Bill: You are so right! Those were good times!
Do you remember the night we were coming home from Dukes? We ran off the cars on Rt. 83. Stretch and Emo in his LS6 Corvette, you and Marty in the fuely '63, and I was in the 409.

Tonawanda records.

Rick, I believe the Tonawanda records show units &quot;shipped&quot;, and not necessarily to assembly plants for production installation. Example. Tonawanda records show over 15,000 '62 409s shipped but only a little over 8,000 were installed in cars.

You would need to find Chevrolet records showing how many RPO L89 options were installed in '69 models.

I have to dig for this, I remember the document showing units for installation and the number of service order engines.

Yea...the race was really between me and Stretch. I thought for sure he would have beat the 409 with that nasty LS6 Corvette, but.....the old girl was really hauling ass that night and all he saw was my six taillights!
