great story and I learned that.....

By blinker - 10/30/2003 3:05:42 AM; IP 205.188.209.102

the 390 GT was not the dog that the magazines have made it out to be and
have continually trashed for the last 37 years. The way they tell it,it was a anchor, ran out of breath, etc. At least it appears to be superior to the base 389's and 396's. You mention the frighteningly fast LS6 454. It was a beast, but ever wonder what that black Cobra coupe could have done with slicks/headers? Also, don't know if its true, but I've heard a good stick man could get more performance out of a car than a C-6 could deliver, especially considering the hp the C-6 soaks up.

This thread, so far...
