I need a hood for a 78-80 grand prix. I would order one from vfn but i need it for pinks all out in ennis march 20th and 21st and it takes atleast 4 weeks to make the hood. i am in oklahoma city, oklahoma. could drive a lil bit for a good deal. looks and color doesnt matter. just do not want to...

i have 29x10 hoosier stickies on mine stock!!! i have a 15x8, 4.5" backspacing, and half inch worth of spacers. all i did was roll the lip good so it didnt cut the tires if it does rub. it just rubs around corners. off the line, it doesnt rub at all (the body actually lifts up off the rearend...

yeah, im 23, and love the old cars!!!! well, anything with speed, lol. my first car was a 77 gp. i got it to run 14.0's at 106. i bought my current project, 79 gp to put the 77 motor in it (never happened, has a 455poncho and about everything else you can buy under it now). but, i drove by my...

for the front, i would try the qa-1 r series coil overs!!!!!!!! adj ride height and turn of the knob shock adj. extremely easy to install and beats tearing the front end down to cut springs. i also have coil overs in the rear of my car.

i cant ever get a hold of these guys. i have tried to call them and send e-mails and got nothing back

awesome deal. i thought $100 for my front fenders, bumper, header panel, and aluminum radiator support was good.........

well, that is very true. hahaha there have been a couple questions on here about this sorta swap though

well, i have a 9", and i made my own control arm brackets for the rear-end. they are just taller than stock. but yes, i can get a pic for ya. my car, havnt got a chance to run it yet. i beat a 10.80 car on the street n/a. but that was with a slippin trans, and a converter way too lose. so, i...

just an opinion here, but if this car is goin to be used for drag racing (which it obviously sounds like it), you might want to make some brackets to raise the rear of the upper control arms. the car hooks a lot better when the intersection point of the upper and lower control arms intersects...

shotgun, whats up man????? we are everywhere........hahahaha

good lookin car man. its nice to see another grand prix fan around okc. i live in warr acres!!!

if you type in "g-body" in ebaymotors, it will bring up a bunch of results. just look for the double adjustable 12 bolt control arm kit.

well, indian adventures (chief many horses) make headers for this swap. also, i modified a set of a-body headers to fit a 455 in my 79 gp. the number 6 cylinder header tube needs to be modified around the rear, lower control arm frame mount. and then, the number 5 cylinder header tube hits the...

well, i have heard some people having binding problems with the a-body 12 bolt, but only because they do not do it right. if you use the control arms made for the swap, you will not have any binding issues. also, a ford 8.8 will work. trz motorsports actually make a kit for it now. then of...

cool, thanks for the pics man. awesome lookin car you have.
