This is what H.O. "may" have been in the 69 GTO: A M.T. manual transmission T(GTO) car could have had a 9785744 H cam. This cam may have been optional without RAIII, and therefore labeled H.O.

This is my theory and I'm looking for something to back it up. It's interesting to me and I love anything to do with 69's.

The issue is whether Ram Air was standard with the 400HO in the GTO. I don't think the cam has anything to do with it. If there's a cam issue, it has to do with cars coming with auto tranny or stick cars with AC.

RAM AIR WAS ABSOLUTLY STANDARD WITH THE WS AND YZ MOTOR. IN 68 THE WS OR YZ COULD BE WITH OR WITHOUT RAM AIR. THE H CAM WAS DISCONTINUED EARLY ON AND REPLACE WITH THE S GRIND. HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH RAM AIR.

So you're agreeing with me - cool - but it is not true that Ram Air was available on the HO in 1968. It could have been dealer-installed, however.

i made a mistake when i thoufght about it. i think the code would change to wi with ram air in 68 and they all had 433's in the rear. we are dead on with the 69's,im sure. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif

I have not been able to find any proof to support my opinion. I have an issue of The Legend that has some of this stuff, but it's in storage. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/frown.gif
