so a lil race after carshow.
i was just comming home with the g/f. and in front of me was a red 70? 442. very nice car. and these kids in a 00-02 grand am get right on my@$$, it looks like he had a billet grill. i was like wtf? so its about 3 miles of 1 lane road, and then it come up to a 2 lane split with a turning lane into walmart. so i get next to the guy in the 442 and ask him what it has. he says 400, ever since i started talking to him the kids are in the turning lane reving up the grand am (stock muffler) i was like what ever so i finally look over at the kid and he says "that thing F*cking sucks" and turns lol. anywho the light turns green and me and the 442 floor it. he sreched into second so i know he was tring. anywho i was about 2 leanths after 70 mph... finally a real kill for the LT1.

nice, my dad had a 70' 442 w30stick convert when he was 17. got rid of it after a couple years cause he said it got like 7 miles to the gallon or something and couldn't afford to fill it up twice a day going to school and back. those cars are worth a pretty penny today.
btw, he said his dynoed at 400+whp stock

Motor Trend tested a 442 W-30 with a 4-speed manual transmission and 3.91:1 rear gears, clocking a quarter mile time of 14.2 seconds @ 102mph (164km/h). However, Motor Trend noted that Oldsmobile engineers had earlier posted a best of 13.7 seconds on the same test car with a fresh tune.
