What is the power of engine pontiac bonneville 1967

Depends on the size of the engine. They manufactured several engines for the large vehicles. The V8 350, V8 400 and the V8 428. These had many possible horsepower outputs depending on the cubic inch size, intake, exhaust and weather they were a "Super Duty" or High Output" engine. It could have had a 2-barrel or 4-barrel carburetor, or even a special order Tri-Power in 1967. The Tri-Power is 3 2-barrel carburetors.
The horsepower ratings ran from 265hp to 390hp. I would say if your 1967 Bonneville has the original engine it may well have been a first year V8-428 running either 375hp or 390hp. Check on the (*facing the engine) "Head" , front face, behind the A/C, you should see 2-letters stamped, such as: WG, YH, WJ, or YK.
These letters designate which block-type the V8-428 is. Which will tell what horsepower it was rated at. If it happens to be a V8-428 with the very rare special-order only Tri-Power intake it is said they were rated at 425 horsepower!

If you can locate a "Motor Auto Repair Manual" from the 1960's (1961 through 1967) it will list the engine identifications, block marking, as an example a V-8 428 "YH" engine was rated at 370hp with an automatic transmission. The manual will list a multitude of information about the full mechanical workings of those Pontiacs. I have several, they are great. These manuals list many automobile makes and models made during those years.
Good luck, and I hope this helps!
