Once you drive a Pontiac with a Pontiac engine you never forget daz sorry other TA owner!!! Lol
I drive a Pontiac with a Chevy engine, does that count?
Although my 3rd Gen firebird was a 2.8L, which seems to be the same fitted to Camaros of the time, so that is probably Chevy or Buick, so I've never driven a Pontiac with a Pontiac engine.

Pontiac engines (except the 301 turbo) are long stroke and very torquey! Lots of fun factor!!

No, it was Pontiac, and unfortunately shares nothing in common with the 350-455 engines.
