tight budget = don't ---- with the car.

less than 33,000 hardtop GTO's were made that year, I couldn't find the breakdown as to how many got 455's.

 

amen, no reason to ruin that car with a hackjob setup.

 

stainless is the only way to go on that car.

 

If it has the original motor and trans I don't care what anyone says take that ---- out of there before turboing it. Find a cheaper alternative, something made recently like a crate motor from Summit or Jegs. If something goes wrong at least that way you can put the original stuff back in and have a vehicle worth as much as before you started. If you ---- up a stock drivetrain part it would be a shame. For instance... a 63 Vette split window is worth a ---- load with all original parts. Take out the engine and trans and it's suddenly worth $30k less. I urge you to replace that motor, keep it somewhere safe, and go from there.

 

I am pretty sure it is not original. He is slowly modding it putting in positrack and all that stuff. He has a different trans I do beleive as well, at least the gears aren't stock.

 

------ kid has more displacement then all of the hondas on this site combined, isnt' that enough :1

 

has a 4 speed tranny and 1st and 2nd are useless. we want the same for 3rd and 4th. mostly because it's ------ fun. The ****** tops out at ~90mph until he rebuilds his trans.

 

2.45 rear gears or 40" tall tires take your pick
