From everything I've read, the stunt 55 had the 454 and the Race 55 had a 427 w/ alum heads..The 55 camera car was the one used in AG

Interesting. These guys say a different story on their opening page...

I had read somewhere else the camera car had a small block in it. Not trying to argue, I just want to get the right info so I'm not repeating the wrong info :)

Even if the above site is wrong about the engines, if you scroll through the forums they have a lot of cool pics from the movie. It's worth checking out

No worries. I messed up. I ment... "on camera car".. Also the "stunt car" was used in AG. The "camera car"(the one with rigging) was not..

"there were 3 cars built for the movie, a camera car, an on camera car & a stunt car with a full cage, the on camera car was also repainted & used in american graffitti".
