Make sure that the spark plug boots are firmly seated into the heat shields on the rear plugs. They can vibrate loose if not firmly seated.

Yes, I would highly recommend it. The supercharger uses a speical oil called, "Supercharger Oil." You can get this oil from GM, however it does cost around $8-$12 a bottle. The oil should be check every 3000 miles and changed out once it smells bad or looks dirty.


What is the capacity of a gas tank for a 1997 Pontiac Bonneville SE?

Pontiac Bonnevilles are luxury/sport cars, the amount of Fuel would vary on the size of your engine. The best place to look would be in your owner's manual. However, normal size for a Bonneville is an V8(maximum engine size) or an I6(minimal engine size). For the V8, it should have a 20-25gal tank. For the V6, the typical size would be an 18-20gal tank. I would suggest to check the owner's manual first. I have a 1997 Pontiac Bonneville SE with a 3800 Series II (3.8L V6). Due to the fact that my gas gauge does not work, I have filled my take from empty more than once. It is almost exactly 18 gallons. I have a 1995 Bonneville SE. It has, I believe, an 18 gallon tank. The 1997 Bonneville was a 3.8L V6. Period. 205 HP, 240 HP w/ supercharger.

Will a Chevy 502 fit in a 66 Pontiac gto judge?

There is no such thing as a 1966 GTO Judge. This model was available in the model year 69, 70, and 71. Also the engine will fit in the engine bay, however all the mounts with need to be changed. Adapt mount kits are available from Summit Racing I believe. Also, depending on which transmission you intend on using, the engine will NOT bolt up to a Pontiac trans, however, again, adapt kits are available. Ask for a B-O-P adapter (Buick-Olds-Pontiac).

Where did the Pontiac come from?

The Pontiac brand was established in 1926 as a companion the General Motors Oakland. In 1933 it supplemented the Oakland brand. it was marketed as a performance division of GM until the end of 2010 when the brand was discontinued by GM.Since 1926, Pontiac has been recognized for producing high-performing vehicles that deliver on style and dependability. Named after the famous Native American Chief Pontiac, the brand started off in 1900 as the Pontiac Spring & Wagon Works. In 1908, the Oakland Motor Company and Pontiac Spring & Wagon Works merged to form the Oakland Motor Car Company. Soon after, GM purchased the Oakland Motor Car Company. Pontiac quickly took off, not only outselling Oakland, but establishing a standard with its 6-cylinder Cartercar. Throughout the 1920s Pontiac's line of 6-cylinder engines made an immediate impact, most notably with the Chief, which sold almost 77,000 units in its first year. Come the early '30s, Pontiac was assembling affordable sedans which featured inline 8-cylinder engines by borrowing heavily from GM stablemate Chevy. It was during these instances of innovation where Pontiac began to assert itself more and more as a company with a reputation for providing performance-oriented vehicles and strong Pontiac parts the everyday driver could get their hands on.Due to WWII, the bulk of the 1940s saw a period in which Pontiac models did not see many alterations. The company was holding steady with the Streamliner and Torpedo but it was the development of the Hydra-matic automatic transmission that gave Pontiac a needed boost in 1948. The '50s ushered in the Star Chief, one of the most important models in the brand's history. The V8 Star Chief would lead to the Bonneville. The Bonneville began as a limited edition Star Chief convertible featuring fuel-injection. Stylish, expensive, and powerful, the Bonneville was a top-of-the-line sedan that further bolstered Pontiac's image. The Catalina, Star Chief, Ventura (which was like a smaller Bonneville), Tempest, GTO, Grand Prix, Grand Am and Bonneville held up the Pontiac roster throughout the next decade. The Pontiac Firebird premiered in 1967, designating it as the automaker's first pony car. The oil-deprived '70s saw a decline in performance-hungry motorists. The Ventura II appeared in 1971 and a year later the Tempest was discontinued. The early '80s brought a boom to Pontiac, however, and would prove to be the most significant era in the company's history.Thanks to a complete redesign and the success of NBC's Knight Rider, the Firebird created a surge that would help set a tempo for the first part of the decade. The Fiero was introduced two years later in 1984. A two-seater coupe, the Pontiac Fiero provided drivers with a nice chunk of performance at a decent price tag and became an immediate hit. Together with the Grand Prix, Grand Am, and Trans Am still holding strong, Pontiac models were gaining consistent sales. The '90s saw anti-lock brakes, airbags, and GM's vaunted Quad-4 engine as standard Pontiac parts on all models. Revisions to the Firebird in 1993 and 1998, respectively, sparked interest. Pontiac also renewed the Grand Prix, making it comparable to compact stars such as the Accord. As the new millennium came into focus, Pontiac got to work. Thanks to the birth of the Pursuit and the Grand Am's transformation into the stylish G6 in 2004, Pontiac sustained relevancy. Other models such as the sporty G8, the Torrent - a versatile yet stylish SUV, and the legendary GTO all contribute to the ongoing legacy that Pontiac is known for throughout the country.For those who desire long-range durability but also crave reciprocal performance, Pontiac has been there, featuring models such as the flagship Bonneville, the ever-popular Trans Am, the sleek but economical Sunfire editions, all the way to the even more contemporary "G" line that has garnered so much attention. A stand out performer on the track as well as the street, Pontiac drivers will always enjoy the power and style that they have come to know and love. It's a relationship as boundless as the name itself.
