would i be cracked out to put a 400 into a running 62 lesabre?
good running buick nailhead 401. just stock grocery getter. crappy "one" speed auto. not a BOP and i don't have an automatic, but they aren't that much i guess. would need all new exhaust and fab mounts up. sure would smoke'm tho. just talking out my ass as usual.

Dont see a huge advantage with a pontiac engine over a good running nail head with both in near stock form.

THIS^^^ nothing wrong with a nailhead, you should think about changing the tranny and let the motor alone. |

boy if it were only that easy. yes the trans is the worst part ever. it is not BOP. only a nailhead specific trans will work w/o expensive adapter. only 65-66 trans are desireable too. i'll have fun finding one. i'm still just looking for stinkin wheels with a 3.5 inch center hole!

Early GM 1/2 tons had that center hole - but 6 lug...
It may be easier to get a full size 71-96 rim (or 5 lug truck) and open up the pilot hole: 3.06"Ø to 3.48"Ø in a lathe or mill. PS - or simply turn down the axle pilot and drum hub to 3.06"Ø. |

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.
