70 Judge RAIV and V continuation

[John Glasgo]

I can say from experience that the RA 5 was not the dog that everybody acts like,the 69 GTO that i did with the 5 motor,stock GTO exhaust manifolds,2.5 kinked full exhaust system,4.88 gears ran a 12.4 at 111.00,this was in a concours show car.It pulled hard to 7000 rpm,i drove it once when i first finished it with no exhaust,and 2 foot dumps,that car flat out flew,the exhaust really hurt it.I have had every Pontiac motor made,the RA5 car was definetely the neatest.the biggest flaw with the motor was that the rods were junk,and most of them let go before the true potential of the motor was realized.
