Default 1982 Crossfire (0 - 60 time and other specs?)

Anyone know what a 1982 Crossfire will do 0-60 mph and how many Gs it might pull on a skidpad. Any other specs or source of specs would be great.
I'm taking delivery of a Bright Blue Metallic one for the wife in about a week.

Superfast, It dosen't happpen to say somewhere else in that article if it was a L-48 or a L-82 does it. If you could check it would be greatly appreciated. I didn't know they required 91 octane fuel.

The '82s were all L-83 - 200hp Cross-fire injection engines. They all came with 700R4 4spd autos. The L48/L82 combo was retired in 1980 - 1981 had one year only 190 hp L-81.
