I have absolutely nothing constructive to add to this thread.
BUT, as just a casual observer, it seems that more & more often, when discussing Pontiac engines, somebody always eventually says how much more power some other brand will make, & how much cheaper a Chevy based engine can be built.
My opinion is WHO CARES ?
If somebody wants a Chevy engine, buy or build one. If someone wants a 10,000hp nitro engine & has the money to build one, do it.
But if someone just wants to badmouth the Pontiac engine & post how inferior it is, why post that on a Pontiac forum ?
I suspect there are FAR more Chevy forums where the greatness of Chevy engines can be discussed.
Opinions differ.
PS: Not meant as a put down to any particular member here. LOTS of members here have been guilty of it. I've also mentioned the fact that a small block Chevy engine can be built much cheaper than a Pontiac. But, I always recommend a Pontiac, for those who can afford it, NOT because it's the greatest engine design ever. But mostly because I'm a Pontiac freek, & I like to see a Pontiac engine in a Pontiac body, especially if that body came from the factory with a Pontiac engine. We're all entitled to our opinion.
