Thought of another Pontiac record holder. Scott Underhill's '71 455HO powered T-37 held the E/SA nat record, for a while. And I think his engine just got a 5hp reduction.

I think Stephanie Pike now drives the former Larry Maxwell red 455 Lemans.
While lookin thru my pics, I also found one labeled Larry Maxwell Wagon. It's one of those that has the GTO type front. This one reminds me of the Jim Hand wagon. For any who don't know, Jim was a big name in Pontiac circles, having written a book & lots of articles about Pontiac performance. Jim's book is out of print & now has a high price tag. https://www.amazon.com/How-Build-Per.../dp/1884089674 Last edited by oldskool; 12-21-2019 at 04:30 PM. |

Don't think I've mentioned this. Adam Strang got a good piston approved & built a 350HO for his '68 Bird. I think he made at least 2 races with it.
Anyhow, he posted that he ran a 10.837 @ 122.80 mph ! As far as I know that's by far the quickest pass ever made by a Pontiac 350 powered Stocker. I suppose the next quickest might be low 11's, by one of the '74 GTO's, maybe, Brad Koivisto. Last edited by oldskool; 12-21-2019 at 05:34 PM. |

Hey, 10.80, with a Stock legal Pontiac 350 ain't too shabby !
![]() This is just an opinion question. Would the '69 #48 350HO heads, with their larger valves, make much difference in power output ? ![]() |

Hard to say with the bigger valve being closer to the side of the bore.
