    Hey, question about carb swaps

    Hmm, okay. Thanks D: That's alot of stuff to look through, haha. I've got a 2bbl on the engine now and kinda wanna get rid of it. I can trade my 390 away for a quadrajet.. Would that be the better thing to do? And maybe the easier conversion?

    Hey, question about carb swaps

    I recently moved to a new place that doesn't require emissions anymore. So out came all of that from my Malibu, haha. Reguardless, I came across a Holly 390CFM carb. Will this fit onto the 267 and will it work properly without much issue?

    Another engine question :V

    Engine hestitation.

    It's as stock as you're gonna get, save for an edelbrock air cleaner and a magnaflow high flow cat. The old muffler was stolen off the car for some reason, so I've been putting around without it here and there waiting to get a new one.

    Engine hestitation.

    I noticed that my car will hesitate once maybe a minute or two after starting it up. Not sure if thats a bad sign or not, or just a fuel line problem. But yeah, it'll start right up, gotta give it a little gas to keep it running then it'll run fine. Then I'll take it around the corner and...

    I've got a 305 from an 87 Camaro resting at the parents' house at the moment. It's been rebuilt and everything and was intended to go into the same car, but that car was totalled. I'm wondering how I would get this same motor here into my malibu and get it to pass emissions here in oregon...

    Hey guys, young guy new to the whole G-body thing :3 I've always loved them to death so I finally picked up a 1980 Malibu myself and was just poking around for places where I can pick up advice and a little love for my car!
