Just saw this on instagram today, I wonder what Holley is trying to make for gbodys, maybe some kind of fuel injection compatible with the gbody computer or something.
If you are interested go to their instagram and they have a form to fill out in their bio
(They dont want to buy, just test stuff)

But why not '81's? Those are computer cars too or do they have the same lack of knowledge of '78-'81's & '82-'87/'88's are the same cars?

Arnt 78-81s the years gm was transitioning from imperial to metric hardware. If so I would maybe guess it has to do with how they are bolting thing on. Even then I feel like it wouldnt be hard to accommodate both imperial and metric,

It all was '78 for the metric dominated hardware with the only change being in '82 going to metric wheel studs.

I like how they show a highly modified Malibu but are asking for cars with a 307 or 305.

I say everyone needs to push mclellan83 to send his monte to them. They can fix whatever isn't running in it while they make it a test mule.

Can't hurt.

I wonder what the compensation is.
Most of the the time it's a gift card to whomever has the car, and you get to keep whatever they made/designed.
