Default Re: Looking for 1970's statistics

1968 @ Pontiac

(1) New round port RA2 400 engine, with 041 cam.

(2) New A-body design.

(3) Open chamber D-port heads.

(4) New 350 engine, including a 350HO.

The '68 Birds have probably been the most popular drag Pontiac body, ever. No telling how many '68 Birds have been used for Stock racing.

I suppose the most famous were driven by Truman Fields & Mike McKinney. Between them, they have several big race wins, class wins, & nat records, driving '68 Birds.

There have been several '68 Bird Stockers run mid to low 10's. Some are still active. Have also been some '68 GTO Stockers, thru the years. None active that I've seen on any Q-list, lately.

Not many big '68 Pontiac Stockers, that I'm aware of. The "Walton's Mountain" car is the only one I have a pic of.
