Question about the 1966 L-72

[olredalert]

----I have seen several 450hp rated window stickers for 66 Corvettes. My cousin ordered a new 66 big-block Corvette in May of 65. When it came in just a week before opening day, I noticed that it was serial # 700 (even). It had a black air cleaner lid and only a 427 decal, no HP decal at all. My own 66 was delivered in May of 66 and was rated at 425hp. I have also seen 400hp window stickers for early 66 Corvettes that appeared to be 390hp. I owned an early 400hp Corvette. Wish I still had it. No big body 66 Chevys were ever rated at 450hp or 400hp in my opinion. The high rating was strictly a Corvette thing.......Bill S
