Cool '55 Pontiac Hot Rod on LA Craigslist
I wonder when the '57 Bonnie engine was swapped in... back in the day it probably would have surprised a few people.

I think all (630?) 57 Bonnevilles were fuel injected. The bored-out figure might be a typo.....i.e. 0.040 inches instead? From what I've read in the past the tripower performance was better than the fuel injection...at least back in 1957.

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.
