Remember the 455 HO? (high output)
HO was used by Oldsmobile & Pontiac used HD (heavy duty)

Dear Bill "Power Monger" Gaino and Jack,


              Bill, I already have one on my Mk III engine.  The current
engine build is of more modest power production and requires a less potent
(and expensive!) fuel pump.  I also require one that permits AN fittings for
the AN plumbing.  The stock style Carter won't work with AN fittings, AFAIK,
and the the McRobb Perfomance unit will readily work with AN fittings and
will meet ALL fuel capacity needs, but at a price too high for this engine.


              Jack,  AFAIK,  "hipo" dates back some decades and is a
contraction of "High Power" or "High Powered".   I seem to recall that
it was more associated with Ford engines from the sixties and seventies,
than Chevy, but I am not sure.


                      Warmest regards,  Chuck Engles
