360 vs 383

Yes, very common in the C-bodies to find a 4500 lbs car with 2.76 gears and a 15" tire. Single exhaust, tight converter, and really never given a chance. But when given a "semi" chance to perform, they ran right with the crowd of that era.
Actually, it's amazing how many famous "muscle cars" ran mid 14's to even low 15's. I think many versions of a 383 car, and 360 vehicles too, were well into the 14's in the 1/4 mile. Just not in C-bodies with 2.76 gears and single exhaust... LOL. I think they were on par for the era.
