Would the baddest ’69 Camaro on the planet have an LS engine? I think so…
 
So I just received the latest ‘Camaro Performers’ mag in the mail and noticed that the cover car has one bad-azz ’69 Camaro, and the subtitle says ‘this just might be the baddest ’69 camaro on he planet’ … it may just be…it definitely has the design, paint, interior, wheels, originality, etc… but one thing in particular caught my attention … while looking at the specs I read that this car has a non-ls 383 stroker. Don’t get me wrong, I am a huge fan of the classic 383 stroker, I have one myself and I love it. I am also a huge fan of this car, no doubt that it’s bitchin… but imo the baddest ’69 on the planet should have the latest and greatest in engine performance. It is obviously a matter of preference what engine is best for your car, but knowing that the LS is the most efficient, most powerful engine GM has to offer, I would have to imagine that the baddest ’69 Camaro on the planet should at least have one.

BTW, Congrats to Dave Mausbach for making the CP cover, this car is definitely bitchin! :hail:

I've seen the title "baddest '69 Camaro" given to about 6 cars now. It's an opinion just like anything else. For my two pennies, the baddest '69 has a big block Chevy in it, red paint, and gold wheels. It does racing stuff sometimes.

It's a magazine. They're job is to sell magazines and make bold statements.
