Via a combination of Summit, Dixie, Mike’s Montes, Leash Performance, the jungle store.


Another Walbro “Hellcat” pump from Summit, already had one I previously planned to run in the tank. Going to leave the 255lph in the tank and run two kitty pumps in a surge tank. Powered by a Leash dual relay kit.
Ordered the surge tank through Amazon as it was a little over a $100 cheaper than anywhere else.

Picked up a Poly body bushing kit from Summit. I was pretty close to getting solid body bushings ultimately was worried it would be too rough.

Then from the other guys

It was a little frustrating to have to order some of that stuff considering I had them new already but a few things got lost in the move from NC.

Also did an order from Motion Raceworks along with another place but I want to wait to share those pics when it gets here. 😁
 
Bought a new front center bumper filler for the Malibu, painted it and put it on this week. However, since rear bumper fillers aren't around anymore for 78-up Malibu's, I decided to make a front one work on the rear bumper. Had to cut the center of it out to get around the license tag box and drill a few holes, it actually fit and looks great.

OK, here goes. everytime a post like this is a chart topper i'm always a day late.... lol YESTERDAY! i bought a mechanical temp gauge, auto meter off amazon. some wks back had a oil pressure sensor explode on me, where i was out in middle of nowhere puttin out heavy smoke not knowin if on fire under hood nor gave AF! i had to make it to the gas station 1-2 mi down the rd, if on fire can't go to a better place cuz ya hope they got extinguishers and i wasnt gentile gettin there. the funniest thing was the swamp yankees of that area thought i was there startin a car show.... it seems almost like in my area to see a monte SS on the road is like seein a BIGFOOT

anyway my goal has kinda been goin back in time with my SS, meaning no AC, radio, dash lights (been out) and now critical gauges failing..... oil gauge failed along with that oil sensor that almost cost me an engine.... never considered it but here i am now goin for mechanical gauges for a 2 pod A pilar down the rd.

Can’t wait to put this thing on!
Need to get longer hardware to fit the motion quick release. Hopefully at least find some black ones but I would love some to match brass/gold buttons

That's great news! I was looking at this a couple of days ago when I retightened the bumper and wondering what to do. Now I know!
