The wheelbase deal is a given, longer wheelbase cars are at a disadvantage and like most other Stocker/SS's running same engine combos there is a different hp rating on them, though I could be mistaken?

RJ, You might remember the Gilbert Johnson Impala. It was real fast for a 283 SS car, index wise.
They managed to get hp piled on it more than once. So much so that their rating was somewhat higher than the Chevy II's and Chevelles., at that time.
In other words, the 119" big Impala 283 could make more hp in that body style.
That was a big glitch in the system, in my opinion.
