I've watched that probably six times over the last three years and I still think they should have gone with an LS engine. The BS about the frame being bent is just nonsense. They knew they were going to shorten the axle and modify the frame to accommodate the big tires, so all that talk about a bent frame was nonsense. Although I love GTOs as much or more than anyone else here, I would not build one for me that way. Sure, if they were restoring the car to stock, then yes, use the Pontiac 400. But since the car is far from original in EVERY other sense, the LS engine would have been a MUCH better choice. JMO
