4 speed trans swap?
(Preview)
Hi guys, I just purchased a 60 Biscayne(I know its not a Pontiac) But the Canadian Pontiacs are the same. Anyways, I'm thinking of swapping a 4 speed or 5 speed trans into it. Does anyone know of an easy swap? Or a bolt up to the original bellhousing? Thanks, ken

does anybody have a four barrel intake for sale that would fit on my 59' 283? Preferably one with the oil filler tube and in the southwestern ontario region so i could easily pick it up instead of shipping a heavy parcel.

non hardened valve seats & non leaded fuel

Looking for opinions ,.... Does the use of today's non leaded fuel pose a "realistic" problem for older engines with non hardened valve seats? We all know that today's gas has no lead lubricant for the older heads. I'm considering a rebuilt on a an older small block. I'm not sure if it's w...

I never liked location of the mufflers on my '64. They protrude slightly when mounted in the factory locati...

But we just got the original GM info on our car and the engine is a 283...and it has camel - hump heads. One of you (thanks) showed an illustration of a shop manual that said that in '64 at least the Pontiac 2...

Fuel Pump issues...
(Preview)
I am trying to diagnose a fuel issue on my 60' Strato Chief with the I6. Basically the car died while driving it. Started sputtering and then stalled and wouldnt start again.
