Because engines with true zero deck run more efficiently and make better power with less chance of detonation for any given compression ratio.

That'll be a pretty mild cam. Similar to factory 068 @ .050". Strong lower-midrange power, done by 5000-5200 RPM.

why are Comp's cams almost all on 110 LSAs with 106 ICLs? Doesn't matter which brand engine they're for. I'm sure what's good for a Ford 351 is just as good for a Pontiac 455, right? Unless, of...

Welcome aboard, and dang, what a score! The '67 GP is my all time favorite full-size Pontiac. Great to hear that it runs good.

That's a pretty mild cam, you don't need much converter, and you won't want a lot of converter if you stick with taller gears. I'd think something like a Hughes GM25 would be just the ticket for...

Yes, the '67 - '72 intakes are all basically the same from a flow perspective.

From what I've seen the factory aluminum D-port intakes do NOT flow any better than the iron intakes. I don't think...

My main concern is with your stock bottom end. Pontiac never intended it to get wound past around 5600 RPM.

The 60916 should do exactly what you want. The larger grinds will carry out to 5800 or...

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.
