Its a movie and made for entertainment. Are any movies serious down to a T? No. I'm not saying this movie was fantastic by any means, but geez, give it a rest.

Produced? Yenkos were factory cars. It was modified by Yenko who I believe was the owner of a Chevy dealership.

your correct. modified, then brought to factory attention to reduce the amount of labor and effort to convert 396 cars into 427i cars and to reduce warranty problems.
