I had a 68 monaro..the first of the 2 door coupes..had a 186 in it...for all of a week...was swapped out for a 400 chev small block bored out to 412 ci and tunnel rammed amongst all the other work running twin 600 holleys about a foot out the bonnet , amounted to 580 rwhp on Dyno , which I will add was a lot 30 yrs ago when I built it. Now THAT sounded better than the 186....
