Resolution for 2024 is getting this back on the road after hitting the wall in 2022. Also lost a rocker arm and pushrod took out the rods and pistons. Coming back with a bigger engine and a lenco transmission. Looking to put the 70 yr old butt in the mid 8's

Had a set on my Cutlass and the rear bolts holes didn't line up. Their fix was to force a drill bit thru the mount to move the hole. Bought new lower arms with heim joints and never looked back. Plus they are adjustable.

Have these Holley valve covers. Been bolted on but don’t look to be ever ran. Oil holes never been drilled. If something you might be interested in let me know and can post up more picture. Price is negotiable but it definitely won’t be eBay prices. Thanks

Got the lenco mocked up in my car. Switching from powerglide to lenco.

Installed the engine to ck fitment. Going to build solid mounts off the Chevy frame mounts. Other than a minor trim of the lower control arm mount the rs header fits as is. Hopefully the driver side won’t give me much trouble. As to et if it gets into the 12 sec bracket I’ll be good.

Thanks for the replies. J heads are going in the junk pile. Got it hoping it is a builder and not a pos like the last one(old running when pulled saying). Block? And crank only thing left from that one. intake should be ok(blocking off the heat crossover) If i use it. Leaning more towards a...

Picked up a 455 today, came with intake and headers. 73 with j heads that will be replaced. Manifold has been welded around the exhaust crossover on the bottom. Seems I’ve seen that before. Common the have this done? Engine going in a 83 Cutlass bracket Drag car. See no numbers on the headers...

Quote Coos Bay. Hmmmm. I graduated from Marshfield High School there in 1976. Still love visiting that area. Lots of great memories Graduated up the road at Siuslaw HS in Florence in 72. Still have family living there.

Has suspension limiters on the front that only allows about 3 in of travel until the front tires come of the ground. Only added the wheelie bars because I took a lot of weight off the front Was kinda surprised that it road the bars as long as it did. Going to play with bar height next time out...

Thanks for the kind words. Will need some suspension/wheelie bar tuning(may take them off). As for the video police what do you feel you are missing? Being in the car it is obvious I didn't take the video. Lucky there was somebody there to take it. It's all about the car and not the surrounding...

Time and money has caused it to take almost 4 yrs to get the replacement car for the Cutlass. 87 Monte Carlo SS Aero Coupe. Hit the bars on the hit and spun the tires most of the 1/8th mile. Went 6.04/110 Click on the youtube link for video. Too long to post here. https://youtu.be/2Vl3BQz0n5E

started with a 11/8 strange. Current is a 7/8 chrysler unit. Calipers are self adjusting . Found some caddy's from the late 60's plus some 90's chev/caddy's have 11in hd brakes with 7/8 bore wheel cylinders. Direct swap for the stock 15/16 cylinders. Maybe I need to either push harder or...

Been working on this 83 cutlass and having problem getting enough brake pressure to the rear wheels. Short explanation is it has a 12 bolt rear end from a 69 Chevelle and was converted to disc using PBR single piston calipers. Foot brake drag car and will turn the rear wheels anything above a...

87 monte

After winning car of the month(honor for sure)last September it was time to retire the cutlass. Quest to go faster took over. Only thing I didn’t Change was it had to be a g body. Well here is the finished product. 1987 Monte Carlo aero coupe. Factory body shell and everything else is...

Been working on this car for the last 3 yrs and would like to add a front spoiler/splitter to the front end. (VFN glass nose) Other than Lauren Engineering(out of business) is there somewhere else to buy something like that. Looked at several universal kits but nothing that looks good to me...

What is the cutoff date? Supposed to get mine out of the paint shop next week>

Swapped on into 84 chevy dually a few years back and a lot of issues would be the same. Using the stock mounts on your current engine it will bolt in. Wiring harness to run it injected will be about the same cost as carb swapping but a carb is simpler. As for running the coils you can then run a...

Supposed to be off an mid 80’s cutlass. Definitely will ck fitment.

Have a chance to get a factory aluminum hood for my cutlass. Was wondering how rare they are and what would be a good price. He bought it because he was told it would fit his 78 Regal(nope) Even had it painted to match his car.
