Thanks for all the love !
 
Right
 
FYI: I was taking a GM training course in Atlanta several years ago as I had a Delco Tech shop and was invited to a lot of great classes. The instructor (Dave Frazier} and I were talking about the GN's and he told me that they were faster then the corvette, (and that PO'd chevy} so they recalled them and de-tuned them with the PROM in the computer all except the ones that the federal government bought. I have never researched it but have no reason not to believe as Dave was really a stand up guy that I knew for many years.

On the money. I dont know about the detuning part, (not saying its not true just first time I heard that) But I do know that the demise of the GN was 2 reasons 1) too fast for its time. Too many fatal accidents involving the gn's and 2) the flagship corvette sales were diminishing because of the Gn, Cheaper faster and more comfy to boot
