  • Of course I would not utilize a five wire HEI. In your case I would utilize a three wire HEI. This would be correct for 74 and up. I would remanufacture it for the camshaft and flow of the cylinder heads. You should be aware of the nice no nonsense...

  • Same type of distributor gear. One of the disadvantages is that they are hard to upgrade with a better coil. They are not correct for the engine. They are larger and take up more space. You will have to decide.

  • Now we move up to the intake manifold. This is a work of Pontiac Art. There is nothing to do. This was their work of Art. They could of spent some time on matching the ports to the heads. I must admit the port matching is very poor, but the intake...
