    And cars, I guess..

    The modern equivalent would be a bunch of plastic bullshit and dash applique.

    Cool find ... that W-30 option on the 442 had some different things associated with it.

    I didn't google this ... but I think Olds had a water ingestion problem with those low air induction intakes.

    That ad talks how fast they were ... IIRC, the big dog back then was the 454ci/450hp Chevelle (without COPO orders) :burnrubber:

    That would be 1970, and yes the 454/450 was big dog for bowtie for 70, but in the right hands a W30 or Stage 1 Buick would smoke an LS6 or Hemi. Lot's of contenders back then, no clear winner.

    I think you are thinking the Turbocharged Olds F-85 Jetfire aluminum block 215 CI V8 that did use water injection in 1962-63. For a few decades later Land Rover used that aluminum block.

    I think the fastest from that era was the '69 Road Runner with the 440 six pack with a 4spd & 4:10's; it'd do the 1/4 in under 13 seconds out of the factory. I don't think the Chevelle's ever broke 13 (in stock form)

    This is very true. Everything was within a few 10ths of each other, so a good start and a good driver was definitely the key determining factor

    Not to mention being/having a good mechanic, lol. Between points-style ignitions, mechanical distributors, solid lifters, adjustable timing, and multiple carburetors with multiple barrels, you really had to stay on top of maintenance to keep everything running at peak performance.
