Hi Randy,

Haven't talked to you in a long while. I hope everything is fine out your way!

Hi Todd,

I can't answer your question about how many '70 455 GTO's had the optional Ram Air induction, but obviously, the 17 Judges (all automatics) did. The 455 was ordered on 4129 "non-Judge"...

Bob and Orbit,

Yes, you could order the T-41 "GTO Appearance" option on a convertible body style. Again, there were no GTO convertibles made in 1972. That made a lot of potential buyers mad back...

Gerry,

Of all the 70-72 GTOs and LeMans' I've seen apart, I've never come across any with two letter ink stamps by the heater box. I ran this by Scott Tiemann, and he says he's yet to see the...

Hi Leonard,

There could be a number of causes for your carb to hesitate when the secondaries open up. My first instict would be to check to see how loose the secondary air valve is adjusted. Its...

Bob, Don't confuse the T-41 "Endura" option with the actual GTO option, code W62. The GTO option was only available on the 2-door sport coupes (2D27), and 2-door hardtop (2D37). It was NOT...

Bob,
I'd replace the 350 with either a 400 or 455, and stick the original engine in a corner somewhere, protected from the elements. You'd have to spend more money, over and above the rebuild, to...

The '72 service manual was never updated to incorporate the changes made to the '72 455 H.O. carbs, i.e., they had the booster rings like the rest of the '72 lineup. The '72 service manual is doing...

Forrest, I agree with what Rocky has said above. All '72 Q-Jets, even 455 H.O.s, were of the normal 750 cfm casting. Only the '71s had the modifications for increased flow capabilities.

Rocky,

Thanks for the comments on the LeMans. It was, without a doubt, the best Pontiac I've ever owned. It did everything well! Actually, I don't own it anymore, but it has remained in my barn...
