Default Re: Canadian 1969 Chevelle 300 Deluxe SS, L78, M22

Doug, so back to Marv's W31. It was a 12 sec. car and you still didn't want any of that with your COPO Chevelle? I know Danny B tells me his L78 Nova ran in the 12's. And I always heard about "BENSONS" green L79 Chevy II being really fast too.

Now wouldn't Bozak's Nova with your L72 from the Chevelle be a handful as it pulled the wheels on the street with Danny in there with Murray. What about Ed Van DerTuin's 427 Nova, or Al Bears cars and even "The Christmas Tree", I forget his name of hand. He's from town too.

So a W31 could run with a Yenko Duece back in the day? I always hear that these cars went near as fast as people think? And you can see even Pro Stock was around 9.90 or 10.0 cars in 1970 with all there work too.

John
