    8.5 in a delta 88?

    Yea I noticed it showed some with a 5" bolt circle and some with the 4.75" bolt circle. But if it's not a bolt in then I will just keep looking for a gbody 8.5

    How much hp can a 7.5 handle?

    Ya I'm not planning on running it hard, I just want a little more fun than my 307 is giving me lol. Like I said, the motor will probably only have a 2 barrel and single exhaust for a while, and the only mods I would make would be maybe a stock qjet and dual exhaust. Basically just looking for...

    How much hp can a 7.5 handle?

    Ok, so I'm planning on dropping in a 69-71 olds 350 in my 84 cutlass. The car originally came with a 231 and someone cobbled a roller 307 in there. I plan on basically freshening up a stock motor, probably with a 2 barrel. I have a 2.41 7.5 with G80 limited slip. Can the rear handle the extra...

    No more USBODY SOURCE W30 Style Hood

    Does anybody have any pics yet of the new vfn hood yet? I like the fact that it looks like the angle of the scoops matches the header panel better, the us body one doesn't.

    84 Cutlass antenna

    My 84 originally had a power antenna but the previous owner mangled it. I want to put a stationary one in but can't find many cutlass's around my area with any left. Will any other g body antenna work? The one on my 85 regal looks like the same mount but the one I grabbed from an el camino is...

    olds v8 exhaust manifold crack

    Cast iron welding is usually done with an oxy-acetylene torch, and takes a lot of skill not to make it worse. I've only seen a few cases of mig welding cast iron, and the surface prep was nearly impossible for this application.
