1980 bonneville dual exhuast

Sound from my 219k mile beat up 1980 Pont. bonneville with a 301 v8. True dual exhaust, and dynomax super turbo mufflers. Has a mild cam/rollertip rockers,edelbrock carb. The car now 3/09 has 219k miles. It now has a new timing chain and distributor, along with thrush turbo mufflers. The carb swap was tricky with blocking off a egr hole and cable hook up. Only the triangle edelbrock air cleanner would fit good with a spacer under it.

Car drove good this past winter. 220k now. my family wan'ts me to get rid of it. Even the upper A arm is getting a rott hole in it. I hope to post another video of it soon. Last fall, installed a new timing chain and distributor when I fixed the timing cover gasket anti freeze leak. Had to replace a tail pipe and a muffler. I installed 2 thrush turbo muffs.

That baby started right up!! Great car man!! Keep taking care of that ol girl. If you ever want to sell it, message me!! lol I would love to have that car!! You should restore it!! Do you have any plans for it?

[wissn2112]

It is too far gone to restore. It now has almost 219,000 miles. The back part of the frame is rotting, and the lower door jam on the driver side. Rear floors are starting to get some rott as well. I will be putting in a new distributor soon. The mechanical advance collar is gummed up and wont move. message me, I can try to send you some pictures.

the 301 block isnt the same as a 455. pontiac built the motor to be light weight so they took out a lot of the block. the cylinder walls are thin in the non-turbo blocks. i tried to build one but there is no performance parts. low horsepower :(,i guess thats prob why they last so long.

[wissn2112]

I know. The other blocks are different. The 301 is a oddball. My dad was able to put in a better cam and roller tip rockers and true dual exhaust in this one. The carb was giving cold start problems, so I put on a edelbrock carb. Had to block off the egr port below the carb and custom throtle hook up. It now has 217700 miles on it. The accel coil help some for wore out motors.
