brethenry_08 said:well i do appreciate every ones opinion on this subjuect and am now convinced to get a 350 old or a 403 nut out of curiosity what was the 403 olds most common in?
Pontiac Trans Ams, actually. The 77-79 Trans Am used the Olds 403 in front of the automatics and the Pontiac 400 in front of the manual trans. If the hood scoop says "T/A 6.6", it's a Pontiac motor. If it says "6.6 LITER", it's an Olds 403.
The 403 was built from 77-79. Besides the T/As, they were used in full size Buick, Olds, and Pontiac cars and in the 77 Cutlass as an option.
