Bad day for a 455

been done before and is kinda easy with the right aftermarket carb... just takes a lil drilling and some trial and error to find the right jet's that will work well in and out of boost...

You would have to be an absolute dicktard to put a chebby shitbox motor into a PontiacI never specified chevy or BPO

It will most likely be a Pontiac engine, but in reality, its the same company, just different divisions. Just depends on the numbers I want to run. Atleast I'm not putting a Fix Or Repair Daily engine in it! I'm just screwing with Ruthless351 :icon_thumright:

I could build a 307 for ya and it could have more power than a stock 455, and weigh quite a bit less.:D I could also tell you the secret to stroking them but then I'd have to :machinegun: you. Or just charge you a whole bunch.:icon_king:It's not a secret bud.

No secret to put in a 350 crank, try a 400. Also not top secret but very few will believe it'll work until they see it. They have really dropped off in popularity since Wissota dropped 360 sprints, now everyone runs 410's. This combo is is a lot of machining and other labors, but worth it. I'm done hijacking your thread now Ruthless ( and Bandit, sort of).

Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car
Oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car.
Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall
Torque is how far you take the wall with you -

Who said it has to be carb'ed?never said it had to be, but going EFI just adds to the degree of difficulty if one does not know what they are doing.
Although, I forget who it was, but somebody just came out with a Ford based EFI conversion for the Pontiac motors...

YOU DONT NEED A LARGER CARB!!! Lets just concentrate on gettting an engine back in that thing.

Wow, settle down sunshine, obviously the engine comes first, but doesn't mean we can't talk other parts.:stirpot:
