I would like to start a new forum. Pontiac engines in other makes. I have done several.
My last two were chev trucks. I'm interested in other transplants. An old friend put a Pontiac in a Dodge truck.

About 1980 I put a warmed up 326 in an Olds Starfire. Everybody assumed it was a Monza with a sbc until I raised the hood!

A Pontiac motor in a Vette would probably piss a few people off, and be cool as hell in the process.

The Manta is pretty cool!
Glad to see the Fairmont rolling again Steve. Let me know when you're going this way or to Sequin.

There is a local 41 willy's Street Rod that boasts a blown Pontiac 455 in it.

My brother wants to put a Pontiac 400 in his 65 Chev 1/2T PU. Hooked onto that engine will be a TH400 out of a 65 Catalina! I've read all the other posts about putting Pontiac engine in a Chev, but the truck currently has an I-6 in it, will that couse problems when changing over the motor mount base plates? Also, which Pontiacs are the best for retrieving the base plates? Are some bolted to the frame while others are welded? I have no idea what kind of issues will occur when we try to fit that TH400 under it!

A guy in Scottsdale Az has an old Ford truck with a 389 in it. A dual quad 428 resides under the hood of a Mazda? truck as well. The one thing that really struck me though was seeing a 72 455HO in a 56 4wd Chevy truck up in Flagstaff (Smoked all 4 tires through the parking lot). I love it when a plan comes together.

I think GMC trucks got Pontiac motors from the factory in 1956. I can't remember where I read that, though.

Jon you probably seen it in HPP mag. I seen a chevy/gmc pu this summer at a local show/shine that had an old Pontiac in it. Guy said it was stock, I said sure, not believing a word, only to come home and read an article on Ponchos in factory 1950's Chevy/GMC trucks

My 17 year old just put my 8000 mile 350 Pontiac into his 86 chevy caprice wagaon all by himself.He helped me swap the 350 for the 462 so I gave him the motor. I have to say it does sound kinda weird hearing the Pontiac lope out of a chevy lol.

1930 Ford roadster with Pontiac running gear, not sure which engine yet (a few to choose), a '57 housing with custom 31 spline axles and a 4.10 spooled centre.
