• The site migration is complete! Hopefully everything transferred properly from the multiple decades old software we were using before. If you notice any issues please let me know, thanks! Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

Hello everyone. I look forward to sharing ideas and help with everyone. I have a 71 Grand Prix. I rebuilt and installed a "66" 421 with tripower set up and enjoy the sweet ride.
 


Welcome!

There's a few on here who have pre-1988 Grand Prix's, but they are the few. Most of this forum is dedicated to the w-body Grand Prixs, but everybody likes a Tripower. :D

And the obligatory demand for pics! You'll have to use a 3rd party site, like PhotoBucket , Flikr, or Imgur, because the forum is dumb and won't accept anything bigger than a thumbnail.
 
idrivejunk is about the only active member here with a older gp and two newer ones.

im a fan of anything 60's and 70's. love to see some pics.

Cool, man. She's real nice. Must be nice to have a somewhat cavernous engine bay to work in.... I like the good ole days, a big honking cast iron master cylinder(without all the anti-lock b.s.) , a belt driven fan with steel blades, power steering pump you can actually reach, top post battery that's not hemmed in by braces/fuse boxes/tanks, timing you can adjust without a laptop...lol...too much??
 


Welcome aboard! I swear I used an HEI with tri-power for a short time. Cool to see a 71 GP person land here, did you get my message in a bottle or what? Ha. My 69 GP has a 455, been in there many years. So is the 421 eating race gas or... what kinda setup ya got? Theres a 72 GP that I call a parts car in my yard also. Speak up if you have any oddball part needs just in case I have it. PYforums, performance years Pontiac, has a big active forum where a lot of real GP enthusiasts are located. I'm not there but check that site out. I want to see the rest of your car!
 
Thanks idrivejunk. The button on my shifter needs a clip so it could stay in. No luck finding one yet. My 71 sports a vinyl top so trapped water rusted through the body at the bottom of the rear window. parts cars are impossible to find.
 
you need to up load to photo bucket or to fb then copy the URL addy and paste it in the icon you clicks window that opens, hit the url tab un check the check mark so its a huge pic.
