Hi Folks, Here's a link to a page that shows a 3/4 front-view sketch of what an MCSS might look like with modestly stretched fenders and quarter panels: http://www.montecarloss.com/community/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=337715&page=4

How did you come up with a 415 stroker? 383 and 434 are the only sb stokers you can get with a stock 350 or 400 block and a large stroke crank. Give Pro torque a call for the convertor.

Yes that is just the small cap HEI. That's what 87-up cars have. There is a 4 wire and a 3 wire connector on the ignition module (under the distributor cap), on g-bodies you unplug the 4 wire connector to but the computer in base timing mode. Stock

Need to replace blown ball joint boots. Wondering if there's replacement out there that actually fit correctly? On the other projec Monte, tried using Energy Suspension polyurethane boots and they kept sliding off the base of the bj. Maybe, I orde

I was going to ask earlier, but is/was there more than just the trans in this sale. Did the bell housing, clutch fork/boot at least come with it? If not, then it definately isn't worth $300. FWIW, I think that as long as a person would drive either/o

.. This one is about perfect for a stock 305" and inexpensive... ignore what it says on that page about RPM, that's for slug engines, in a 305" SS engine your HP will peak around 5500 RPM, shift at 5800-6000... add some $20 'Z28' valve spri

.. It depends on the engine build/efficiency... a poorly tuned 7.6:1 350" may get 10 MPG... a 383" built with 2 eyebrow flattop pistons, FastBurnHeads, 11:1, good quench, and mild cam may get 25-30MPG... the details of the build are far mor

Good call - that's too much for a NWC and personally I'd only go with a WC model when it comes to a T5 as even they aren't very strong.
