I tried to post a photo, link a photo ,drag drop a photo and failed as usual.

My odd-fire dauntless v-6 will stay in my ‘71 cj5 a d 67 jeepster thank you very much.

Connecticut, but same difference.

It will have rust now that it lives in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. It will.

I think everybody else has offered up a good bit of helpful commentary in response to your question, however I will offer one more bit. It’s actually a sad coda to the whole Pontiac pony saga, but in fact the last Pontiac engine to be used in an F-body was the rightfully loathed Iron Duke four cylinder—all 88…

Grit is used in the great white north because it’s too cold for salt - and when it gets cold enough, even magnesium chloride - to be effective.
