More space isn't necessarily an advantage when the whole kit is hard-plumbed and welded.

Yup, if it doesn't say "Fits 92-99 Bonnevilles" I'm not buying it. I like assurance that it will fit. Plus I don't think I'm going that far anyway, I will be satisfied with a CAI, hi-flo cat and a Flowmaster (my muffler is ready to fall off, stupid Ohio keep putting too much salt on roads) oh and new rims, after the thaw of course.

MY bad, guess the memory is the first thing to go . The GP I read about was run 13'* on the 1/4 and had a bit more work than I rememberred.
Here'* the link though, was still a cool read http://highperformancepontiac.com/sh...0412pon_shoot/

Sorry for misleading and getting anyone'* hopes up

Nice article. A bit too excessive for me. All that modifications. I prefer a bolt-on deal for me. I'm not mechinical-inclined. I have noticed that many owners drive older Bonnevilles like 92-95 those years. I know there are some newer ones like me and Jack etc. I wonder why. I bet it was the fact that they were cheap and plenty available. Am I right? There are many nice Bonnies for sale here in Ohio if you guys are looking for one.

the 92-95'* are becoming more scarse every year......but thoes of ones who have them take care of them....the 96-99 are becoming harder to find with low miles these days

You know there was a black 03 SSEi right next to the 03 SLE(the SSEi was even cheaper than the SLE lower miles on the SLE) that I ended up buying, and the only reason why I got the SLE was because of the premium fuel and insurance costs. When you have 2 car payments every cent counts.
