I recently removed the 327 from my Monte. It had brand new dual exhaust from the manifolds back put on a little over a year ago. The engine lacked power and oil practically poured out from it. After removing it to clean it up and put in new gaskets. I decided to put on some vortec heads I had...

I don't know what is keeping them on. The headlight swith was changed because I installed a Grand Prix dash in my Monte Carlo and it still won't let the lights turn off. What could this be? Door switches. I would think if they were bad the lights wouldn't come on. IDK It started the day I...

I need a pin out of the two Grand Prix cluster connectors and the one Monte Carlo connector. I want to repin my montes wiring harness for the GP dash. It looks like I'll need to lengthen some wires too.

Just picked up a 78 Monte with a 327. I'm not sure if I like the paint job that much. There's very little rust. It's a ttop car as well

When I bought my cutlass last summer the car would start but the starter was soundin really rough. I swapped in another I had layin around and all was good for a few weeks and then while cranking I could hear a loud bang over and over til I stopped cranking. Usually the battery was half dead...

I found this carb at my dads along with this hei with a 4 wire connector on it. can anyone tell me what they are from. I'm guessing the hei is from a ccc car maybe, but really stumped on the carb. The holley has the same bolt pattern as a Quadrajet and has the front side inlet like the...

I recently removed my q-jet to clean it up a little. I Didn't take it apart. I just cleaned it up and bolted it back on. Now when I start it up there is a good amount of gas shooting out of the float vent tubes. I just removed the air horn and the float didn't seem to be stuck down. What...

I have recently aquired an Olds 350 from a "75 H/O. It only had 160 hp from the factory according to a little research. It supposedly ran, but figured I'd look inside and see what I'm dealing with. So far I think I can just clean it and hone it. I wanna do all gaskets, rings and bearings...

Does anyone know of any cheap accessory brackets for an olds engine w/o ac? like the cheap ones mr. gasket makes for chevy engines.

Just wondering what products and methods you guys use to fix broken interior pieces. I've used 3m stuff to repair a tear in my old dodge neon's bumper and it worked great. I'm not sure if that works for interior stuff tho. I have cracks, tabs broken off, and holes in vinyl. I know I could try...

Is this how alternators get wired from the factory. Just wondering cuz my lights flicker and the other engine I have has the alternator wires ran differently. Plus it looked like someone mickey moused it. I talked to a guy at the parts store and he said somethin about runnin one of the wires...

I am trying to remove my a/c heater box to swap in a non a/c unit, but I cannot get the old one out. How do I get to the last two bolts at the bottom corner. I tried to remove the plastic wheelwell, and cannot get to the last bolt or two by the firewall. I really don't want to remove the...

If all goes well I'm gettin a 87 or 88 Cutlass with t-tops, center console/buckets, Chevy 4bolt 350/th350 w/ Hurst shift kit. The rear bumper has a rust hole, but comes with a replacement and also comes with a holley 650! I will post pics as soon as I get it. Which hopefully will be tonight...

My car is in pieces and was missing a lot of stuuf before I got it. Anyways, I am replacing all the fuel line, transmission lines, and brake lines from the prop valve back(rear axle too).

I have a Rochester quadrajet that is on my '79 chevy 350 and I looked up the numbers and it said it was a california standards carb. What does that Mean? I want to rebuild it and was wondering if it's worth it or not. Also what is the best rebuild kit to get? I saw somethin on a tv show...

I like to see other guy's build threads. Some are pretty amazing. Mine is kinda on the cheap, cuz I don't have a lot of money. I want to get the major issues taken care of and I can build off of it more later. I would eventually like to put an Olds engine in it and maybe a manual transmission. I...
