Default RE: 426 hemi vs 454 ls6

you do understand that in the muscle car era, 340 cudas were stomping big block chevys, right? there are a few factory big block cars that run in my class back in pittsburgh, and theyre lucky to get into the 13s...

the trim lines that you guys are defending were just as special edition as the factory built hemi monsters...

this list is all over the internet, and these all share reputable sources, notice, 4th and 5th were part of the same test. ie highlighted a few of note...the numbers speak for themselves...these are factory full production cars,....no yenkos, no hemi darts...
