Brad, the 4.9L (300 cid) Ford engine had the highest durability/ lowest warranty/ lowest tech design for many years and people truly did run 300K with the engines. Package and
safety (crash) concerns killed that engine. (The long engine gets hit in the front, minimal crush zone, engine moves rearward, dash and interior take a beating). Sometimes it is better to move to a design that is safer for the driver/ passenger vs have a 300K+ engine design. We have massive crush zones on our new vehicles (lots of safety). Tom Vaught

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.
