Sorry man, you dont know your classics very well...
65 and 66 were the only years to get the tri-power...
and it was an option on the 389, not standard.
67 got the new 400 single quad motor.

He was talking about the tri-power option..
3 two barrel carbs instead of 1 four barrel
three deuces, tri-power, six pack, were all common nicknames for it.

KICKASS! A TRUE GTO! My personal favorites are the 3rd gen ones though, where they went back to horizontal styling. 69 or so I believe?

However, I actually hope GM makes the new 6.4 V8, which would be going in the GTO and Corvette, because thats as close as you can get to the original motor displacement-wise.

3rd gen?
1964-1967 & 1968-1972, there was only one major redesign...the bodies changed subtley from year to year.
There "3rd gen" would be the new GTO's

IIRC, they started off with horizontal headlights, then went to verticle, then back to horizontal, hold on while I get a pic...

Aha! Here it is. 72 GTO:


I dont know that you can really classify Muscle Cars under 'generations' like you can today, where the average one lasts 7 years, although back then, some cars changed practically every year, GTO was one, Camaro, Charger too IIRC.

Ooooo! Heres a cool pic!!
