The Pontiac has a bigger bore spacing than the LS even if you go to an after market 4.5" block.

I never said it could not. As I said before it will just take a lot more money than an LS. I believe if Tommy Youmans was running big tires and had the car suspense / chassis tuning and convertor right that his 505 could have run a 5.8x.

PS Let add that is if he could get his car down to 2550#.

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.
