Well, that explains why there's no studs on the bolts for the preheater...lol

Hey Guys,

Thanks for the information!!!

Muscle Collector, the pictures you posted seem to be correct. I have talked with another RA II GTO owner and his is the same way. His car still had the heat shield in place. From what he said, these cars were dilivered with the regular air cleaner on the engine with the ram air components in the trunk therefore the car should have the heat shield. The heat shield attaches to the studs on the head bolts. Now I have to get a heat shield.

Thanks Again!!!
