84 SS Update, Lowered, Wheels, Big Brakes ....

We did it at a buddies shop and put it right on the rack. Camber is set at -.5, caster 4 I believe and .15 degrees of toe in.

Sounds good... I hope I can at least get those settings on the Malibu.

Great job. What size tires did you go with? New motivation, how about a 572. 8) Ok maybe a less expensive aftermarket 540. Ack don't tell me it has to be another sbc 😢 if so she is a big car make it something over 400ci. Something that would still make some big drag radials scream on pump gas.

BFG 245/45/ZR17. I want to do a LS series, but I will have to see what the funds look like.

Tony, below is a pic of the drivers side to give you an idea of the angle the tie rod is at. In the pic it looks worse than it is. I think it oly goes up hill 1/2" or so.

Here is a link to the LS1 conversion. The bracket PDF is on the last page.

Does this car still ride good? I want a lower stance on my Monte, but dont want it so low it sacrifices the ride.
