He went out to a country road that had about a half mile straight in it and comes to a stop. Then he proceeded to rev up the engine and go through the gears til we hit a 110 mph. I had never felt anything like that before. When we got back to the house, my knees were shaking as I got out of the car. I know I got off topic a little but the post reminded me of this experience.

Six-Pack is not a term Pontiac ever used.They called it a Tri-Power and they did not offer that option after 1966. Firebirds never had Tri-Powers stock. The last year was 1966 on GTO's and full size cars.....

I sincerely hope you were able to get together with Jim DeFrank on his Firebird. Jim is a first class guy and his cars are all first class and fast. His Firebird is no exception.
