0-60 in 6 seconds?

[intergalactica]

I was on this web page and it says that the '68 Dart GTS had published 0-60 times of 6 seconds with a 340.

Were they really that quick?

yes, ask anyone who had a stock 383 dart back in the day.

Thats because of the crappy tires they had, 6 sec 0-60 is about what a 15sec car runs.

Yep a carb tune, dist. curve and better tires with 80/20 shocks low 14s and about 5.5 0-60 in the day I recall!
