Last I heard from him he sold all his Pontiac stuff. Got out of it totally and opened a store selling health products.
Said there was more money in it and not enough in Pontiacs.
He did make his mark in the Pontiac world.
His parents came up here on a trip and my wife and I went out to dinner with them. Nice folks.
Seems Pontiac was concerned about the 4.21 stroke when it came to the blocks. I guess the 4 inch strokes too. But the 455 blocks went into the lo po years.

They left meat in the bores and didn`t go thin main webs on the 500813 castings. So, those big main 455 blocks might get a little more love now?
