    Now that this GTO is back to shredding tires, how would you continue this build?

    • @bradheppner811
      @bradheppner811 Год назад +11

      First, I’d get my money back from whoever sent you that “PHS” report. Then, I’d source a 4 bolt 400 block and have DCI Motorsports build it to their Ram Air V specs and add a Tremec 5 speed.

  • @bradheppner811
    @bradheppner811 Год назад +47

    Seeing the backfire burns on the hood, I am guessing it was a 389 Tri-power car from the factory. No 400 cu until 1967 and Pontiac didn’t have the 455 until 1970.

    • @toddatkin5288

      What about the report that came with the car??? 455/4 speed?

    • @bradheppner811
      @bradheppner811 Год назад

      Richard is full of shit or just made an honest mistake. All GTOs in 1966 had a 398. Just listen to Ronnie and the Daytonas “Little GTO”.

    • @toddatkin5288
      @toddatkin5288 Год назад +3

      You might be full of it too, Olds 455 released in 1968.... Google it.

    • @bradheppner811
      @bradheppner811 Год назад +4

      It’s not an Olds. Buick released their 455 before Pontiac as well. If you are so good at Googling you would know.

    The sound of that 454 big block brings back memories of my dads 67 Chevelle SS with a 427. There's nothing like a rumble of a Chevy big block. That's going to be a slick ride for somebody! I would put in a Pontiac 400 and put the 4 speed back in it and go for broke, lol!

    Shame for me in every way being that I am Disabled, live in the UK, got no money to even consider anything like this, but is sure lucky for someone to get the chance to build her up to perfection.

  • @georgepaust8416
    @georgepaust8416 Год назад +1

    Your oil drip is notorious on big block Chevys that have been sitting for a while. The two-piece rear main seal hardens from sitting. Run it for a while and it should cease leaking. You probably blew out the power valve on your double pump carburetor. If it backfires, they are notorious for doing this. I'd go through and rebuild the whole thing. They're pretty simple.
