<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: GTO_DON</div><div class="ubbcode-body">It's a mistake. When I bought my LS6 chevelle in 1983 I remember looking for literature and I came upon a brochure that said it went 0-60 in 4.6 seconds and they are a hell of alot faster than any stock 409 I've driven. </div></div>

I suspect it's due to the use of hand held stop watches.

Similar to the C&amp;D article on the '64 GTOs - when Wangers saw the times the authors were posting he knew they couldn't be real but he just smiled and didn't say anything.
