    On the 'mildly' Cheap SS Monte Carlo chasing a 9.0___

    Glad you're getting it figured out. Any idea what changes you're going to make now? I'm assuming one at a time this go around? 😉

    T56 in an El Camino drives

    Did you have any clutch pedal issues? Like being able to bleed it out, or not having enough throw for it to disengage?

    Passenger side is in but.... the "new" doors had regulators so I was just going to reuse them. Went to put the window crank on and realized the splines are all stripped out. So looks like the glass is coming back out so I can swap the regulator from the old door. One step forward two steps back.

    Finally working on the car. I've been putting this off. I hate working inside the doors. Your arms always get cut up. Installed new window felt guides to help keep the window where it's supposed to be. Realized I didn't have rivets for the new A pillar window catch so that's as far as I can go...

    Alt for terminator x max

    Yes you definitely need the original wiring from the car for the alternator. I believe the connector comes with a wiring diagram on how to hook it up. It's been a few years since I did mine and don't remember off hand

    Huh. I'm running the RideTech and using Blazer spindles, have had no issues with 9.5" wheels and 275's on the front

    Had to do some projects around the house today so I didnt work on the car, but I did get the mail. Ordered something while renewing my vehicle registration. Seems fitting 🤣

    Haven't touched the car for a couple of days, but got the last parts back from paint. Both door mirrors and the trunk lid spoiler. My buddy was giving me a hard time about the spoiler, asking me why it was waving at me. It's fiberglass and had some waves in the mold that transferred to the...

    Gbody LS Swap Info

    I wouldn't say it's quite as bad as that doood But without prior planning, it easily can be. As far as using new sensors, why? If you read about the Terminator many specifically go to a junkyard and get OE sensors because the aftermarket ones are junk. Fuel system for $350. Yep, probably about...

    Gbody LS Swap Info

    $2500 for a used 6.0 is insane. I've bought both of 6.0's for $250. And please don't put a carb on a LS. You're defeating half of the gain of going to a late model engine.

    Gbody LS Swap Info

    No. With a sbc you could keep your cooling system, alternator, and a fuel system. That would be the easiest, and cheapest swap by far. You can use a factory ecm for the LS, but if you don't like wiring or aren't good at it, you're going to have some $ tied up in an aftermarket harness and...

    Gbody LS Swap Info

    Don't do ANYTHING at the moment. You have quite a bit of research, and then decisions to make first. There pros and cons to fuel injection, and to carb. What transmission will you be running? How will you be mounting the engine? Buying a Holley kit, ICT adapter plates, making your own, etc...

    Thank you! I can't take a bit of credit. That was all my buddies work. This is the best the car has looked since I've owned it. Which is 30 years this year.
