1983 Chevy Monte Carlo SS

   
   "1983 Chevy Monte Carlo SS"
   
   Not having the muscle car magazines of my adolescence, I'm putting these specs and performance levels together based on different resources; thus, there are facts here; however, approximations as well.  I was a bit disenchanted with this muscle car's performance; still, I would love to possess one, just for the sleek and symmetrical style of the vehicle.  Here we go:  
  
RWD--an automatic, with a 3-speed gearbox. 

5 liter, having overhead valves, and an 8-cylinder; moreover, 2 valves per cylinder.

Horsepower:  180.

Torque:  225 or 230 ft-lb.

0-60:  8 Seconds.

Quarter Mile Gallop:  16 Seconds.

Top Speed:  Theoretically, around 120 Miles-Per-Hour.
