That RAIV GTO is heavy and runs low 10's! stock block, cast iron heads, actual not bogus intake runner CCs. He only turns the 400: 6500 RPM where we turn the 428: 8700 & the 455: 8300.

Thanks for the updated info Lynn. Since my buddy started this thread it has become a sorce of great info. Good luck on future endeavours with your car (skipping the 8's). I am finding out there MANY really fast Pontiacs out there. It still impresses me that quick numbers are put up by these cars that most people misunderstand. Pontiacs are not small block chevys!!!
I agree that the NHRA is a good place to race. I think it was better when Wally Parks was in charge. He had great people around him and wanted the organization to run smoothly.
