    On the 'mildly' Cheap SS Monte Carlo chasing a 9.0___

    Small update. I’ve been gathering parts. I found some larger wrist pins, balanced another crank, finally have had a proper valve job done along with some ghetto head porting, and of course more turbo - a ball bearing Pulsar unit that should max out around 1300 hp. Expectation is that the turbo...

    1983 Big Block Monte Slow Build (Lowered Expectations)

    Was that with peanut port heads? Sadly this one is 8:1 or less. I'd like to get some Vortec heads for a cheap compression bump along with a meager bump in flow. That and a better intake.

    What did you do to your non-G body project today? [2023]

    Camaro, Vette, and trucks all use different offset crank pulleys which should mean different offset on the water pump pulley, the pulleys don't come off the pumps do they?

    What did you do to your non-G Body project today [2024 edition]

    ...while I looked at a few more (all also way past their usefulness), and it magically cured itself unpon restarting. Idk if I freaked it out by cranking the ac right away or not, but it is back to "normal". And I did forget to push the ac button, so it was just blasting warm air. Next next week...

    Olds 358 build

    I had to buy another puller to get the timing gear off the crank but it is done. It has an acceptable amount of slack. Lifters came out easy with a strong magnet, they look good, kept in order. The cam also looks good, no pitting or excessive wear. Having no play in the valve train is a good sign.

    It might be time to sell and move on.

    ...is still jammed with Firebird parts so I need to move it outside for any work. It has an engine/transmission, so I can pull the plugs and crank it out with the starter. With a three gallon outboard gas tank I can actually run it. Once I finish the roll bar I can concentrate on the drivetrain...

    BUILD THREAD 84 El Camino build thread

    ...condenser for now and making way for electric fans. The fan shroud had the factory staples still, everything underneath looks super clean and factory except a newer bolt in the crank pulley, and newer fuel pump Does this shroud sticker indicate anything about the engine other than the obvious?

    Relay getting too hot!

    I am going to have to back chase some wiring first …. The pressure safety switch for FP is also closed during cranking. The “hot” wire is essentially a trigger for a relay i have mounted next to WP relay. Power From FP comes from FP relay, not the pressure safety switch. So wiring WP to this...

    MONTE CARLO How does a 7.5 rear end die?

    ...car with them. I was wondering if this is true for the 7.5 as well. I'm current building a 84 monte carlo ss that's gonna have around 450ish crank hp with a 350 sbc. And I want to know if just sending the rear end without replacement is just a totally bad idea. If it's gonna explode and take...

    '80 442 Vortec swap won't run...

    ...it hasn't fully pumped them up yet... A compression test will reflect that, or if any valves are stuck open... I don't believe any are, as cranking is even, giving no indication of loss... On a side note, I've been an ASE certified mechanic, since '91, and I've never had this much trouble...

    ...get those pictures asap as im away from the car at the moment. Not sure what the thd is, but I did check the distributer cap and rotor, I also cranked the engine with the rotor off to make sure it spun good. In the mean time I have a few other videos which may be of help of me reving it in...

    1970 Olds Cutlass S Rat Rod Style

    Still waiting on the machine shop. As mentioned, 20 engines a month for the oil field. I will call them again on July 8th, get them to fix the crank and I will do the assembly myself. A couple more pieces.

    Starter Issue - No Crank

    '84 Monte Carlo SS... My starter isn't cranking when I put the ignition switch in the crank position... It's how I start my car until I can afford another steering column. I also have a bump starter button under the hood that isn't cranking the engine over... I used this to start my engine...

    Belt - Upper Radiator Hose Contact

    ...belt. I have a Dirty Dingo truck idler pulley relocation kit on and and figure this may solve it, but I’m not thrilled with the wrap on the crank pulley. Positive is the Dirty Dingo kit will reroute the belt so that in the future we don’t have to pull the upper rad hose to remove/replace...
