Hell may as well uncork the headers and drive it..with all the damn noisey Harleys running around you ought to be able to get away with it also :)

[pearltomb1]

[DonBisu]

how much this car burns a gasoline per 100km?

[dk81535TA]

@DonBisu I don't know, maybe 8 miles to the gallon

[americanmuscle79]

the sun visors in my TA do that too when you punch it :P

[moe346john]

that is wicked dude

[VileMisanthropy]

0 people dislike the torque of a 535 in a T/A.

[peak199]

That's what it is all about!

[oilerman31]

what year is this?

[dk81535TA]

@oilerman31 1981

[barcrrt]

Sorry okumahowa. Best things in life would be 2 bad ass Pontiacs. I LOVE THIS CAR!

[Gaspipenicklioni]

Looks like it nearly bumped 8000 rpm!

[dk81535TA]

@Gaspipenicklioni No !! I don't take it that high, it was nearly 7,000 rpm though.

[MidnightinSavannah]

That is one mean T/A,gotta love that IAII motor.

[dk81535TA]

@MidnightinSavannah Thanks alot !! Yes, the IAll is awesome !!

[geiner66]

@MidnightinSavannah hell yeah you dont need no supercharger or turbo just get a big block high compression pistons and a good stron camshaft 4:10 gears or 4:56 ratio and you got a killer 10 or 11 second car torque is where its at not hp torqe win races

[MidnightinSavannah]

@geiner66 You don't alot of gear with a Pontiac,this car runs high 9's/Low 10's with a 3.50 gear.

[reprobacious]

Make sure you burn the film before the cop utters the words, "license and registration please". :-)

[Ratmouth66]

Pontiac power haha, is this the Butler Performance 535? Im planning to build an ultimate street rod 79' T/A, havent quite decided on a motor, my choices are between somethin like this with a 535 or so, a 455, or maybe one of those newer LSX454s for the power and mileage combo. What tranny would you recommend for something like this? Im pretty torn between a Tremec TKO or a TCI Streetfighter, id like the fun of a manual but with nearly 700hp id think that alone would be fun enough with an auto

[dk81535TA]

@Ratmouth66 Yes this is a Butler 535, I think you would be happy with any of the builds you mentioned. The LSX engines are very good blocks as well. I am still old school and like the Pontiac design engines and playing around with carburetors. If you have any kind of horsepower I would recommend the Turbo 400, like you said with all the things you can do with automatics it would be just a fun. Good luck with your project and let me know what you decide and when you finish !

[Ratmouth66]

@dk81535TA haha, niiice, yeah im pretty sure im going to go with something old school cause like you i preffer that as well, either a 535 like you have or get Butler to build me a nice 455, what 400 did you go with? TCI?

[dk81535TA]

@Ratmouth66 Sounds like a good plan ! I had a few turbo 400's and had one rebuilt from a local guy who is good with transmissions. It has a Turbo Action manual valve body that is forward pattern.

[ThrilloVanHouten]

I nearly jizzed my pants at 0:20-0:27

[chevellenut1968]

do me a favor put your foot down in that beautifull ta for me

[chevellenut1968]

my dad took an old 50 ford fire truck tanker-the tank converted to a flat bed car hauler for his 68 custom camaro well he put a custom 400 pontiac eng and a custom 400 trans he built all of it and for shits and gigles he took the truck on a run down the quarter and ran a 18.51 sec not bad for an 8900 lb truck after i herd that ive been in love with pontiac ever since

[dk81535TA]

@chevellenut1968 Cool story, thanks for sharing !! Pontiac's are awesome !

[surf403]

@morecowbell69 Not trying to be a prick man, but its not safe for one thing, and another, it takes away from all the hard work done on this awesome car. Thats what I was meaning.

[musiclovr2]

man its sweet

i watched the tach in the vid , it looked like it was around 7500, and could climb to 9!!!

is it broke in, when does it fall flat from the rpm's , do you know yet?

[dk81535TA]

I only shift at 6500 to 6800. I have shifted at 7200 but doesn't gain anything at the track.

[1Bandit455]

Yes--totally wicked.

[Bmackkc]

Bet the LS law loves you!!!

[73formula455]

push the pedal and hope it goes strait

[73formula455]

power for days!

[1badazz78]

[ztwntyn8]

nice run... just when I thought my RA3 combo was kinda tough. ha ha cool vid

[racecardriver467]

glad to see its Pontiac powered and not Chevy

[1Bandit455]

Nice.

[Carlsbiz]

Sounds tough !! What motor & mods ?

[dk81535TA]

IAll Pontiac 535 cid Edelebrock wide ports from Butler Performance, Victor Intake, Solid Roller

[1967PmdGto]

Son of a bitch!!! We know Butler can build'em, even monsters with 389 cubes but give'em 535 cubes and Holy Shit this is what happens!!!

I own a 455 (bored to 462) so I know what it's rpm characterisics are. But tell me.....

What rpm do you shift this 535 baby at??

What's she idling at??---by the audio you can't really tell, but it sounds like an extremely mild idle for how RADICAL/CRAZY the performance is. Of course big motors tone down radical cams at idle.

[dk81535TA]

I normally shift at 6800 rpm and it idles at around 1150 rpm.

[puncht37]

That bitch sounds tough. More traction would have been interesting.
