Nice! It looks great.

Did you double check that Pontiac guys work? I hear they mess things up quiet a bit.

67 GTX

haha

we watched him very carefully

67 GTX

oh, and btw, that last pic, with the engine being suspended, it is only being held onto the chain by two head bolts

67 GTX

can anyone identify what company this piston is from?

Commando

They look to be TRW, speed pro, or sealed power, whichever you prefer to call them.

67 GTX

i was wondering, because i didnt know many companies that used arrows on the pistons

Commando

The arrow was a hint for me, but the part number gave it away.

67 GTX

so their speed pro pistons?

Commando

The three companies I listed are all the same, the names can be used interchangeably.

I used Sealed Power, but their logos are also the same, you'll see speed pro and sealed power are lighting bolts.

67 GTX

ok
thank you

I only used two head bolts while putting an engine in..

i just find it so wierd when you got near 700 or so pounds being held up by only two bolts

67 GTX

from a picture near the top of the page, can anyone tell me what kind of rods i have?

Commando

Your rods appear to be stock, but hard to tell from the distance of the picture.

67 GTX

haha
no, i think joe dirt had a hemi roadrunner

koondawg_74 roadrunner

My dad used to a 67 belvedere gtx (along with some satellites) and I was at my grandparents house looking through an old shed and found some parts for it. I found a grill, tailight panel, all seats, windshield, chrome pieces, steering wheel, mirrors,etc. The grill, tailight panel, seats, and windshield are in pretty good shape and I was wandering if you know if these would be worth anything. I might end up needing more money to fix up my 74 roadrunner and I'm only 14. I'm sorry I know this is off of the topic but I dont know where to put it because I'm new to this forum. Thanks!
