How would a stock GS455 fare when matched up against full-sized, stock Hemi car in the quarter mile?

There is a compilation from magazine articles of the time were they have listed all tested cars and their E.T.

This was all factory stock cars, brand new.

The Buick GS came third on that list with all Hemi cars below it. The two that beat the Buick was Corvettes.

I think it was Car Craft that put together the list and it was republished in MCR a while ago.

In 1970 the Swedish truck manufacturer Scania came with a new model that had a V8 diesel at almost 1000 cu. in. The most powerful truck engine in Europe! The 1970 Buick 455 had slightly more torque than that truck diesel engine!
