The 1966 Corvette with the L72 engine was a high performance, big block V8 offering incredible power, with a 427 cubic-inch displacement, advertised at 425 or 450 hp, but often underestimated in this actual output. Praised for strong acceleration, impressive performance metrics like a 12.8 second quarter mile, and a tight responsive feel, despite it's heavy front end, this combination was considered a top tier, desirable, and high value Corvette option.
