ok, so we've got a consensus that the 603 powered 124 is capable of better than 12 seconds so my 8 second remark on a really healthy example is not far from the mark.
my wagon has NEVER been timed in any way, but it pulls decent hills with a mild load in the back, to 60 very quickly. much more powerful than my 10 second 617 powered 82SD however, I've found that the 10 second SD has an error in the speedo. it's odd AT 70mph it's correct, but 40 to 60 it reads faster than actual, so I need to get the gmeter running on it to see what it really does.
