2 stock spec questions
What is the stock horse power, and 0-60 for my 1976. Anyone know this one?
The only thing I have done to my car so far is new cat backs (BORLA) a tune up...

Stock L48 was rated at 180 HP. The L82 was rated at 210 HP.
0 to 60 time you needed a sun dial.
Definitly not the fastest Vette out there.
