    How I Came About Res

    I had the isolator in place. Braided line all the way. As far as I know, it did it's job. It could have been alot worse. I had to go running in to my place of work to gather the extinguishers to get the fire out. Then had to run back around the building to where my car was and put it out...

    Pictures uploaded in gallery. Not real good with a camera though. Can't help it.

    Reproduction GNX Rea

    Very expensive I agree, but still cool. I couldn't afford it but if I could, I'd have it. Until I found that site, I had no idea that GM went to such lengths in the engineering phase of this package. I can attest to the fact that the 8.5" rear are very tough. I could only imagine what it...

    Reproduction GNX Rea

    I guess I would look twice at those too. Any G-Body most likely.

    Reproduction GNX Rea

    Reproduction GNX Rear Suspension https://www.kirbanperformance.com/index1.htm Just found a really cool reproduction suspension for any 8.5" rear equipped G-Body. I would do a double take if I saw this set up on a GP or Cutlass. This site has alot of good reproduction parts that you can't...

    air bagin malibu????

    I have been tossing around the same idea. I have seen a couple of g-bodies bagged in magazines. They look like they were made for them. Air Ride Technologies has a direct bolt in for the rear. As for the front, trim the spring pocket brows and grind down the inner lip above the spring. This...

    I looked at the Keisler units but I'm not buying one. I just liked the option that they have reproduction pedals and linkage. Manual equipped cars are getting very scarce in west Texas. Junkyard jewels are my favorite and a used T56 from a destroyed F-body is fine with me.

    How I Came About Res

    How I Came About Restoring My Malibu After getting my Malibu from my parents, I quicky added a 350 with the usual heads, cam, intake and exhaust mods. The trans had some mods and the diff was replaced. I had it repainted, re-upholstered, and the rubber replaced. The only thing I never messed...

    I read an article in Car Craft about their swap kits just today. It's in the Feb 06' issue. Kits look very straight forward. I was looking at one of these but as far as I can teel they only come in 5-speeds. This is still cool but I want that extra gear. They can also hook you up with repo...

    i need help

    Some mods that really made my car my enjoyable was the addition of the Hotchkis rear suspension kit and springs. My Malibu used to bounce around all over before the rear kit. Another week link is the stock 7.5" differential. Look for an 8.5" from a 442, GN, Monte, or something along that...

    Hooker Comps worked well on my small block. Going with a LS series HD 6.0 liter now. Street and Performance makes swap headers and motor mounts form them now.

    It's great that there is such an interest in G-Bodies now. I'm sick of picking up HOTROD magazines and seeing nothing but 69' Camaro's. I honestly believe that the G-Bodies are the next hot ticket. I have been involved in these cars since I was born. I received my 1980 Malibu Classic from my...
