I mean, its fine if that is what you want to do. But we race Pontiacs because we want to not be like everyone else and to play the underdog. Pontiac heads get weight breaks in certain classes for a reason. Put their BBC head on and you loose that and do not get the fat bore to help either.
A Pontiac has the center ex BS, siamesed intake runners, crap oil system and we deal with it. Or, a RAV is a Pontiac but not really better unless blown.
Heads like Langers are still a Pontiac IMO. Still have the center ex BS to deal with and siamesed intake runners.
Yet you are a fan of Wilcox non tunnel port 5'??
PMD never made a 5 head that wasn't a tunnel port right?
