How-To Rebuild Pontiac V-8s is a step-by-step text and photo guide on how to rebuild a Pontiac V8 engine. The author Rocky Rotella takes you through the complete and detailed rebuild of the popular Pontiac 400 V8 motor, with mild performance modifications that increase the engine's horsepower to nearly 400 ponies.
But if your "Poncho" uses a different V8, the information contained in this book will still apply to other engines, such as the 347 or the 455. As Pontiac enthusiasts and builders know, interchangeability is a word that accurately describes V8 engines built by Pontiac, as components regardless of year of manufacture will fit to just about any other year block. That includes heads, cams, intake manifolds and more.
