1969 Royal Sport Camaro

1966 GTO Photo Gallery 2

The beginnings at the V8TV shop. The plan was to get the driveline in place and make this car a driver with the new engine, transmission, rear axle, and suspension system for the Hot Rod Power Tour. We'd attack the "holy" body later. In these shots, you can see the kind of bodywork the car needed. We've also pulled the original, numbers-matching 389 Pontiac engine and 2-speed Poweglide transmission. We kept those with the car in case it gets restored back to original someday.

Pontiac never used a Powerglide, it was a super turbine 300, a very strong 2 speed. Buick & Olds used it with a twin pitch torque converter!

I own a \\\'05 GTO with the LS2 / 6 speed that is similar to your engine. I cant tell you how happy you will be with this engine. It idles smoothly, gets 16/24 mpg. And it is fast! There is power everywhere. I use JBA Shorties into JBA highflow cats into a Magniflow system with an X pipe & it sounds great, no highway drone. I am looking for a Lemans myself to install a LS2 / 6 speed myself. Good Luck
