I’ve seen several OHC six cylinders but I’ve never laid eyes on a Pontiac four cylinder.

I wonder what they mean by "INDY"? It would be fun to have one to fool around with. Are motor mounts the same as a V8? It would be fun to put that in a newer A body and drive it around.

What would be fun about it?
An underpowered motor that vibrates like hell - Tom may verify, but I do not think you could give that motor away other than the accessories. |

The fun would be to go to a car show or cruise and pop the hood. I bet a lot of folks would do a double take and check it out.

There’s a member here (charlie66) that has one in a ‘64 Le Mans if I’m not mistaken.
A turbocharged beast. Fun is where you find it.  Sure they’re an oddball that’s not popular, but there are people out there that like them.

This boat anchor has been listed for months with no takers, so I'm not sure what the hurry would be.

They only sound half as good as a V8.

A concrete block is much more effective as a boat anchor. Cheaper too.

You need vision!
Glad Mickey didn’t think like you guys!
Here’s his 1/2 of a four cylinder on a run stand.

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.
