Hey Guys,

The motor came in a 1968 GTO Convertible I bought late last year and this is what I now know about it (The seller didn't know much about it).

1975 Pontiac 400 Bored.030
Speed Pro Flat Top Forged Pistons
Stock Rods & Crank
Comp Cams Extreme Energy 284 Series Cam
JBP Prepared Edelbrock Heads
Torker 2 Intake
Holley 750 DP
Hooker Super Comp RP Headers

IMHO, The motor was a little too radical for a convertible and I planned on swapping it @ some point in time so I wasn't too upset. I guess everything happens for a reason, I was fortunate to have bought a very nice 455 from a PY member who was very helpful. Thanks Stags, I can't wait to get the motor in my car.

I was going to make a planter out of the block however I'm not sure what my wife's reaction would be if it were sitting in the front yard in "Fresh" Pontiac Blue Paint. Have a great Memorial Day Weekend and don't forget to fly the flag.
