Most of us got into Pontiacs in the first place because of the performance cars from the early sixties through early 70's, and those cars had Pontiac engines in them. We might be able to appreciate a later Firebird or Trans Am with a 403, TPI 350, or an LS engine, but those cars aren't what got us here in the first place.
Honestly a tri-power 421 in an early GTO with a muncie is, IMHO, the coolest possible drivetrain for a Pontiac. I don't care if your LS makes 1000 HP and gets 40 mpg, I'd take the 421 any day. That's what makes these old cars cool for a lot of us.
