What Did You Do To Your G-Body Today? [2020]

I never realized how similar the door panel is in the Grand LeMans to my GP.....I know yours is a 4 door but the handle that goes up and bolted to the door is what I have been looking for cause mine is trashed and that is the same as what I have...

It's yours when I part it out. I thought the 2 dr armrests were longer? I think it has 'Bonneville' molded into it.

Finished the exhaust last night, woke up to loudest thunder ever and the local BK burning down. Them flame broilers are serious business.

Had to cut the tip of the driver pipe off, extend it about a foot at the right angle to meet up with the tail pipe. No mufflers. Sounds good.

Traded the derpy quiet jegs mufflers for a pretty nice 600 holley.

Overall fit is meh. If you don't have a Sbc, don't have the jegs headers, I'd just pay a shop to build a custom kit.
But if you can weld, by all means build your own.

4/10. About what I expected. The extra 2-3 inches of ground clearance is nice tho.

It's warm enough today and put the Rocker Cover (Passenger Side) back on. After Start up no leaks from either Rocker Arm cover but. . . After a very rough cold start, found out for sure that the other oil leak is coming from the Oil pan. Now considering how brittle both Rocker Arm Cover Gaskets were I am going to have to assume the same for the Oil Pan Gasket. In this case the car will be going to a mechanic. I do not have the equipment necessary to replace the Oil Pan Gasket myself. while I am at it I bought the Oil Pan Gasket and a Carburetor Repair Kit, Mechanic is also going to have to be paid to bleed out the brakes too. . . This sucks I can't do things myself, I like to be more involved with repairs, but it can't be helped.


But at least I was able to get the covers and Gaskets on myself.

Yea I know and there’s only 2 screws holding the headers too. The wire is too short so I had to unplug it to remove the valve cover. Thanks though.

Holy shicoww, that looks great. Please send the finished product pics and put them in a thread. This a great idea for losing some weight and more of a unique look.

I plan on doing rear bumper this weekend so I’ll have the car ready to paint very soon hopefully! got most of the little body work it needed done last weekend. I post some pics of the rear bumper as I do it and then some finals after painted
