Might want to post in american Iron tech. As that motor was all pontiac and not GM.

This will help you some. Definitely need to get the block #s and head #'s to see if they are from the same engine. Otherwise you may have a combo that this scale will not work for. http://www.pontiacpower.net/engcode01.html
