I am assuming your question was a poke at Gach. But if not, it only requires BB headers, BB frame mounts for the motor mounts and maybe adapting the radiator connections. It is really too simple.

Actually if it's a late 70 some of the frame mounts will accept the chevy stand without changing them. Easier yet huh?

I just don't know why people keep insisting on putting the "c" word into Pontiacs. Get a chevelle. Please. The pontiac engine has proven its worth time and again. You wouldn't take shortcuts on a paint job, interior or maybe your rollbar. Why on earth would someone take the easy way out on their drivetrain?? Just my opinion. If I find a 72 chevelle for you will you trade??

I say if it's your car and you want to spend the $$$, then do whatever you want to it. Hell, put one of those 528 Hemis in it. That would be kind of cool!

I did the Pontiac thing and it is just too much cash to do it right. I could buy 2 Merlin blocks for the price of 1 IA block, I know because I had an IA block. Nothing at all against Pontiacs, don't get me wrong it's just a better scenario for me with a BBC. Thanks...

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
