I guess the '71's are slugs too, because the engines are identical.

My 79 L-82 4spd went 13.02 at 109 with 3:73's on streetires. Ohh I guess the 70 LT-1 Drivetrain helped that!! Now talk about a sleeper

I believe that the only M22 LT1's were ZR1 optioned cars. The numberes are identical for the options, if I remember. I just have no idea why a similar LT1 Corvette brings less than a Z28.

LT1 Corvettes bring less than Z28's because more people had Z28's when they were younger. People are reliving their youth by buying Muscle Cars.

Thomas, I agree. Folks can relate to Camaros and Chevelles easier than to Corvettes. When I had my '66 Shelby, everyone went crazy over it because they all knew somone that had a similar Mustang.
