Just saw this and thought I would share. It’s pretty bad a** but doesn’t belong in my garage. https://www.motorious.com/articles/news/1984-hurst-olds-is-a-5-000-hp-daily/amp/

I wish you and your family the best outcome. I don’t know you personally but the only things in life that mean anything are family (whether they are blood or just someone important in a persons life) and one’s health. You are part of this forum and I see quite a bit of family here, which you...

I haven’t posted in a couple years. I still visit the site once or twice a month. I work entirely too much.

We will agree to disagree. Like I said, I have used This exact cam and it had power everywhere. Have you used one? I actually plan on getting another one of these cams because it worked so great. actually comp cams recommended this cam for low and mid power.

I’m not sure where you’re coming from with this, but I have ran this same cam with 3:73 gears in a truck and it had all kinds of power down low, mid, and up top in the rpm range. I had the tune where it needed to be and it performed very well.

Great looking Malibu. I’m glad this thread came about. My Monte Carlo with a T5 developed a vibration like this. I have been contemplating where to start. I may have the same issue. Subscribed!!

My buddy went to oreilly the other day to buy a 200.00 off the shelf Edelbrock aluminum intake. Nothing special, just the EPS intake. It is now 449.00. I haven’t looked around at summit or any others but that is ridiculous. Anyone else notice this price increase?

Might want to plug that vacuum port off on the front of the carb. Actually you need to hook your vacuum advance up to that port if it’s the one below the throttle blades.

The Edelbrock and Holley 4150 have the same base bolt pattern. It will bolt to your performer intake. Get a good timing light with the rpm function on it if you want to know your rpm’s. Good luck.

Mecum auto auction is in Indianapolis this weekend. Anyone making the trip? It was scheduled in May but thanks to COVID, it is this week. I was planning on going in May, but can’t this week.

Do you have tapered plugs or flat with the gasket? Maybe you have the wrong plugs for your heads.

Welcome. I have never seen a rhd monte. Never knew they made them. Nice car and good luck!

I agree with you guys. You get what you pay for. This isn’t my engine or I would pay extra for the good stuff. But I did see some of these eBay seller’s have brand name parts in their kits.

My buddy wants to rebuild the 350 sbc in his 1 ton dump truck. He was going to order a rebuild kit from summit or jegs and they have none. Everyone must be rebuilding their engines during coronavirus Or something. Anyway, has anyone bought a kit from eBay? What seller and was the quality...

V8 is my preference. The 327 in my Monte Carlo with long tubes and the Pypes exhaust is music to my ears!
