Here is the one in my Monte Carlo. It is from a 2000 Grand Prix and the pic below it is from a 2000 Monte Carlo. I am trying to mod it to work with my Hurst Quarter stick.

No Problem, I guess someone likes to throw away money. I know I don't.

That is the craziest thing I ever heard. :wtf: :blam:

Your 79 sounds sweet. I haven't seen a set of Daytons in a long time. Not since I lived in SoCAL

Yea, that car barely beat a Ford dully. I wouldn't be braggin with it. 87LS/88SS that was a funny a$$ vid. That is why you don't race them cars.

Monte orlac is right they collapse the same way. If you want real good info on it then go to montecarloss.com and look in the do it yourself section there is a good write up on it. I am going to get one from a Jeep when all this snow melts.

It's not about making me feel better. I am sure that there are alot of real fast big wheeled cars out there. I am just trying to say that they aren't going to do what was stated about those cars outrunning a drag car on big tires. How bout this in this situation we are actually both right...

I went back and read the original posts that started this battle. The original aurgument was that a car with those big wheels could out run a drag car. Now, I haven't seen one vid backing up that statement. What I have seen is vids of cars with drag tires on them at the track and running the...

That car was a race car not a DONK. Why, is it that when you go to youtube and type in Donk you get pics of Cadillacs, Caprice, Regals, Montes, Cutlass, Impalas, Crown Vics, Linclolns, and a variety of others. I guess you need to get on Youtube and tell the restof the world that their cars...

Re: 82 Monte Build Thread - painted That is good news to hear. I am glad that the paint matches. I only said it cause some people arn't as skilled at it as others are. It's good that you have an experienced painter then. I bet it looks sharp. I know when my paint was new (7 years ago that...

I tried to run the Jegster on my car and had the same kind of header clearance as you. It didn't lin eup to the humps and the exhaust wouldn't work with it. I have been using a double hump out of a 69 Chevelle that came factory with the double humps. I had to slightly modify it but have been...

Re: 82 Monte Build Thread - painted LLoks great. It's the same color as mine. That thing is going to look real sharp when you are done with it. I am only scared that when you paint the hood, doors, and fenders that you are taking a chance of it not matching 100%. I am a bodyman by trade and...

Wl, a DONK is any type of car that is basically sitting up on wheels that are bigger than let's say 20". They are not just Caprices or Impalas. I never said that you have posted any Donks on this forum. There is nothing wrong with having forced induction or nitrous on them. but, the average...

First of all, the first vid has the donk loosing. The Monte was sleeping at the light and still managed to run him down and beat him. The second vid with the stang broke at the light and they would have been a good race. But, neither one of them had big tires on them. The street racing...

I never did understand what the big stink is with that. Some people like small wheels (which I dont) Some people like huge wheels (which I dont) I like the right wheels.. which for a Monte is probably 20's. They seem like they fit right. The funny thing is.. Big wheels and all... he'll prolly...

Sounds good. I think it has a big block in it. It has a coolant line going from the ater pump to the intake like a big block. What is up with the hood pins in it and a hood latch. Kinda gay i think. The car is nice looking I will give him that.

If you are looking to drive this everyday and aren't really going to be thinking of racing then i would go 3.08 gears like pontiacgp did. I went from a 2.29 rear in my monte and installed a posi and 3.42 gears and loved it. I then started to go more towards the racing route and eventually had...

That thing is a sick beast!! Be even scarier when it hooks up. :shock:

Re: 82 Monte Build Thread - in primer I also have an SS spoiler on mine and i like the look it gives the SC Montes. I think they should have came with one on it like the LS montes did.

Re: 82 Monte Build Thread - in primer Wow, that thing has come along way. I liked what all you have done with it. I thought about cloning mine to but, I decided to keep it original. I do love that way the SS looks in the front though. I think you will like the color you are going to spray I...
