    New Acquisitions

    Figured I'd drop back in for a very small update on both cars. Cutlass has a 350 sitting between the rails but only bolted in so far but mild cam has been broke in on my run stand. Ended up with a tbi 350 with freshened up heads that i had shaved, converted to carb, and a fresh th350. Century...

    New Acquisitions

    As title states, just took delivery of a new to me 81 Buick Century wagon with factory buckets and console/shifter. The car has 3.8 in it but that will be short lived. No hate but it will get an LS swap with t56 and 8.8 rear end with True Trac and 4.10 gears. Most parts other than fuel system...

    What's up guys? It sure has been a while since I've logged in here but here I am. I just thought I would show up and let you guys see my oldest sons update and my youngest sons first car. My oldest has my old 86 Supreme with sbc and th350. Trans is messed up, I have a buddy that's gonna go...

    Driveshaft length

    Hey guys, Long time no see, it sure has been a while since I signed in. I've been browsing thru occasionally since my wagon has been on the back burner. I recently had a fire lit under me to get this thing going. I acquired a low compression 290 hp crate motor. I swapped the heads, cam...

    I'M BACK and with a new horse in the stable

    Finally got the motor dropped in but at a stand still because my garage doesn't have heat and me and the cold don't get along. Still having a header issue but I think I'll do a couple dents and make the f body shorty headers work vs sending them back again, maybe.

    Gauge swap wiring

    Thanks guys. That's the answer I was looking for. I will be looking for another underhood harness but I can splice/strip down this harness as need be. Just want it to as little clutter as possible.

    Gauge swap wiring

    I put a GP dash in my Malibu. I got the whole dash harness, but the problem is, the dash came with the idiot light cluster. I've since bought a factory gauge pack. The sensors are different between the 2. Which wires will I use to hook up the gauges since the connections are different. The pics...

    Help

    Just tried to mock the headers up, no go. Passenger side is hitting the A frame and drivers side is hitting the slave cylinder ear. Dang.

    Help

    Need help. Still need to drop the back of the engine about 3* but what does the final drive angle and pinion angle need to be?

    Which ones will I need?

    I think I have pretty much decided to run a 20 inch wheels on my wagon, if, I can be sure that they will work without mods other t g an maybe some spacers. This is where I need some insight/help. Which part number would work best for the front and what part number for the rear...

    I'M BACK and with a new horse in the stable

    Wow, been a while huh. I decided today that I was gonna revive my thread so I had it unlocked. No updates today but hopefully I'll have some in the coming days since I have the whole week off work. I'll be getting the car out of the corner to prepare to drop a temporary drive train in until I...

    Going to the yard to pick up these bucket seats and measure this dash in the morning, if the weather cooperates.

    Dash swap thoughts

    At this point, I think I like headaches. At least it seems that way. Don't really want an Autometer type gauge look. If I do end up keeping the GP dash, I'd like to find a factory tach cluster and send it all to Dakota Digital to convert them to a VHX gauge. I just don't know. Time will tell.

    Dash swap thoughts

    I almost agree 100% with Longroof as well but I wouldn't mind something out of the ordinary. Not that the GP isn't. I think it could be ok. As far as the electronics go, I'll be using an LS 0411 pcm powering an LTx setup, so it'll be less of an issue to make work. I'd also like to use steering...

    Dash swap thoughts

    Ok guys, I have a grand prix dash in my Malibu wagon but I'm wanting to go a different direction, again. Ha. Would it be extremely difficult to mod and install a 2002 Monte Carlo SS dash and 4th Gen f body 6 speed console? I'm starting my build over again with new engine and all so I want it...
