The reason that GM did not publish this stuff was they were ashamed of exactly how bad the quality of most of their cars built in the 70's really were. -- Now this came straight from a GM engineer around 1985, there not my words. So this begs the question WHY did it still take them about 25 years to even get as close as they are now to meeting the quality of the imports. Before anyone gets their feathers ruffled, many people, and even some reviews of cars now claim GM is producing the best quality cars ever- are the new cars a match for the imports? Some think so.
