That picture is my worst nightmare.
I have a 74 std bore 455 engine I bought for 300 bucks. There was a kid who put it in a 3 gen Camero. It ran 12.20s and I told him to baby it through the season and build it with good rods and pistons next year. Well, it lasted 3-4 races. One day it got tight, hot. He shut it down just before it snapped a rod. One of the rods stacked the bearings. Not sure I can save the crank but I got a RPM intake, 4X heads, factory distributor with Pertreonix and a Lunati .540 cam and double roller chain out of the deal. Block is in sweet shape. I will make a 440 out of it. Need a 428 crank. |

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
