1970 Buick GSX Stage 1



   "1970 Buick GSX Stage 1"
   
   Usually appearing a canary-like yellow, the 1970 Buick GSX Stage 1 sings with unearthly power and privileged potency.  Not to get too metaphysical about this bird, but the Canary Totem fuels the ability to feel and express emotions--and boy, does this big block sing on the blacktop.  Here are some specs and performance levels from this Classic vehicle--here we go:
  
455 Cubic Inches--total 8-Cylinder.

Horsepower:  Listed at 360; however, more in the range between 415 to 425.

510 pounds-foot of torque--imagine all that power going to the wheels!!!

Hurst 4-Speed Manual.

0-60:  5.5 Seconds.

Quarter Mile:  13.38 Seconds.

Top Speed:  Never can tell, but I bet she could hold 144 for a protracted period.
