15 years old?

I did not think the Gutsram was made 15 years ago? Or is that the old Larry W. Tunnel ram?

Wow!

ps Why does everyone think the Chebby pump is better than the Pontiac pump???

Tom V- I never heard any Poncho guy say that the SBC pump is better; it's just that it lends itself to this sort of layout, like Rob (misterp266) showed. The Pontiac pump is a big, bulky thing. And the old 4-bolt pumps weren't a complete pump- just a rotor with no housing.

It's an old Larry Wenzler with a home made top. Thanks for the Wow Tom, from you that means a lot. The SBC pump is easier and cleaner, not better. Plus, at the time I built this car, there were no electric Pontiac pump setups. That motor was actually built in the early eighties with that intake and street driven back and forth to the track before ending up in my Tempest. You might also have noticed the billet upper radiator hose fitting that I put the radiator cap on because it is the high point of the cooling system. No one around here ran Pontiacs when I built this car and there wasn't the aftermarket parts that are available now either.
