1-2-2005 Dear Chris, Sounds like your "work-in-progress" isn't all that bad to say the least. One thing seems certain, it's quite capable of showing taillights...
Hi everyone. I own a 1976 Trans Am Pontiac 50th Anniversary Edition. (that's Pontiac's 50th birthday and not the Trans Am's!). It has a 400 mated to an auto...
LOL, Have you guy's and gals noticed the dodge ram commercial with the hicks in the duster? its pretty good ... From: THE 70'S TRANS AM GROUP @ YAHOO.COM To:...
I'm posting this message to hopefully get some advice for a buddy. He has an 85 Camaro, 305, TPI. It needed new fuel injectors so decided to upgrade to some...
Personally, I'd go with stock and keep all performance parts fresh until I am ready to do the other upgrades. Let's face it, those 30lb injectors aren't...
1-7-2005 Dear Cope, Nope, haven't seen that commercial yet. Have had a stock Flord Focus try to race me last summer on one of our New Jersey highways. Um, he...
I have a 2nd generation T/A with a Pontiac 400 motor and a TH400 transmission. Both are freshly rebuilt with around 1200 miles on them. Recently a clicking /...
I would be willing to bet money your flexplate is cracked around the crank mounting bolt holes, I have seen this on 3 different pontiacs. and what you describe...
I was suspecting that. I'll check it out. Thanks for the reply. ... __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!...
1-12-2004 Dear DeGunn, Having cracked at least 3 'Flex Plates' on my 1960 Plymouth, I tend to agree with C Cope's diagnosis of the source of your noise. Ben...
I'm the guy who posted a message earlier this week about the noise coming from the torque converter area. I'd like to thank the many who replied. I thought I...
1-16-2005 Dear DeGunn, Won't claim to be a Transmission expert, but I'd wager a bet that ANY noise like the one you've described, can't be a good thing to...

Well, I bought a '70 GTO 400 block off of a local guy. Got a pair of not the greatest heads with it. Stock C.R. was 8.4:1 but the math says that 400 cid + 1...
gee I think you may be better off with a set of 6x heads, and they should still be pretty common. they came with 2.11 intake, 1.66 exhaust valves. they were...
The 350 that's in the car now has 6x heads, but I think chamber size on most of them was over 100ccs. The guy thought he had a set of redone RAIV heads that...
Pontiac high compression pistons get kinda pricey don't they? Unless you need pistons anyway the smaller chamber heads would be a better combo I believe as fas...
I'm getting ready to have my second generation Trans-Am painted and can't decide on a color. The car is by no means original, so a factory color is not a must....
I sprayed the nose of a mercedes benz amg something or another whatever the hell they call them, anyway it was a nice color silver with a nice amount of flake...
I'll be painting my '79 Formula a medium metallic blue. It's going to be very similar to one of the first gen colors, but the blue Formula decal set should...
