A Pontiac with a Chev Motor......!!!

Not sure if this is in the right section, but its a Chev and its a race car so here goes....let me know what you think.....

Some background

526Ci Allen Johnson Chev Motor ( around 2500 horsepower)
Supercharged 14:71 Hi helix Kebelco Roots blower
Estimated quarter mile: 5.80 @ 230MPH
Alcohol Injected......

My best friend drives this therefore keeping me busy during the summer months helping out at the track and in the shop....

What Chevy motor does it have???? It's almost gotta be an old school one in a Sunfire drag car, cause Chevy hasn't made an exclusive sport compact engine for a long, long time.

Its far from a sport compact motor...Its made by a builder named Allen johnson its a chev "STYLE" block with Chev "STYLE heads but he builds them and a buddy at a local machine shop does the internals....Its not a sunfire at all!! Its a big block wouldnt even fit in a SC car.... Its the only Chev "STYLE" motor in a heavily dominated HEMI field

I was thinking it would have to be. Just didn't know if it was a BBC or SBC. Either that or I've seen some drag cars with beefed up v6's from the old Cavaliers.

why don't you just call it a GM? pontiac and chevy are both under gm, so it doesn't make much of a difference.

It is not a SUNFIRE. It is a Firebird frame.

Like someone said... all motors since 1982 are considered Chevy(or GM) so it really is a mute issue that, that firebird has a "Chevy" motor in it.
