Re: The original Grand am

I've always wanted to get one and restore it. They also came with 7.4L V8's that make the LS1 in that AED grand am look like it belonged on a go-kart. Plenty of aftermarket for it even now as it shares the same platform as the GTO and Buick GS.

yeah that 455 made a whopping 250 hp to move that huge boat. wee. :rolleyes:

yes you can build up any big block to be an absolute beast, but stock for stock that 1970's smog motor isn't crap compared to an LS1.

I'm just joking around dude. Don't take it too seriously. Any engine can be a beast with the right TLC. :)
