RE: 1969 vs 1970 Camaro Z28 ?

True but out of context....

An easy example of what I am talking about...MB had to go from a 4.5L to a 5.5 L to try and get similar performance due to requirements for smog control.

The 69 engines had a newly required Smog Pump which was he first thing bypassed after leaving the dealers lot. By 1972 one literally had to have a 454 to get the same performance as a 1968 350.

What really blows my mind is several European manufacturers are getting over 500 HP out of a 2L 4 banger!
