Rabon,where do I go or who do I contact to purchase Technical Paper 970915.As forjbrady,you said "who cares".Who cares about what motor is in your GTO as long as it runs good. Is that your point.Well that is what this whole thing is about,a LOT of people care.No true fan of Pontiacs could ever say they do not care which motor is in their car.One of the biggest things about being a real Pontiac fan is taking your Pontiac motor and beating the other guy with it.And not joining them.Lets face it,Pontiac people are different,if you can not understand that I do not know what to say.The 1964 GTO started somthing big,and realy ticked Chevy off.Time will tell on the 04. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
The paper can be found on the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) website. Its under "Shop the SAE store" and "Papers". Do a search there to find it.
As to ticking off Chevy with the '64 GTO, I think Chevy (particularly Vette) lovers are plenty ticked off that the premier GM powerplant is once again being used in a Pontiac as it was in the WS6. Only now, GM has an improved version with the LS2 and guess what, Vette lovers don't even get to have one year as exclusive users. Pontiac gets the premier GM engine in their premier car and for thousands less than the Vette. Oh, I think Chevy guys are plenty ticked off that GM management has committed to making the new GTO a real musclecar performance value.
