Tubernaut,

What happened to your Dad's 68 GTO? I have a Mayfair Maize 68 Convertible! You don't suppose it's your Dad's? I bought in Texas, but it was made in Michigan, so perhaps it speant it's early years in Michigan. Black top, black interior, and a 4 speed.

[Tubernaut]

My late father had a 1968 GTO convertible finished in mayfair maize.

[TheHoffmanBiker]

i got a hardtop in that color, solar red

HO & Ram Air III engines have approx. 375-380 horse power. The Ram Air IV engine is pure stock form produces 425 horsepower. I own a Dyno and rebuild these engines all the time. Those are true honest numbers.

At least you didn't post Wikipedia "facts."

One more theft from wikipedia

400 HO

This engine was first offered in 1967 as the third engine in the GTO and Firebird line (after the 400 2 bbl and the base 400)....It produced 360 BHP, and had the cast iron headers. The camshaft was the HO cam with 288/301 duration. It was the top of the line engine until the 400 Ram Air was introduced later in the year. This engine was offered as an option in 1967 thru 1970.

[Steve340]

Anyhow, I ran out of room, We widely accepted as 360 Horse the HO / RA-III We being the people who hot rodded and drove them, I had a 68 with a 389, badged as so, but this may have been rebadged, I hated the 389 anyhow , Since I dont have my tech books from 1980, I guess your smart comment shall go unchecked, good for you !!

[rosenb37]

Oh, another Smart Guy who uses Wikipedia for his endless pool of knowledge - you're a dime a dozen!

[ramitupursnout]

Sweet! I'm in Love.

[Steve340]

NO offense bro, most were 400 HO engnes with 360 horse, unless your talking about the cusp year of the 389 to the 400?

[rosenb37]

You're mistaken about something, but I can't put a finger on it because you're coming from so many wrong directions. Most GTOs had the standard 400/350 engine.

[Steve340]

Ram Air III

The Ram Air III was the base engine in the Judge series of the GTO in 1969 and 1970. It also was the base engine in the Trans Am Firebird of 1969 and 1970. It basically was a Ram Air I with Square Port heads. It utilized the 301/313 duration camshaft of the Ram Air series and produced 360bhp like the HO...but had a slightly longer duration and overlap.

So in closing  Bite my ass

[rosenb37]

This car is a '68, BEFORE the advent of the RAIII.

Additionally, NO OFFENSE BRO but you need to take your own advice. Happy 4th?

[homeskillet1962]

nice car, but ugly white letter tires

[MakaryZtsTeam]

I love PONTIAC GTO 68r

[a40sgal]

It must be a California car with that closed air cleaner.

[ztwntyn8]

man, for a stock cam, it sure idles mean.

[tye68gto]

we have one with m:22 rock crusher and a chrome front bumper

[pontiac2]

sick

[RealityStrikesAgain]

It's not even that car's engine making the noise. If you see closely the when he 'revs' it, the engine doesn't even move one bit. Also, the alternator is no spinning. For that... 2 stars.

[zbertl]

actually it is.  The audio was done seperately from the video.

[dale1966gto]

keep that car. i had a black '68 hardtop with the base 350 hp 400=bone stock. you have a special car that is worh much more that mine was. i love the colors of your car and i think some elbow grease with rubbing compound to remove the oxidation then a good healthy wax..with an electric buffer that should bring out the paint.

you have a bitchin' car that i'd love to own. never sell it.

[emokittyx10]

what kinda exhaust you have? i have the same engine in a81 chevy truck. lots of power. but sounds funny @zbertl

[gtojuice]

Thats a nice goat. I have 68 as well.
