As the subject line says. I am contemplating this swap. My car/truck search turned up only a few prospects, including the El Camino. I have to go back to the dealership and see if they're selling it. It's stuffed in the back of the building with some other cars that I guess are not...

........about my old Malibu as of late. If it's really languishing behind some garage and what the kid told me isn't BS, I think I might buy it back for the parts, rebuild the 305, and stick it in my S10 when the 2.8L decides it has had enough. Just a thought though. Would be nice to see what...

In the beginning of December I was t-boned in my Ranger on my way to work. I never got collision for my insurance so the other kid's insurance company paid for the value of my Ranger. It took a while to set everything in motion because the accident happened close to Christmas and you know how...

I am not really knowledgeable with the later model vehicles. I am fairly young with an ol' skool mindset. When gas prices began their assent in '01 to where they are now, I began wondering about modding my '78 Malibu for better mpgs. At first I thought about getting an Edelbrock Pro-Flo EFI...

Almost a year ago I sold my '78 Malibu for an economy V6 pickup. Since then, I befriended the girl who bought the car. I have a feeling that I will be working on the car again, so I joined this forum because I have a lot of tech questions. The Malibu was stock except for a rebuilt Rochester...
