"I was thinking of a comment from Cliff about one of his customers that ran a RPM intake on a considerably more powerful engine."

It was the RPM intake, and they lost the engine twice on the same rod bearing. It's a high HP set-up, runs high 9's over 135mph, engine makes 735hp. The RPM intake was heavily ported. It was removed, and replaced by a ported Tomahawk with a 2" spacer and no more issues with rods bearings.....Cliff

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world.

Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
