Somehow I completely missed this post earlier.

I think that has been an open-end question for some time now with various answers. The codes from GTOwolf's Bsheet should lead to some more definite answers though.
Thanks for sharing the bulletin regarding the RA stuff being dealer installed. So, how would the vehicle ship from the factory? With a regular or some kind of temporary air cleaner?
The same Air Cleaner mounted as a Base Engine GTO. Single Snorkel with a Chrome Lid. The Air Cleaner Code on GTOwolf's Bsheet is the same code as all 3 Base Engine (WT and YS) GTO Bsheets I have on file.
Am going to re-post Wolfman's Bsheet and another Bsheet from a 1 option Base WT GTO in another post later - so all things can be compared easily.
Were the closed scoops and temporary cleaner provided to the customer so they could reinstall when needed?
That is our understanding. But hard to say what might have actually happened with every car at every dealership.
Do we have any photos showing how the engine bay looked as shipped? (Without the RA stuff installed)
Not that I can recall.
Excellent thread!
There is another one with a lot of info also - Roll Call for the 68 Firebird Ram Air II's in the 67-69 Bird Department.
