      Later-A-body,

      I have been following your LS7 build and just love that body style. Did you sell the 455 shortblock?

      What specifically drove you to abandon the Pontiac power for the LS based motor?

      I did. It was the only way to afford the LS7 build. What motor is in the Formula?
      1973 Hurst Edition Pontiac Grand Am: 430 CI of ERL built LS7, Tremec Magnum T-56 6-speed, Global West / Speedtech Suspension, Custom rear coil-over suspension, QA1 double adjustable shocks, Wilwood 6/4 piston disc brakes, Modulare C1 19" concave wheels. Shooting for 625 HP and 20 MPG!

      The car currently sports the original 350 motor, looking to step up to a 400 based stroker.

      If you have not picked a Pontiac builder yet, I would contact Dave at SD Performance. I used them for most of my Pontiac stuff. They are a great shop, and really know the Pontiac stuff best, plus just real good guys to work with.
