Default Re: 1970 gto judge ram air IV

I can tell you this, I've been into Pontiac's for over
30 years, and own just about every GTO made. In 1969
a friend and I were sponsored by Gorton Tire and Speed
and race a 1969 Judge, I was a member of Royal Pontiac, which was later bought out by George Delorean and Called Leader Automotive, George is John Delorean's brother, incase you didn't know, George also at one time work for Pontiac, and had a lot of connections. He also built
the Ram Air 1V motor for the 69 Judge we Raced. The only Ram Air V's sold where to racing Pontiac sponsored dealerships.

There is NO WAY any 1970 GTO came or was order with a Ram Air V trust me if it was at all possible I would've had one. I did how ever get to see a 1970 Firebird race team Called "Steven Pontaic" at Conn Drag Way ( now closed ) these guys were running 10.80's with a Ram Air V motor, they were also sponsored by Pontaic.

Wanger's was just and add man, all though to listen to the crap and books that's out their now you would think he invented the GTO, NOT true. although he tired to take credit. By the way I still own a 1970 Ram Air 1V Judge, all original. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/no.gif[/img]
