Default No Pontiac......But nice numbers!!!!!

Guy I go to church with purchased a ZL-1 Camaro rated at 580 hp. Takes it to the dyno and the car puts down 502rwhp. Sends the car to Redline Performance in Pompano Beach Florida for a set of heads, cam, long tube headers with 3" exhaust and upgraded the supercharger. Shows me the dyno results after the mods.....681rwhp!

Thank you I love my Challenger, but Pontiacs are my first love at the time we bought Mr. NEW-SKOL (the Challenger) Pontiac had nothing I could even consider. I looked at a Mustang California Special. White and black, but for the price the Challenger had it all over the Stang.

Yeah there's a place in Ohio I called for installing supercharger, long tube headers, transmission upgrade (Auto), new half shafts in the rear and they stated the car would put down 590-610rwhp. However, it comes at a cost of $14,750!! Can't spend this kind of money right now. The 67 convertible is going in for interior and glass work April the 29th. It's time to get this thing finished before I do something really stupid like sell it!!!

I know that feeling. You can only sweet talk so much before the ball and chain decides to not like it or anything with cars.lol

About Us

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.
