Default Re: Best Pontiac Powered Stockers

Somebody just posted this pic of a Ray Hunt 2nd gen Bird Stocker. Said it was on the back of a Mid America Speed Center catalog. Looks to be classed D/SA.

The caption says it was running as an SD455 car. But, I've read that the SD455 powered '73 Formulas came with a T/A hood & shaker.

So, maybe the caption is wrong. Maybe it was actually a '72 455HO powered car. Or, maybe NHRA didn't care what hood SD455 Formulas ran.

Anybody know, for sure ? Anybody have any more pics or info about this car ?

This shows that NHRA will allow the SD455 engine to be run in a Formula, a T/A, as well as Lemans, GTO, Grand Prix, & Grand Am, even tho most agree that the SD455 engine was only available in the Bird.
