Another video of old school muscle cars going head to head in 1/4 mile battle. The cars are competing in the Pure Stock Drags and modifications are very limited (see rules below).
In one lane is a 1970 Buick GS455 which didn't have the Stage 1 option and therefore 5,582 were built. The GS (Grand Sport) is powered by Buick's 455 Cubic Inch (7.4 Liter) V8 which was rated at 350 horsepower and 510 lb-ft of torque which is only 10 horsepower less than the Stage 1. We'd be willing to bet the Stage 1 is a lot stronger than 360 horsepower.
In the other lane is a pony car, the 1969 Ram Air III Firebird 400. The Ram Air III 400 was rated at 335 Horsepower and 430 lb-ft of torque. The same motor was rated at 366 horsepower in the GTO.
The Ram Air Firebird is equipped with 4 speed manual transmission, and the Buick GS455 has the Turbo 400 automatic. So WHO WINs? Buick or Pontiac?? 4 Speed or Automatic ??
Comment below and tell us what you think and which car you'd rather own after watching the video...
