Had both Montes out and ready for a picture. 1978 and 2002.

Did the installation today of the 383 into my 1978 Monte Carlo. Dynoed at 400hp at 5500 rpm and still climbing. This is just a street car, so no need to get any crazier on horse power. I still need some minor adjustments and bolt up the 50 series Flowmasters. Eagle Steel Crank Eagle SIR...

Just purchased an Auto Meter Tach for my 78 Monte. I thought I had a good spot for the mounting location? I was going to mount it right past the key switch on the steering column, but that moves with the PNRD indicator. I didn't realize that moved with the floor shifter. Duh.... Looking...

My obsession with the 78 Monte Carlo started as my first new car I purchased. After being married, we sold it shortly afterwords, when gas hit $1.00 per gallon. The replacement was a 82 Ford Escort.... About 5 years ago I purchased a 78 Monte Carlo from South Carolina. Here are a few photos...

Hey guys, the snow is melting here in Minnesota, and I brought the 78 Monte project out of winter storage. Last fall I posted a few questions on rim selection and such. I've narrowed my rim choice down to the Boyd Coddington Sultans in 15x6" fronts and 15x8" rears. What should I be looking at...

I'm running a Performer EPS Manifold and Edlebrock 600 CFM carb. What have you used for a bracket for throttle and kickdown cables? I bought a two piece adjustable bracket from Summit, but even slightly modified I can not get it at the right angles for clean straight alignment. It is a SBC...
