Hello all, yup another canadian :shock: .Im happy to have found this forum as I've always loved G-Body models since I was a kid.I own a 1988 Cutlass Supreme which im restoring to my liking.It came with the 307 V8 4BBL that has been laiden down with the anti pollution systems of the 80's :roll: .Im putting into her a 383 stroker which will be the last piece going in next summer.It took me 4 yrs to restore what i've done 😳 but to do it the way I wanted ,patience was a must.Right now the following repairs and changes have been done: All the suspension is new from the sway bar to the shocks,tie rods,ball joints,coil springs etc.... The diff has been swapped out to 3.73 mosar racing gears,grand national 28 spline axile shafts,summit chrome cover.Rear brakes changed but still drums just all new lines and all.Front are powerstop crossdrilled and slotted rotors,bearings seals and rubber hoses changed.Calipers upgraded and Hawks ferro carbon pads.I have all new gauges from autometer (procomp) but im still tryin to figure out how to build a mounting plate for a custom dash ,not much room 😢 .I have the th700 4r rebuilt for 450hp and a 2600rpm stall converter(yeah i know 3000stall would be better ).I won't go into detail on the other stuff(fans,rad,steering wheel etc) ,ill figure out how to post picks soon.I was lucky when I bought the car 4yrs ago for 3500 the guy gave me the chrome pieces still in the GM packaging for the window contour.I found the door.trunk seals from super soft seals at summit racing and the windo felts so im happy about that.Well thats about all for an introduction,thanks for reading all this lol
