When Pontiac finally decided they would release the OHC I think almost every published magazine of the day was contacted and/or did a write up, some good some not so good.

My collection is something I have been acquiring since I first became a cammer (1983)
I have been finding and adding to the list ever since.

Enjoy the slides.

Jeff,very impressive collection

[PMD1969]

Very cool! How can I slow it down?

[Jeff Hamlin]

Should be an options dropdown in the upper RH corner to allow speed change.
