Hey guys, just purchased an 85' Cutlass, it's a bit of a beater, not too far gone but I'm thinking of stripping 'er and using the drivetrain and suspension which are like new and swapping over to another G body. Heres what I got.......

mildl perf rebuilt 350 with TH350
edelbrock suspension kit
Hotchkis front and rear sway bars
10 bolt posi rear with 3:73 gears
Dynotech headers
Flowmasters with 2.35 duals
Quicksilver shifter
plus wheels, rims, etc, etc

My question, will and can most of these parts fit a 1980 Malibu wagon? Found a pretty clean one for a reasonable price. I assume most of these parts will bolt right on most G Bodies? Still looking for a good recipient for all this cool stuff but just want to make the right choice. Your help is greatly appreciated!

Yes 😀
 
Transfer the front brake rotors over along with the rear axle. GM went to metric threaded wheel studs in 1982 (I believe). That way, you can use the wheel nuts from the Cutlass on all 4 wheels on the Malibu. Good luck, and please post some photos if you can.
