My 1965 GTO build
Hello, I'm new to PY. Attached herein are a few pics of my project. 1965 GTO. 428, TKO600, C5 front disks, 12 bolt with 3:42 gears, LT1 rear discs. The motor has ported 62 heads, Lunati Voodoo 703 camshaft, 9.5 CR, RA 2.5 exhaust manifolds, torker II, Holley 750 and Petronix flame thrower ignition. Ultimately; it will get a tri-power. But I don't want to set that on it until body work is complete. Anyway, I've enjoyed reading the many interesting posts in this forum and plan on chiming in from time to time. I'm far from an expert in this craft but have made enough mistakes in my time to be considered a 'seasoned' mechanic. The motor is running and sounds good.

Nice piece of work. I especially like the way the brakes are exposed and fill the wheel opening. Are you going to run that narrow a tire. I like it.

Chris65Lemans, thank you.
hurryinhoosier62, thank you aceaceca, thank you. These wheels are just rollers for moving the car around my shop. They are spares from a 2005 GTO. Ultimately, I'll be running a much wider wheel in 18 or 19" diameter. The 2005 GTO spares are 17's which just barely fit over the C5 discs. tempest1964, thank you. The downpipes are from Pypes and the rest of the system is Flowmaster. They both required fairly significant modification to get the fit I wanted. I chose the H-pipe system purely because I understand they accentuate a choppy idle more than an X-pipe. Tempest, thank you. |

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.
