13 Years and it is running again
It has been 13 years since I put an engine in my car. I finally decided to get it running and will enjoy it as I fix it up further. It is nice to have a supportive woman in my life that makes it easy to work on my stuff.

Glad to hear you are getting your car on the road. I once was detoured many years with a dirt bike accident and woman who ate all my pain pills. That set my Pontiac days back a few years. I had just pull the motor from GTO dropped it in to the firebird. Had a fresh motor ready to go into the GTO and needed to button up all the little things on the firebird motor install. Decided to take the next weekend and ride the old dirt bike. Well, fast forward many years later I just had that 455 opened up and changed heads and cam, it made 566HP/608TQ on the dyno. My new GF has been very supportive and enjoyed the dyno session. I now have both of these cars on the road, life is good.
Always helps to have a good woman..but one with a 64? magic...enjoy |

Good to see your back ready to have fun. I remember your posted et. Amazing what your car does in the last 1/8 mile! Wish my GTO did that. Also, I have a '68 Bird that my wife wants to race.
I took a five year break and haven't raced since 2013, hope to do that this year if we have decent weather. Feels good to drive the car again, right? |

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.
