No they killed me...$700 for the brackets and pulleys only...alternator I bought years ago and bought ps pump afterthe March kit.
 
Got both my upper control arm braces installed. I got a picture of a test fit with the brace pieces welded together before welding to the frame and crossmember.

I was very surprised the see that the upper control arm bolts still had blue on them from the factory.

I got tired of looking at the cheap one piece composite lights someone put on my monte so i took them out along with the wiring. took out the plastic housing and spray painted them black... then i took the original two piece lights and wiring harness out of my malibu to put them into the monte, sprayed the aluminum light bezels black and ran out of time... but i set the two piece lights in the monte and it looks so much better... and the one piece composite lights look decent in the malibu, a hell of alot better than they did in the monte... i will post pics in my "build" thread...
 
Finally a decent spring day! Went to a car cruise at Quaker Steak & Lube. Met another guy there with an 86 Olds 442 who did a 403 swap. The motor fit perfectly - looked and sounded awesome. First time I've actually had another 80's 442 at the same show as me, and oddly enough we were the first two cars registered.
