    Interesting Build Sheet

    IMG_0453 by slowestmonte posted Feb 25, 2018 at 10:35 AM So when I pulled the door panel on my '88 LS this morning, I found this taped to the inside. I guess GM used these to tell the assembly line what to do with the doors. Just found it interesting because I had never seen one, probably...

    What are these electrical connectors?

    I have these two electrical connectors unplugged in my engine bay, along with one down below that I couldn't get a picture of. The two up top are right in front of the carb, and the one underneath is hanging down next to the oil filter and looks kinda similar to the green one in the picture...

    Super Low Gas Mileage

    Like I said, it has the full ccc system now, but I'm still getting bad mileage.

    Super Low Gas Mileage

    So long story short I decided to replace my E4ME and completely remove the CCC and emission systems months ago, dumb idea, I have since put the original system together with a brand new rebuilt E4ME from mountain man carbs.I have EGR blocked off, the AIR system is only about half there, and I...

    HELP- Hard Staring

    I ended up being able to fix the problem: It is a reman qjet from mountain man carbs, but the issue was entirely human error, and I felt pretty dumb after realizing it. The carb I had on the car before this would leak all the gas out of the carb while sitting, so you would have to pump the gas a...

    HELP- Hard Staring

    I didn't really plan on converting to a manual choke, I think I phrased it a little wrong. When the car doesn't start, I push the "elephant ear" (heard it called this, don't know its real name) up, and the car starts. So I was just planning on rigging up a choke cable to this to engage it...

    HELP- Hard Staring

    So I have a stock 88 Monte Carlo LS with a new Carb, and it runs great and has absolutely no problems, except one. When I go to start it, I have to pump the gas three or four times, then when I'm cranking it I have to pump the gas as fast as possible to get it to start. One time I couldn't get...

    Late model seats in a G body?

    I just picked these seats up at the englishtown swap meet in the spring for $5 (pretty good deal if you ask me), but I have no idea what they're out of. They're the typical G-Body shape and the same upholstery style, and the mounting holes almost lined up perfectly, but the fabric is a weird...

    Stalling/Dieseling?

    So I just swapped my 88 Monte Carlo LS 305 back to a completely stock top end. I put the original intake back on (cleaned thoroughly and made sure it was in good condition), put a brand new rebuilt quadrajet on it (E4ME, all the sensors are hooked up, but not all the vacuum ports are), the EGR...

    What holds this trim on??????

    There are clips on the back of the chrome piece that go into holes in the the sheet metal of the fender. How do I know this? Most of mine have fallen off :blam:

    Help with CCC wiring?

    So I've decided to go back to an E4ME CCC quadrajet on my 88' LG4, but I need a little help with the wiring. Right now has a Holley and the ECU removed, but I did this myself and left everything connected except the carb/distributor. However, when I put the new carb on I want to make absolutely...

    Help with vacuum lines?

    So I've decided to go back to a E4ME quadrajet CCC setup on my 88' LG4 after not liking my holey HEI setup. One of my problems is that when I swapped it i took off all the old vacuum lines, but that isn't the main issue. The main issue is that a lot of them were missing already or dry rotted to...

    What's the right carb with my engine setup?

    After hearing about the MPG numbers you guys are getting, I think I may go back to the old CCC carb, I'll just have to get all new sensors and rebuild it, and I'll have to put the old manifold and distributor back on. Good thing I didn't cut any wires.

    What's the right carb with my engine setup?

    Wow, I didn't realize you could get upwards of 25 with a rochester. Maybe I'll have to make the old manifold work and get a pre computer rochester.

    What's the right carb with my engine setup?

    I'm the one who replaced the intake and all, but I didn't do it to make the car faster. The original carb was shot, the distributor needed a new cap and rotor anyways, and the car endlessly dieseled. I tried adjusting timing and spent hours tuning the carb, but when I stripped out the coolant...

    What's the right carb with my engine setup?

    So right now I have an 88 Monte Carlo LS with the LG4 305. It has a stock engine, but it has an Accel vacuum advance distributor, Weiand Speed Warrior high rise dual plane intake, and a Holley 1850 carb. The Holley was supposedly rebuilt before I bought it, but it has all sorts of problems with...

    88' Monte Carlo Fuse Box?

    These pictures do help some, but what I really need to know is what these two ignition ports on the left side are normally connected to.

    88' Monte Carlo Fuse Box?

    Does anyone happen to have a diagram of a fuse box for an 88 Monte Carlo ls INCLUDING what is normally wired to the ignition ports on the left side of the fuse box?

    Car is Stalling Under Acceleration?

    Yes I cleaned the surfaces, I believe the adapter was defective, It seemed a little "off" If you know what I mean. I mean it wasn't the most expensive one so I wasn't expecting much in terms of quality anyways. I definitely did use the gaskets, because I realized halfway through hooking the carb...
