There's a minor style advantage to the 67.5 over the '70 in my view. I come
from a delightful '66 Austin-Healey and I prefer the pre-68 311 dash and
lower windshield.

But the 5-bearing 1600 and the dual circuit brakes have tipped me towards
the 68-70 over the years. Plus, when shopping, there were far more good
examples to pick from with the 68-70 series.
