That’s true, the 1/4 mile times, but…factory stock on 6" wide polyglass tires. That’s one reason. The other is the restrictive exhaust manifolds typical of big big blocks of that era. There was no design at all, the ports were not even close to matching, cuz they knew as soon as the buyer got it home, they would slap on a set of headers. That’s it, better tires and headers, and the times dropped drastically. Some dealers put headers in the trunk when they sold em. Yenko put em on for you.
