Are you talking about the motor or just the glass? I'm in the same boat as you, but here are some things that I've found: A diagram of the inner door https://chevrolet.7zap.com/en/monte+carlo/48544-1988/0-0-1595537602/0-1623575428-0-0/ Removing glass

the reason I don't think that's the case is because the pump is "straight". I'll try what you said though, as a matter of fact, I'll remove the pump and I'll know for sure.

Agreed. I like G-Bodies. I absolutely deposit time and money into these vehicles and I'm not looking for anything in return but the happiness it brings to me when I solve an issue or take a cruise. Of course, it does make me happy when an older woman sees my car and says, "that's a beautiful...

Problem: Power steering belt is touching the alternator belt. I have a 1986 Buick Regal w/ an Olds 350 (395558-2 late 70s variation with #8 heads). My belt routing is as follows: A/C, water pump, crank Alternator, water pump Power steering pump, water pump, crank This setup appears to be...

Always happy to hear someone got the chance to drive their car!!! Looks good.

It's interesting to me when people/companies use the word "upgrade," which means, to make something better. This isn't better, just different. That aside, it's not for me at this price, but I do like more options for Gbodies.

How did you secure it to the floor? Does your vehicle have the console mounts?

None of these videos covered it?

That's odd. When I order something that shows that it'll be delivered in 1 or 2 days, it's delivered in 1 or 2 days. I think I could compile enough data from 5 women that would total over 5,000 orders in a year from the date they ordered something to the delivery date would be over 90% in 48 hours.

In this fictional world of me swapping an EV, I'm talking about Tesla Plaid or Lucid Air Sapphire types of power on a Schwartz chassis. I'm open to any drivetrain in all types of G-Bodies. A 2JZ in a lowrider or electric motors in an 87 Aerocoupe. I want to see more G-Bodies on the street and...

I absolutely understand how this could go horribly wrong. I also understand, and have experienced, a technician at Goodyear forgetting to put oil in an engine and the engine blowing up on the freeway AND Goodyear having to fit the bill for GM to place a new engine in the vehicle at a dealership...

I'm with you, BUT, when it came to changing anything near that gosh awful heat/a/c box, it's horrible. Trying to do valve cover studs and header bolts was a pain.

I might be the slowest "car guy" in the world. It takes me 3x the amount of time it takes most G-Body guys to do simple task. I was outside for 3+ hours taking out this dash, a bunch of those minutes wasted looking for tools I could have sworn were somewhere that they weren't. Anyway, I got the...

Both. 350 doesn't mean anything to me. It could be a 200hp 350 or a 500hp 350 that you beat on all day. Radiator requirements will vary. The garden variety aluminum w/ shroud and electric fans will work for some folks.

I had no idea that Fuel Pressure Regulators could be $350!! Geesh.
