I apologize, was never meant to be a bash on Arnie.
I thought the topic was about the fastest Pontiac Door car list.

Correct me again Mike, if I am wrong on this, but was not Arnie's later engines from GM based on a Chevrolet Block with Chevy Design heads with a Chevy Bore Spacing? (and a Pontiac Part Number and logo on the heads.)

Same deal that John Clegg ran for several years in his firebirds?

Why would I bash someone who used to buy Pontiac Parts from my Uncle's Dealership????
