Once it has a few more miles on it I will do a cranking compression test..the old engine was 170..it won't surprise me if this one is 190 to 195.

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.
