Chevrolet L78 402 engine assembly

engine · Chevrolet

Local crop showing hood, cowl, and front sheetmetal context. 1970 Chevrolet Nova SS 396 L78

Why It Matters

The 1970 Chevrolet L78 engine assembly is tracked separately from earlier 396-cubic-inch L78 records because 1970 sources market the SS 396 while detailed engine tables identify the big-block as 402 cubic inches.
