The car is running great for limited testing, a new car, and smallish engine. When he puts a full quarter mile pass on it he will be in the top 5 of that fastest ever list I think.
Some racers even take 2......3 years and still can't get it right. I had a set of Super Chiefs that basically kept me out for 2 years.......MY fault! Live & learn!

I had a set of SC Heads for 2 years before I bought my KRE HP's, I just had problems...... Some were the heads but most was me!

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.
