Default Re: any 1968 firebird experts on here??

Back in '68 I had a Ram Air I Firebird. I read somewhere that there were less than 100 of these with the automatic. There was a pan attached to the underside of the hood and a breather something similar to the '70 SS Chevelle piece. There were no flappers to open and close the ram air intake as on later cars. The engine was blanced and blueprinted. There wasn't anything more, at the time, that you could do and still call it stock. In its day, it was a pretty decent performer beating an L72 powered '68 Chevelle on one occasion. I never did see a RA II car but there was a RA I 4 speed car in the area. Either Ram Air car would be nice. Send me your e-mail address Andy and I'll send you some photos.
