The Chevelle is one of Chevrolet’s most famous muscle cars of all times, it made a respectable name for it’s self in the muscle car world, during it’s run as a muscle car it could hold it’s own with the best of them, there were a lot of different versions of the Chevelle and they were one of the best examples of a muscle car out there.

They were heavily optioned, big and powerful cars, my personal favorite years for the Chevelle were 1967 and 1970, these cars made a real statement, they were long and wide, and had the true muscle car look and feel about them, the Chevelle was a true muscle car icon from the late 1960’s & early 1970’s.

The LS6 454

The biggest performance option for 1970 was the “LS6 454”; it produced 450 HP @ 5600 RPM and built 500 lb-ft of torque @ 3600 RPM. It has high compression pistons and rectangle port cylinder heads, along with a solid lifter camshaft. Few other muscle cars could rival the power of the LS6.

The Muncie M22 Rock Crusher 4 speed transmission

With 500 ft-lb of torque, only two transmissions were able to handle the LS6 engine. The Muncie M22 rock crusher, which supposedly got its name from having diamonds dropped in to the gearbox, and it, crushed the rocks before it chewed the gears out of the transmission. .

With the SS package came an upgraded suspension system known as the F41 suspension, it basically had stiffer springs to handle the extra weight of the big block engine that was stuffed in to this wicked ride, a full length 2.5 inch dual exhaust also came standard on the SS models.
