A few weeks ago I finally finished assembling and installing the 455 for my '71 LeMans. i just wanted to say thanks for all the help and advice everyone gave me. Beaver did a great job of machining the parts, and since this is the first complete motor I've built, I'm glad that it seems to run great and doesn't leak anything. Oh yeah, it has a lot of power

Hey Jim,
Glad your motor came together. Let me know if you are interested in hooking up with the local Pontiac clubs. Happy New Year .Les

Yeah, it's great. I just need somewhere to drive. I also can't wait for spring to see what it'll run. It'll be the first time I've run a car at the strip, and this is definitely a lot faster than the Prix. Here's a pic of just after I got it. The good side...Jim

I like driving bombers with a fast engine to blow the good looking cars away.
