i don't think everybody has a grasp on the topic here, because most of these cars you guys are posting get WAY TOO MUCH credit instead of not enough.

here's one for ya:

1968 Cadillac DeVille
375-HP overhead 90 degrees V-8; bore 4.30, stroke 4.06, displacement 472 cu. in. Max. torque 525 ft.-lbs.
Turbo Hydra-Matic Transmission: Fully automatic, improved torque converter type with fixed stator. Converter multiplies engine torque for increased driving thrust to drive wheels during acceleration in any gear (low, intermediate or high).
