Engine
Chevrolet ’ s big-block was designed for high performance . The base 325-horse engine came with a cast crank and two-bolt mains . The 350- and 375-horse engines included a forged crank . All 375-horse engines included four-bolt mains .
Handling
The four corner coil spring ride was relatively soft for a muscle car and pushing it into hard turns proved to be a difficult – if not a near impossible – task . The optional F41 suspension added a rear anti-sway bar that improved its cornering ability .
