Is that a type-o? The 73 GTO (which is super-rare and is really just a rebadged Ventura/Nova) only had the Pontiac 350. If you meant 72, that makes a lot more sense to me. If the '73 GTO really DID have the 455 on the options list (I really don't think it did), it would have been a low-compression, nothing special engine and therefore, I wouldn't worry too much about it. Rochester Q-jets are more of a "one size fits all" carb than something like a Holley . . . at least I THINK they are.
