Default Re: '68 Yenko, Transplant vs. COPO

I believe the 1967-68-69 L88 Corvette and ZL1 Camaro used the 850 Holley DP. When the Gibb/Harrell ZL1 went to its first race it failed tech inspection for not having the correct factory numbers on the Holley. It was discovered to have a 780 Holley on it instead of the correct 850 Holley. When Cars magazine tested Charlie's #3 ZL1 it had the incorrect 780 and still ran 13.16 @ 110.21. I'm surprised no L88s or ZL1s have shown up at the Pure Stock Drags. They sould be among the quickest factory built cars ever made.
