Cool Thanks. Probably more in the 3 to 4 K range for me.

77birdman, your estimate for an aluminum head roller-cam stroker engine including installation and tuning is right on the money, within a few hundred $$ of what it would cost for sure.

About Us

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
