1979 Pontiac Trans Am 301 NA fresh build, first startup & cam break in.
Completely restored to stock, using all stock parts sources in the US.
Upper hose sucked flat from lack of coolant and possibly a bad (new STANT) rad cap not letting fluid in. Has been resolved, purring like a kitten now. Slight clacking noise is PCV and a bad alternator bearing
I Have a 301 TA 4 speed Non A/C car.
They are a nice engine even though people call them a boat anchor
