From what I understand (certainly could be wrong), the 744 cam was offered very early in RAIII availability then removed from production RAIII engines (GTO) due to cold weather drivability (?) and valvetrain noise/issues. The cam was gone from production engines well before the Judge was unveiled in Jan. '69. Remember, this was the early Ram Air cam in late 66, 67, & 68 (before the RAII) along with mandatory 3.90 gears (Firebird 400's)/4.33 gears (GTO) and HD cooling.
