540 IA2 Build
I figured I would share my recent build as the race section is a bit boring.
540 IA2 Crower 4.5 billet crank MGP Aluminum rods Gibtec pistons Jesel tiebar lifters .904 Moroso drysump pan Moroso 5 stage pump BOP belt drive Book carb John Langer's old Tiger heads, intake, and cam Jesel rockers 1.9 both intake and exhaust 1,119 hp @ 7,800 rpm 815 tq @ 6,900 rpm Thanks to John Langer for selling me some awesome parts and answering my questions. Thanks to Frank and Bob at All Pontiac for their help. Thanks to Wade at BOP for his great parts also. And thanks to my friend Chris Sikorski for his help with my racing endeavors. I would post the Dyno sheet if I knew how from my phone. |

It has 14.9 :1 compression.
I know John made more power with this top end, but he was also a little bigger. It is going in my 68 Firebird. I will see if I can send it to your email after work today Johnta1. Thanks for all the nice compliments. It's been a long road with a bunch of issues, but my guy got it done. Last edited by hp 400 dave; 04-15-2019 at 08:09 AM. Reason: Mistake |

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.
