maybe theres a middle ground on that statement from Joel... he was probably vague in his response.

The reality of it was Joel and the gang didnt know about the COPO 427 program early enough to get into it for their cars.. And by the time they did , it probably didnt matter anyway because they were using the L-88 (not L-72) for most of their customers anyway. In the long run it may have also been cheaper for them to use an over the counter L-88 instead of starting with a COPO built car anyway.

at least thats what my thoughts were on Joels statement. To believe he hadnt heard about the program AT ALL is nonsensical especially if marty put one in his magazine.
