Yes, purdy car! Even if it IS green...(:-
One thing, from an old tech. Don't allow anyone not familiar with the Pontiac V8 (it's NOT a Chevy 350) to convince you to make changes. For many years, we (Pontiac people) have had to hear: "I built a Pontiac once. It was a pig and blew up!" If one is to use the techniques that make a small block Chevy make power on the Pontiac, this IS the result. A pig that pops! But... If you build the Pontiac the way a Pontiac LIKES it, you'll really upset some apple carts! Afterall, GTO didn't earn a reputation for LOSING!
Get Jim Hand's "How to Build Max-performance Pontiac V8s", published by SA Designs. It's a CURRENT study of the old Injun, and available at most book stores. While not a bible by any means, it's got a lot of good explanations for Pontiac-specific performance stuff. Even though it's only 3 years old, some of it is already obsolete. Pontiacs are "back", and developement of the old Injun is at an all-time high.
Feel free to contact me directly, for a more personal approach to this. Information is absolutely free! (if I get my hands dirty, it begins to cost money...)
