A 1970 GTO Judge takes on a 1968 Camaro SS396 in a quarter mile drag race. Pontiac vs Chevrolet, who wins?
Both cars are competing in the Pure Stock Drags, so modifications are very limited. The only modifications permitted are minor porting, blue printing and minor weight reduction without altering the stock appearance. Camshafts and compression ratio have to be within a small percentage of stock specs. That means stock intake manifold, stock exhaust manifolds and street tires (See more below).
The 1970 GTO Judge in the video is powered by Pontiac's potent 400 cubic inch Ram Air III (6.6L) which was rated at 366 horsepower and 445 lb-ft of torque. This particular GTO has a Turbo 400 3 speed automatic transmission and 3.73 positraction rear end.
The 1968 Camaro SS 396 in the other lane is extremely rare as only 272 L78 Camaro's were built in 1968 with the L89 aluminum head option. The SS396 Camaro in the video is powered by Chevy's potent, solid lifter, high winding big block 396 cubic inch (6.5 L) RPO L78 which was rated at 375 horsepower and 415 lb-ft of torque. The L78 is a legend with Chevy Big Block fans. The Camaro has a Muncie 4 speed manual transmission and 4.10 posi rear in the 12 bolt housing.
