Greeting Olds guru's! Before putting the malibu back on the road this year I figured I would tie up a few loose ends I ignored last year (before anyone jumps to say wrong section! lol, remember my chevy is powered by an Olds 350 :lol: ). The intake was seeping a little bit of oil so I figured...

This pretains more to wagons, coupes and sedans. Normally I use my jeep as my hauler, it usually does ok, over the weekend however I had a hell of a load on it (roughly 4000lbs+) and man did it have its tongue out. The little I6 just doesn't have the grunt to do it reliably (the transmission was...

As the title suggests, it seems nothing I get, no matter how I obtain it, is ready to use. I know I've posted pics of my gf's AMC Eagle SX/4, but I don't think I ever showed what it started out as. I bought it back early 2009, paid $500 for it, started working on it around June 24. It was a very...

I know I "shouldn't" do this sort of thing, but it was a very nice Sunday morning, I had just got through cleaning the car, and had to take it out on a drive around the block. Around the block led to a nice straight stretch of road through the center of a swamp, I couldn't help to do one last...

So for the current vehicle I am building (my winter rat daily driver), I decided to go back to something that actually works, lol. Enter: quadrajet. Got it froma friend of mine who was sick of seeing it on his bench :lol: . Kinda nasty, but I've seen worse. Cleaned up fairly...

Anyone else tune in to this new show on the Discovery channel? It follows the owners of Desert Valley Auto Parts. I've watched the two episodes so far, I was stoked when I saw the concept behind it, but I'm fairly let down on how it pans out. I guess I was expecting something a little more...

Good one to Pat, quick shipper, no bs, good communication, honest about part condition. I would definitely do business with him again :D .

My olds has had a few hiccups lately, first the msd box crapped out and left me on the side of the road, lucky me I had my stock HEI in the trunk, so I was back on the road in a few minutes :lol: . The other day I took my car to work, I got on it a little bit and it started mis-firing :x , so...

In a nut shell, I'm sick of my carter carb, I really don't like it, I'm sick of having to rebuild my carb every couple of years. I aquired a Quadrajet worthy of rebuilding, bought the book by Cliff Ruggles, and now ready to tear in, almost. I was wondering if anyone has used the rebuild kits...

While taking the gf out for valentines day lunch/dinner, I remembered a junkyard in the city we were in, and talked her into checking it out for the possibilty of AMC parts for her car. We walked around a while to come up short on that idea, but we did come across a toronado that still had an...

Just curious if anyone on here runs one, or knows someone who runs one. Have there been any problems with it or issues. I am debating buying one for my AMC project (stock 258 6cyl engine), I'm not a fan of the current ignition system on the car (motorcraft), and want to upgrade. I run the 6AL on...

A few years back I had an 85 cutlass salon, had a little 4.1 in it, slug but it would still lay a decent patch for what it was. Anyway leaving a diner one night, a friend of mine in his dodge ram decided to spin a half doughnut in the parking lot, me being the smart *ss that I am, I couldn't...

Hello all, new to the forum, so a little intro, I bought my first A/G body when I was 17 in 2000 (first car), 81 malibu classic 4dr, 229 v6, 200 metric transmission, nothing special but it was a virtually rust free car from Maryland, I'm 26 now, still own it, and it has gone though quite a make over...
