Default New guy building an LS-swapped 72 Lemans.

Hello all!
I’m Jeremy, and I’m in the process of building a 1972 Lemans sport that has essentially been sitting outside, on dirt, in Massachusetts for 10-15 years unmoved. Through a series of strange events, I traded my customized 88 Honda Hawk motorcycle for it last fall. I then grabbed a 2001 Silverado 2500 6.0L (LQ4) engine from a friend really cheap because he accidentally dropped a bolt down the intake and broke the piston.

I traded the non-matching numbers terrible-running Pontiac 350 for a Chevy TH400 that I’ve since bolted up to the LQ4.

In short, I’m slapping this car together as cheaply as I can with hopes that by mid summer 2018 I can pass the state inspection and have a reliable, fun Muscle car that doesn’t look nice enough to worry too much about.

Oh yeah - and I’m documenting every step of the entire thing on YouTube! So far, I have 20+ videos, and I typically have a new one every weekend.

Here is a link to my first video, I promise they get better!:

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.
