    454 chevy

    I am a member over at Team Chevelle,mostly because of the big block stuff that I like to stay on top of. There is more than one of the guys there making decent power and running good times with a basic stock,low compression big block with upgrades similar to what you are planning. Guy

    New power window motors?

    A few years ago I put a new Cardone motors,part # 82-144,in the passenger door. It made quite a big difference over the old one. Guy

    Who can swap an engine inNJ?

    Cuse99,this is just a suggestion as I can not recommend anyone in your area. But,you could try calling the guys at S-K Speed in Long Island; https://www.skspeed.com/ I dont think that they do the work you are looking to have done,but someone there may know someone that does. But they have been...

    Engine built 15 years ago...Finally running!

    Yeah,those 7.5's wont stand up to a whole lot of abuse for very long. And there probably wouldnt be much difference,if any, between the crosswind and the air gap intake.AFAIK,Professional Products are copies of the Edelbrock intakes. Sounds like a fun combo,enjoy !!! And welcome aboard from Nova...

    Oil filter options

    I had issues too with the kickout on my Moroso pan and 2 inch headers,there was no way the oil filter would come out of there. I installed a remote oil filter,single model,mounted behind the drivers side headlight. I dont consider it to be "cluttered" as the lines are mostly out of sight. Now...

    Astro or Jeep Steering Shaft?

    New to this site. 87 MOnte SS replace with larger engine?

    I know that right now the 305 isnt worth a whole lot. But,in the years to come an all original 1st gen small block is going to be hard to find. Around here,all the older stuff is already hard to find because cars get crushed pretty regularly. Might be worth hanging on to it if you have some...

    I put a set of the Scat/Procar Elite seats in my Monte and really like them. I bought them with their brackets for a simple bolt in. I had the rear seat reupholstered to match the fronts. Guy

    New to this site. 87 MOnte SS replace with larger engine?

    By the time you pay all the duties,shipping/handling,core charge,etc.. then add another $ 1-1500.00 for the difference in the dollar. That would be ballpark guess.Right now the CDN dollar is pretty good compared to the US buck. If you do think about a GM crate from your local dealer,I would...
