Hot Shot? well I am a Legend in my own mind.
Hey, I like your car runs great for a N/A deal, wheelie picture looks great, and I bet it sounds bad a## with the large over huge cam. Have a 68 Firebird myself but I don't have all the parts to get it on the road again. I could spout off about how a cast crank, cast rod, 5C headed, Ram Air 4 cam, stock block could give your 9.40 a pretty good run but the car isn't back together yet.
Yet is the key thing, a lot like the CV1, which I see as a awesome head for a turbo engine.
Turn a set of CV1's into tin foil piston topper's and see what happens in a well set up car.

Looking around on the Pontiac boards their are still very few 8 second Pontiac powered cars you could drive in a traffic jam, travel 500+ miles in a day and get around 15 mpg while doing it.

Hot Shot? well maybe if you consider its flex fuel. LOL
