Best Answer

Several engines were available in 1970.

Factory specs were:

Standard 400 350HP@5000RPM

Ram Air III 400 366HP@5100RPM

Ram Air IV 400 370HP@5500RPM

455 360HP@4600RPM

The Ram Air IV motors were way underrated to meet GM's "10lbs per HP" rule. Pontiac did miss a great opportunity by not having a high performance round port engine ready for the 1970 models. The 455HO that was released in 1971 (or better yet the 1973 SD455) would have been an even stronger performer with 10.5:1 compression and the Ram Air IV cam.
