That I have no idea. I would assume it was made on a cnc machine, would have to ask Bill if he was the one to make it.

Yes, that's the type of girdle I'd like! Would prefer it in iron or steel, the sides could be scalloped out a bit to decrease the weight.
Maybe a casting would be more cost effective, perhaps in China? Then machined in the States.

Not impossible on a manual mill, but extremely more efficient CNC. And I agree with Mike Garblik on maintenance issues. In fact... doing that same design with bolt-in main caps (all five) would not be terrible to do on a manual mill.

You know George, I sure do not remember me posting "I am one of the big boys". I do not think that. How come I can not highlight it, click on it and bring it up ?
I mean, If I did post that I will apologize to the PY Race section. No problem.
I think you took something out of context at the least. And at the most you edited a old post. In other words made it up and attributed it to me.

What is it George ?
What you need to worry about is keeping proper air pressure in you 1200HP beast. Who has a car like that and does not know what their tire pressure is every run. And don't you check your timing ? Its a wonder you have not exploded it or put it in the wall.
With all the crap I have given you about it, and others you would think you wound be on top of it. "who needs to degree their cam" LOL.

You typed it, I pasted it!
1,200 hp, huh........I think I have more then that! Im shooting for 4.9's in the 1/8 next weekend!
Ya I know I do everything wrong (tire pressure, my blower belt too tight)...........DAMN when will I learn and I still run quicker then you. LOL!
You know I NEVER said who needs a Degree wheel.......I said a SMALL, CHEAP degree wheel is useless and is a waste of time! I have degreed my last 3 camshafts in FWIW. First off you don't know anything (hence the 10.90 time slips) so I don't listen to you....what did you say?

Even sitting in the CHEAP seats it is easy to see you are just post junk to up your post count.

For how many years have all we have heard is you are going to? Yet you never do. Look at the ECM. How many times in the past couple of years have they posted up new PB's?

If how fast you run matters as to what someone can say here, then you need to STFU and listen to the ECM.

Waiting breathlessly to see what dribble you post up to reply.

Stan

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.
