Description
This vintage Pontiac carries a powerful drivetrain that's fittingly inspired by the GTO's performance-centric identity. A 400 cubic inch V8 holds court in the engine compartment, rebuilt approximately 3,200 miles ago and armed with a new Holley 750CFM 4-barrel carb, aluminum aftermarket heads and an Edelbrock Performer intake that join a performance cam to give the powerplant a nice, lope - not enough to wreak havoc with its vacuum, but enough to let you know something special sits inside. It's a sharp-looking engine, too - its bronze-colored air cleaner and black, Pontiac-branded valve covers provide a nice contrast to the silver of the block as it pairs with a Muncie 4-speed manual transmission that spins a 3.73 limited-slip 'Safe-Track' rear end to provide a great "hands on" driving experience. A new aluminum radiator and electric fan have been added to the mix to keep engine temperatures down in more demanding driving conditions, as well as power 4-wheel power disc brakes to provide a level of dependable, fade-resistant stopping power that would be out of reach in original configuration. Smooth power steering and new air shocks makes navigating this classic muscle car a breeze as it cruises on its set of 17-inch American Racing Torque Thrust polished wheels wrapped with 245/45/17 front and 275/40/17 rear Nitto performance tires.
