a 67 230 OHC-6 Sprint FB yes to around 7000 rpm, I would like to see a stock 250 OHC-6 rev above 6000 rpm. They used weaker valve springs as a built in rev limiter on all the factory 250 engines.

1968 Ram Air II Firebird with TH400. Was the 4.33:1 rear really necessary to get there?
The Firebirds received 3.90 gears.
(The GTO's got 4.33)

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.
