Re: The Humbler
You probably are talking about the VOE -Vacuum Operated Exhaust. This system used a vacuum switch to operate exhaust cutouts. There was a switch on the dash to operate the VOE. Very desirable option and probably pretty expensive if you find one. I've only seen a couple of GTOs with them.
The nickname "The Humbler" came from an ad campaign Pontiac ran for the 1970 GTO. I have the ad around the house somewhere, if I find it I'll try to post it here. As I recall the tag line at the end of the ad was "Any Questions?" They had some pretty clever ads back in the day.
