Need help with old Chevy versus Mopar debate

Impala against a Dart? Kinda apples to oranges isn't it? A 66 L79 Chevy II could give a lot of BB muscle cars a run for their money back in the day.

Keep in mind power to weight ratio, in the ET comparison above, it is an Impala vs a Dart, basically a "big car " vs a "compact". More accurate comparison would be a 68 Nova or Camaro vs the Dart. Impala weighs 4340 lbs, the Dart 3200ish? In reality the Impala needs a big block to be a performer IMO.

you're both right BUT - the statement/question is "One says the Chevy 327 always beat the Mopar 340 (and even the 440)." - so I was simply pointing out how totally ridiculous that is.. and I did end with "- depends on what you put it in and who is driving!"
