And in the same vein, people should drive a V-tech engine before they say it rules heavan and earth over a domestic V6 or V8.


Ah well..people won't be realistic and logical just because I want them to -_-
Well, i say these vehicles suck, because ive seen the problems they carry....Im not just saying they suck, to piss people off, and brag about what i like.

Well I'm catching up, I started an anime entertainment company here in South Africa, and I bought the one and only 66' Pontiac GTO in the country (sure I can't get parts, sure it needs alot of work).. but it's one hell of a car, the 6,5 Litre chevy Big block puts out about 370 Bhp... Once I convert it to fuel injecton... well then we'll see ;)

Right now it still runs well, I use it as advertising for Black Blade Anime (I park it outside our events and stick posters on the thing)... since it's a unique car in this country I get alot of stares :twisted:

For restoration parts, contact my old boss at this website:
http://www.goldeagleclassics.com

I used to work for this guy. He's a retailer for GM A-body parts. He can also get you plenty of restoration manuals for the '66 GTO. I know, because I used to own a '68 GTO with the 400 Pontiac big block. Yes, the 6.5L is actually a big-block Pontiac motor! Olds/Buick/Pontiac used the 400 and 455 big blocks, while Chevy used the classic 396, 402 (for the '70 Nova SS), 409, 427, and 454. Now, if that's not confusing enough, the Oldsmobile, Buick, and Pontiac 400's and 455's are slightly different (each make's engine has it's own unique bore and stroke combo, so an Olds motor puts out a different torque curve than a Pontiac motor).

What the hell? You want to go EFI? Jesus Christ, man, you have no taste! It's a '66 GTO! You need to use the classic tri-deuce setup (three 2 bbl carbs). Barry Grant makes a tri-power carb setup w/ intake for small-block Chevys, but I haven't heard of any versions of this product for big-block Pontiacs. But if you're gonna go EFI, I'd recommend the Edelbrock Pro-Flo kit, with the 1200 cfm throttle body.

Oh yeah, I would give several teeth and a couple organs to get my hands on one, but since it is kinda out of my financial range for the time being, its just a pipe dream :(
