Pontiac Guys historically would like to have some of the items the Chebby and Ford guys have. A Belt Drive being one of them.

So years ago, a guy named Mark H started a company that sold products under the name BOP. They came out with several products for the Pontiac, Olds, and Buick guys, and most people know the story. Mark H being more of the Engineering type guy and Wade being more of the Sales type guy. Both were very good at what they did.

Eventually Mark H moved on to doing Boosted Engine stuff and sold the company to Wade.
So Wade has to run the company, care for his child, work on his castle, etc. Busy guy.
He really is building a castle. Seen the pictures at a PRI show some years ago.

So, in my opinion, unless you Tall Deck Guys do your homework, round up another 10 guys with the cash to have the parts made, and then work a deal with Wade on timing when he can make the parts, it isn't going to happen. That is reality.

Only other alternative is to throw cash at it and buy a set of parts previously made and installed on someone's engine. Why should they give up their extremely rare parts unless you give them a lot of cash. Few Pontiac Guys, except for Little Jack and the KRE Boys have a lot of cash just laying around, it seems, I don't. Langer has cash but he typically is using it to move his project forward each year.

So like I said, Good Luck with finding 10 guys with $1600+ dollars to get Wade to make the parts for you. I have been told the last Belt Drive Stuff for any Pontiac was completed in 2007, so 6 years ago. If I were building the parts I would not charge any less than that.

Giving you Good Info, so if you refuse to believe it, shame on you.
