    17-18 inch wheels for G Bodies

    Hello all, Sorry if there is already a thread on here for this topic. I tried searching multiple times and never came up with anything I was looking for. I am looking to put 17-18 inch wheels all the way around on my wagon. It's an 1981 Olds Cutlass Cruiser. I do have a 9 inch ford rear...

    Not if he’s out because he doesn’t like turbos or overdrive lol. Maybe I’m just interpreting it wrong. Lmbo

    How’s it going everyone? It’s been a while since I’ve been on here. Here’s an update on The Welfare Wagon. I actually created a YouTube channel about it called “Welfare Wagon”. Basically I’ve just been driving it. Recent modifications would be that I finally ended up figuring out the issue with...

    Cruise Control LS Swap DBC

    How many of you all have set up cruise control in your LS swapped cars? Mine is a factory cruise control car and I'm looking for the cheapest way to do it. I swapped in a 5.3 and 4L80E transmission and the 5.3 is a drive by cable engine. Thanks in advance!

    Hey all how is it going? I haven’t posted or even checked on here for a while. Been so busy with holidays and trying to get my turd going. Thought of you all today and figured I’d make a post! She goes now, but a few things still not right. Transmission is a 4L80e and doesn’t shift from 1st to...

    Thanks for the information. I have a hurst promatic I want to use but I’m not sure if I’ll be able to make it work.

    Doesn’t look like I have a picture of it on my phone but I will have video of it up on YouTube soon probably tonight or tomorrow night if you want to check that out.

    Oops...

    The way I look at it though, If I’m already going to be paying for a tune for the camshaft I might as well have the turbo there I so don’t have to pay twice lol. I’m a cheapskate.

    Oops...

    Ah yeah I remember seeing that. I’m just trying to stay on the cheap so yeah. Stock manifolds and all. We will see how it goes. I would love to put the turbo on it this go around but I don’t want to miss the power tour.
  14. WelfareWagon

    Oops...

    Yes that’s about the only way I’ve seen to control the transmission other than micro squirt or dominator. I decapped the stock injectors and that’s been my only modification to the engine. Other than that it’s stock right down to the bearings and head bolts.

    Oops...

    To be honest, I’ll probably just modify the crossmember I already have. I’m running fuel injection. Trying to decide if I’ll have time to put a turbo on it before power tour. Going to run stock computer and convert it to Holley dominator next year. Getting a 9 inch built for it right now. Should...

    Oops...

    Yes well kind of lol. Still gotta fit the 4L80E. That’ll be challenging.

    Oops...

    Oops. Got the 5.3 to set in there last night. Happy to see it in there! One of the motor mount bolts kind of sucked but hey, it’s in there! Got a couple videos of it on youtube if you want to go watch them, and subscribe if you feel like it. I will be posting more and hopefully the editing will...

    Rear end width

    Hello all! I'm getting a 9 inch cut down by a local guy here who's got a little bit of a good reputation and I'm wondering how wide you all's 10 bolts measure. I measured from axle to axle and got 57 11/16 and from backing plate to backing plate I got 52 inches. Thank you!
