I WANT MORE I WANT MORE!!!!!
Hes im MIGPC I think...

I want to see him run!!

that still sounds like an L67 too...awesome

I bet he has a whole list of mods to make it RWD! i really wish our cars were RWD

How in the hell did he do that?

Lets see:
-Install a K-member or adapter that allows installation of engine with mounts in RWD fashion.
-Widen exhaust center-tunnel for a F-body tranny and driveshaft (since they use 3800s, direct bolt on).
-Strengthen rear frame for torque.
-Weld in an f-body rear suspension.
-Modified PCM for new tranny.

Yup, that seems about it. If you can fabricate and have an F-body donor car, I'm sure it wouldn't be a problem to duplicate. It's just that most people can't/don't and it would cost a fortune to have someone fabricate for you. These are also guesses on how the person actually designed the RWD system, but the process would be similar no matter how you went about it.

OK....R we ever gonna get a rear wheel drive system put back on the GP in the future..?

There is no future GP to my knowledge, it's been dubbed the G8, just as the GA replacement is the G6.

I believe the G8 will be RWD, possibly absorbing some of the GTO buyers when the GTO is tossed aside for awhile.

It's been rumored to be rwd, we'll see.

I think the GXP GP should have been RWD. What were they thinking. It is almost un-American to not have a RWD, high HP car.

The first FWD was by an American company wasn't it? Oldsmobile perhaps?

I have yet to see a GXP in my area, but I've seen three Impala SS with the 5.3.

i know old school there was the rivia but i think there was a caddy first, eldorado i think at least in the early 80's

Weren't caddies the first with fuel injection as well? I know they adopted it really early, in the '70s some time.

Old school...In 1966, Olds introduced the FWD Toronado, the '66 Riviera was RWD(I have one.. ) and in '67, Cadillac introduced the FWD Eldorado.
In 1979-85, all three were FWD. The 1976 Cadillac Seville had an Olds 350 with electronic fuel injection (They had two sensors on the intake manifold, and a choke heater that always went bad; a.k.a. the $300 tune up). The 1977 Fleetwood Brougham had a 425 with fuel injection, and four wheel disc brakes. At least, those are the earliest ones I remember working on. School's out, and my apologies for the off-topic post.

How weird. I was just thinking the other day how hard would it be to convert my GP to rear wheel drive....

I read recently that Pontiac is going to go back to their roots and stop production of all FWD cars and be a only RWD company. Kinda harsh, but AWESOME!

You got a link?
