Very nice! Your monte and the malibu seem to be inseprable! Very nice car. I like the pipes. Long dual exhaust looks so good on GBodys very well done! Your set up is very similar to what I'm running. Any more details? Specs? Looking good!

Nothing wrong with that 010 blocks are dynomite. Yeah sounds like all you need is a converter and some gearing and you'll be set! Theres always something you need, LOL its never ending! Nice car, I'd like to hear it! With that cam it should have a pretty lumpy idle?

😛 yeah it sounds healthy, But the cam is screwing me because there is too much overlap------> it wont go through any emissions test. :evil:

I should figure out a way to downdload a soundclip.

Anyways... What does it fail on emissions? I'm gonna put a pretty big cam in mine and i don't wanna turn into a permit wh*re.

Hydocarbons, my cam has to much overlap in the valves. In other words there is too much unburnt fuel. I would suggest not going too lumpy if you want to be able to go through aircare.
