the shovel SS was a bad ass car, but it was only par with the e-body hemi cudas...as car reviews go, the cuda was slightly quicker. but they were both around 13.1xs...

the 442 would be over a half second slower, with a reported stock time of 13.88.

you can also argue that the COPO cars were the best, but i think that if youre going by reported performance numbers, the quickest of the late 60s cars would be either a 426 hemi dart or cuda...a tiny car, with no accessories, and a TON of power. they were capable ot tens, "STOCK".
