Old horsepower Versus New horsepower

I really dont think an L will ever reach the status of some of those old muscle cars. A 1970 Chevelle SS with the 454 was the last of a dying breed. After the gas crisis in 1971, they cut the horsepower way back on those gas guzzling carburated beasts. So, for years they didnt makes anything that could even touch the power of those cars. Now with the technology we have and the effeciency of fuel injection, we can see the same horsepower with better emissions on todays cars.
