1978 Pontiac LeMans review from North America
"Words can't express this car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Old motor suddenly lost oil pressure when out for a drive and the old turbo 250 was a pile of junk.
General comments?
I wouldn't give this car up for the world,
the car has requierd some tlc, but its almost 30 years old the old motor burned oil and the tranny kicked, but not into gear.
We dropped a L98 out of a vett in to the lemans with a turbo 350 trans and put a dual 2.5 in. exhaust on the car with headders and man dose it sound like a car I have also put in a hurst pro matic 2 shifter the floor pannles need some attention next and in the coming month the car will be painted phathom blue. over all this has been a sweet ride aside from the problems with the original motor and trans, but my 350 gets better gas mileage than the 305 figuers.
