Hello out there,
I am a new greenhorn to your site and joined due to a question regarding installing a chevy 350 in my '80 Lemans wagon.
The lemans has a tired 301 Pontiac in it now which my initial plan was to install a '71 Pontiac 400 4 barrel out my '71 Grand Prix I thought of parting out. Just a small history, I always liked the '78-83 G-body wagons. My parents had a '81 Malibu wagon they bought new (traded our '70 Chevelle sedan in for it @ Good Chevrolet in Renton WA)with the gutless 267 though was reliable. After High school in '91, I drove it through college until the transmission went out and like an idiot I drove it to the bone yard (this happend in 1993). I purchased a '79 Malibu wagon a few years ago with a 305 and enjoyed it and am never suprised on how much they can store. I sold it to by a 1993 Chevy K1500 extended cab for towing though missed my wagon. I always liked Pontiacs version of the G-body wagon with a more plush interior and styling. For a while I looked on this website and all over the country for a decent Le mans wagon with no luck. Then luck did hit when I found my current Lemans through a contact who bought it for demolition derby last December,locally. I rescued the Le mans and last time it was driven was 1997 due to blown radiator hose. Anyhow any tips for the conversion would be great, thanks.
