    79 Monte computer??

    Does the 79 Monte have a computer? I've heard yes and no. I'm putting an edelbrock performer manifold on soon. Wondering if removing the EGR or other emissions components will cause performance issues. Heard the computer controls carb and dizzy.

    Edelbrock intake 2101. Carb?

    Headliner job.

    I found a headliner board for my 79 Monte at a junk yard, in 1 piece! Came from an 83 grand prix. 17 bucks vs a 100+ for a new 1. I'm pretty sure I know what to do. Any tips would be appreciated. Also I ordered a turn Signal switch today too. I am waiting on that and a manual too. I know I'll...

    Hey all, I got a 79 Monte stock 305, th350, 273 gears (possibly going to 3.73 soon). I found an edelbrock performer EPS for really cheap. Would this fit? Would it work with or with out emissions issues? Would it even be worth the effort?
