1970 Pontiac Lemans Part 3, Dyno day is finally here!

So, we drove the car in in Episode 1. In Episode 2, you watched the battle to remove the engine and transportation of the Pontiac "Big Block" over to Performance Research in Westerville Ohio. Part of the beauty of our shop being just outside Dublin Ohio, Columbus and everything we could need is just a hop skip and a jump away! Now in Episode 3, it's time to get this thing set up and run on the Dyno!

Part of the reason for this entire process is to show an "Apples to Apples" comparison of an engine that was running pretty well but certainly not at its best, to a fully properly rebuilt engine utilizing the same major components. Real world performance numbers are hard to come by. Having scoured the YouTubes and Internets in general we've never seen this sort of thing done so, why not us at Lucore Automotive Services?

As you'll see in this video things it's never completely smooth sailing in these processes. We have shown you the pains and frustrations a mechanic goes through in the first part of this series and will continue to! So welcome to another stage of our journey!
