I actually just ended up going with the dirty dingo mounts and gforce gen 2 crossmember & adjustable trans mount. Everything else is Holley (accessory drive, manifolds, exhaust, etc.) and is very close alignment wise. I like the adjustability to move the engine forward a little. Plus the...

I would prefer someone who swapped a cutlass, but would like to hear experiences with other models as well. I've heard of the rear coilpack needing to be relocated. Why is this? Is the wire connection too close to the AC box? Is the coil bracket too close to the AC box? I may be moving the...

Anyone ever seen this style of tell tale sockets? This is the first cluster I seen with these and they lock in place way better than the ones I usually see. First picture is the ones I’m used to. Second picture is the different/better ones. Wondering if anyone has any of these or knows where...

Here’s what I did. I had a bunch of the custom washers made in case you wanted to go this route. https://gbodyforum.com/threads/my-solution-to-stripped-sway-bar-bolts-yes-its-overkill.44828/

I read a post the other day that the c5 caliper hits the frame and crushes the brake hose at full lock. Is this true for anyone else out there? I may just stick with blazer calipers if this is the case...

Montage, I’m going the same route (vette serpentine setup) and from Holleys instructions it says vette power steering pump pulley is too large and needs to be changed. The ribs all line up fine with the Trailblazer SS pulley? And the diameter clears the steering box? I’m looking at going this...

Out of curiosity, will the corvette accessories work with no mods or is it a must that the AC compressor be relocated

Yeah I noticed the same thing at car shows so I wondered if it would be lower with a carb as well.

Basically wanting to know if anyone knows the height difference between an LS and Gen 1 small block Chevy. I know this all depends on the intake height but assuming the same style manifold, which one sits higher in the engine bay.

I love how the mounting holes give the ability to shift to fit properly. I purchased an SC&C a while back and those were returned right back to them. One shouldn't have to install bolts at a 45 degree angle! Placed my order through summit. Can't wait for this!

I remember people used to say that dropping a Chevy into everything was belly button. Now, its dropping an LS motor that is belly button. :) Anyhow, I went with a SBC for my 87 442. Simply a ZZ4 crate engine with Fast Burn Heads and hot cam. 430hp/430tq which will be streetable and still...

Thanks, we are talking about a 420hp/440tq naturally aspirated 350. This is going to be the deciding factor if I go EFI or not. I want to use the factory lines. If I cannot, I am going to stay carbureted. Now I can avoid all this if I go with an Atomic EFI with the PWM fuel pump which...

Hey there guys, have a question here as I'm a bit confused. The Buick Grand National sending unit uses a 3/8" fuel feed with a 1/4" return. Now in stock form, this has proved adequate up to a decent amount of hp. However, when doing reading about people swapping V8s into their G Bodies, I...

I take it this thing was sold based on the relisting: http://www.ebay.com/itm/1978-Oldsmobile-442-Cutlass-Salon-Brougham-J87-vin-/271932969954?vxp=mtr&nma=true&si=i2gYMQYiNMjqlzd8x7BwPCtpqss%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557 So these things came factory with a Chevy 305...

Ok, so I have the answer really to this, but have another question. I've rebuilt the entire harness as I am using the stock ECU just for the AC. I did this for a slightly factory appearance as well as keeping the grommet to run my wideband O2 sensor harness through it. I am trying to...

Man, that would be a nice cheap and one of a kind project!

I am in the process of building a ZZ430 clone engine. In case you are not familiar, this was simply a limited edition engine built by Chevrolet I believe over 10 years ago. It was simply a ZZ4 shortblock with Fast Burnaluminum heads, LT4 hotcam and 1.6 Roller Rockers. Anyhow, I have the ZZ4...

Thanks guys. Instead of having to worry about a bracket on the intake manifold, I am strongly considering using one that mounts on the drivers wheel well. On my GN, it had a cable that looped from it, over the brake booster, and connected to the throttle linkage. I'd like to do something similar.

I'm trying to get everything together to install cruise. I would assume that in a Monte Carlo that the cruise control bracket is installed using one if the intake manifold bolts? Being that the vortecs bolts go up and down and not on an angle, I would assume the bracket from a Monte would not...

Ok, you are referring to the stock heads I take it? I went with a set of Aluminum Fast Burns.
