I'm going to open up with a closing remark, which most of you, and especially I, will most likely go "damn, that sucks." I have sold my G-Body El Camino and today was the last time I drove it. She served me well. But enough of that. Time for the fun stories. My favorite story involves...

8:32 A.M. May 19. 2007. I was rearended by an unlicensed driver in a Dodge pickup truck, throwing my car into my good friend James' Saturn in front of me. My front and rear bumpers are both pushed in, my tailgate is beaten horribly. My driver side mid/rear quarter panel is bent in. It's...

unless you get a shift kit... best thing you can do is hit hard from first to second, i have a turbo 350 with shift kit in it, and boy does it kick. i know you can buy a 3.73 rearend change kit and a posi locker for about 500 dollars, depending on where you buy it. most people from around...

Hmm. I've already made up my mind about getting 3.73 gears and a posi locker. Problem is right now money, and one last question... How big is the gear box? 7.5 or 8.5 inches?

Oh, I know it's not posi... but all I need to know are the gears and how should I go about getting 3.73:1 gears and a posi locker

Thanks, sweet. I'll be sure to look.

Well, my question, what's the gear ratios on the stock?

So not too long ago I posted an article on here about stock transmission problems on my TH-200 three speed. Now I have a question about the stock rear end that's found on the El Camino in 1986. What's the gears and what would be my best bet as to get posi-traction? edit: Alright, so...

Prost, to the Ute. I've been knowing about it for the longest time, and as a HUGE El Camino fan(but having no money to buy up as much as I'd like) the only two other cars other than the el camino that have caught my eyes are the Ute and the SSR(With the LS motor and tremec 6 speed, won't go...

I had the same problem, though it was fixed when I got it painted. The trim was adjusted and it looks fine now.

:!: UPDATE :!: I just got a 700R4 and Torque Convertor for.... pause for excitement.... $100. At this point most of you would say "Oh, it's probably broken." For those who think that, no. It's a perfect running transmission and all I need now is to take it to my transmission guy. It's...

Yeah, as I was explaining what my transmission guy told me.... But my dad is trying to give me the four speed trans out of his 86 Monte Carlo SS, but I have NO CLUE what transmission came in those(stock) and that's another thing I'd like to find out.

3 speed. edit, I kinda hinted it in my first post when I said "I pray it'll go into third"

First off I'll start with "I don't know much about cars." I know what I got and that's all. I acquired a 1986 elky from my mechanic last year at a good price of $2500, car was in excellent condition, rebuilt engine only had 16k miles on it and only a few body issues (cracks and a little...
