Thanks everybody! I'm really looking forward to driving my first Pontiac since the '64 Parisienne I had in the 70s. 283 Powerglide, 4 door hardtop, loved that car. I had a few Chevys, one Dodge, NEVER a Ford. When my kids came along I turned to Toyotas for the economy and reliability aspects, and actually hot-rodded my last one, an '83 Celica with a 22RTE turbo motor swap that ran a 13.94 last year.
The plan for the GP is to get back to the American muscle, with the modern engine, beefed up drivetrain, and eventually using what I learned from the Celi to turbocharge this one too.

I'll have the advantage of installing the headers before the engine, and adjusting the mounts to make it all fit. They still might need some persuasion though, they're LS1 F-body headers. Guys on G-body forums have used them before.
