That C3 would ride like a bucket of bolts. I understand the history and the rarity, but all that hoopla for 370 gross hp. I'd rather have an LT5 ANY day fo the week. But again, I'm not a guy who props his ego by the cars he owns and ever drives. Ive never understood that.

Runs like a 400+ rwhp car and is a light weight high rever. That 350 engine comes live at 5K.

440 GTX is torque monster and a porker. The first gen. LT5 with a good set of rear tires will clean the 440's clock. Hook it up and she's gone.
I had a 440+6 Challenger back in the day, and used it very well.
