Detroit Speed subframe w/poncho engine
I want to keep my Pontiac engine in a '74 TA. Has anyone done this WITHOUT shifting the whole drive train towards the rear? Apparently there is no oil pan that can clear the rack & pinion - that I have been able to find. It's a stick, so the shifter would be out of place along with the usual shaker issue (non stock induction).

I have the Heidts system with rack and pinion and a Chevy 383 engine,not sure if that matters although I assume the oil pan is in the same location on both engines. My shifter seems to be in the correct position on mine along with the shaker and my air cleaner selections, although my shaker is mounted to the hood but seems to have plenty of clearance..

Ridetech now has a 2nd gen subframe that will mount a Pontiac engine. Anyone have experience with it yet?

I think their site lists headers required that only allow the use of D port heads... have to call to find out more on this from Ridetech. |

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.
