78's were so under powered, the flatty has to be an improvement.

In actuality, the lowest HP in a production Vette was in 1975 (if you overlook the original 6-cylinder '53 & '54 cars which were rated at 150 hp). 1975 C3 Base Corvette Power: 165 HP / Acceleration (0-60 MPH): 7.7 seconds Coop . |

Awesome car. I got a nice tour of one in a Walmart parking lot a couple of months back. One of the switches is a "drag" mode which prevents any tire slippage and keeps it completely straight! Old guy like me and loved showing it off Glenn |

I like 'em both too, but I keep mine separate.

Re: Here’s a guy that likes flatheads & Vettes
I too have had 15 nice older Vetts in all, between '56 up to '73.
I went to Cobras about 20 years ago, so I've had 3 of them, all 427's. .
