Well, they made about 700 cars like this, and most of them were sticks. That car will give a Hemi fits! Would be nice to see that race the Mopar, a W-30, and an L78 - who would win?

Those old Ram Air motors can work pretty well. I had a '68 Ram Air automatic Firebird that was balanced and blueprinted and with the Royal Bobcat kit and headers. I ran a '68 L78 Chevelle and beat it by about a car length. Years later I found out that it wasn't an L78 at all but rather the guy had installed a 427. Made me smile. I like my Chevies but there are some other very nice street engines out there.

My friends brother had picked one up back then--red with a black vinyl roof...His was optioned with the High-Output 400HO engine(Ram Air) 400 turbo also with 433 gears ----Thought this might be a similar set-up....
Post some more photos when you get the chance........ |

There's a difference between a 400 HO and the Ram Air engine - they are two different motors. The only thing they shared was their hp rating.
