Some Pontiac info on the RAII engine:

I have a pair of 234s dated D10 and D11. A 140 dated C6
The D10 was the original manifold on my WT block.

Thanks for sharing! Here is a article from CARS magazine on a RA II they tested and modified. One of the few magazine articles published about RA II cars. You may have to save image to your computer then zoom in to read the text. There are 6 images so I will have to add the last image in another post.

Really cool old articles and I'm surprised they ran it to 6k rpms

From 1969 Tempest AMA specs:

Can't imagine that. It was about as much as I'd want in a 400!

Maybe because I did not know any better I had a 69 GTO that I would spin to 5,800 to 6,000 all the time. It was rebuilt before I got it and I rebuilt it once in the 10 years I owned it. Nothing fancy just good parts and proper build. I bought the car in 1979. Street raced it, drag raced it, and would drive across state to see my girlfriend in college. It was a WT 4 speed car, 48 heads, with 3.23 gear posi. It had a hood tach and I installed a Sun tach later. If the tachs were accurate it saw that rpm often.
