Incorrect. That is the original badge for 1970 only. In 1971 they went to the colored badge.

@slade bonge M-20's, M-21's, T-10s, and other manual did appear in Z-28's AFTER 1970 but the 70 1/2 Z-28's with manuals came STANDARD with an M-22. In 1970, unless you ordered an automatic, the Z-28's only came with the M-22. I owned one of them, as did my best friend, and also a coworker. All of them had M-22's. I have rebuilt M20's, M-21's, M-22's, and even a T-10 and I know the history of those transmissions well. The manual transmissions in the 70 Z-28's had a very distinctive whine due to the M-22s straight cut gears. M-20's and 21's have helical cut gears which makes them quieter. The M-21 even had the same gear ratio's as the M-22 but everything in the M-22 was stronger. The 11:1 compression ratio of the LT1 produced higher torque and horsepower than the Z-28's from 71 on up. The LT1 was the standard engine for the 70 Z-28 and the M-22 was the only manual GM paired with 1970 Z-28's and LT1 optioned Corvettes. The M-22 was NOT a special order item on the 1970 Z-28. It was part of the Z-28 package. I have never seen any OFFICIAL GM document that confirms what you are claiming. Believe whatever you want but you are wrong.

@slade bonge Lighten up Francis. I never said you couldn't get an automatic in the 70 1/2 Z-28 and never brought up AC. As a retired automation and robotics engineer I would love to see what an F-body "FACTORY ASSEMBLY MANUAL" looks like. Why don't you post a picture of your "FACTORY ASSEMBLY MANUAL". I've worked in manufacturing my entire adult life. The last job I had I worked for Thyssen Krupp System Engineering. They build the robots and automation responsible for building and testing engines, transmissions, and rear axels for nearly every car manufacturer on the planet. I have written programs for machines that build portions of engines and then had to write the operators' manuals for those machines. I would love to see what a "FACTORY ASSEMBLY MANUAL" looks like. I would guess it might look something like the Understanding Women book seen here: www.flickr.com/photos/109161978@N03/49146230943 I can only assume you got taken when you bought your Z-28 and the idea of being scammed is bothering you.

@slade bonge That's not how it works. You claimed you had a "FACTORY ASSEMBLY MANUAL" that would support your claims. So show me.

@slade bonge You are using some fanboys website as your source of information. And the very first sentence in the engine information is incorrect. "Engine: Includes special 350 CID, 360-bhp V-8 derived from Corvette LT-1." The LT-1 was originally developed for the Z-28, not the Corvette. The LT-1 in the Corvette was factory rated to have slightly more power than the LT-1 in the Z-28. Zora Arkus Duntov was not going to have a Z-28 with more power than a Vette. The engines are part for part identical according to factory parts manuals. The only thing different was the Vettes had "rams horn" exhaust manifolds which might account for the discrepancy. 1970 Z-28's with 4 speeds came with "heavy-duty" close ratio 4 speeds. The M-22 is the only Muncie to have the "heavy-duty" moniker. Your "source" confirms this as does this website. I don't know which site copied the other but they both have a lot of the exact same information worded exactly the same. www.ss396.com/cars/1970-Camaro/ One last thing, "Grampa" was building engines, rebuilding transmissions, and doing a frame-off restoration of his Z-28 probably before you were born. It looks like I may actually have grandchildren before you post your "FACTORY ASSEMBLY MANUAL".

@slade bonge Believe whatever you want to believe. The source you provided doesn't support your claim. Where is that "FACTORY ASSEMBLY MANUAL" you claimed to possess? How hard would it be to take a picture of the manual and the page "which clearly states otherwise"? I'll let you have the last word for now. This is boring to me.

Wreckzz Tutorials The RS was a heavier car.

At least they didn’t try to fake it and they left the original full front bumper in place.

As a member of the Disabled American Veterans, some of us that can't drive a stick are mighty happy for the ones that are automatics.

@@anthonynelson9136 I hear you Anthony. I nearly lost my right leg many years ago. Surgeries, skin graphs, and two years recovering. My years were during our time in Vietnam. My comments are intended to convey frustration at how relatively few hot rods and muscle cars within the car culture are manuals. A manual just sounds cooler when you run through the gears. I come from a time in my youth ( mid to late 60's) when automatics were usually disdained at car gatherings. Different world from now.

@@jimhenry6844 It's all good.

@@anthonynelson9136 Roger that,my friend.

That's an option ,not standard equipment

U don’t drive a $100,000 car like this in the winter

@port nut Exactly. A true numbers matching '70 Z28 with almost all new parts would bring $50 grand at least. If it had the RS option, more like $55 grand or so.

Ok tell me the years the Camaro emblem on the nose came in red and which were only done in chrome, and which Camaro's had "By Chevrolet" and where was that exactly? from the 2nd gen without cheating then.

@@rexsterlingbuchanan2929 '71-73. '70 on the trunk/deck lid. My turn: What option did you have to have on a '67-'69 Camaro to get rear armrests? Trivia question: In a 1969 Camaro Z/28 how many possible tach redline and max rpm tachs were produced and what were they? Game set and match.

@@WoodedAcres oh man I don't know the answer to that one. To be honest I didn't know they came with rear armrest. And the different RPM tachometer would be depending on which motor option you got I think it went from 6000 to 7500 not for certain right now it's been awhile. Great question

That's cuz mopars don't go fast enough to hurt anything

@@williepelzer384 any 340 Mopar will smoke any Chevy big block. Baddest motor ever made beside the 🐘 elephant motor

In the early 70 s I raced all models of mopars don't recall getting beat in the quarter mile by any of them. 67 Chevelle 327-400 turbo. 456 gears.

@@williepelzer384 poor memory due to aging

And the slowest or as you put it baddest was the 383 dog motor in their 3 ton cars.

Hans Anderson 4th gear is a 1:1 ratio and is the same for all 3 Muncie trans, M20, M21 and M22.

Well, I do know that the M21 and M22 are "close ratio" gearboxes. The M20 is a "wide ratio" gearbox. All of you can look up the gear ratios on the internet.

As said above non have an overdrive gear. All 1:1 final drives.

Boss302 Stang front part of unibodies have frames. They unbolt.

Well, the sub frame comes off, the leaf springs come off and the rear comes off. Soooooooooooo.

John Milner yes you noticed that as well as me. Plus there’s a few little tiny things that are incorrect.
