ooo, a malibu sleeper. That's some goooood sh*t there. I stole some ideas from a guy I met who had one. The thing had a 305 chevy with all the right parts. Had a GN rear, aluminum drive shaft, 3000+stall speed, cant remember what transmission it was. The engine just had all the right stuff that worked together, the valvetrain, heads, everything; not sure if he added a stroker kit to it, but who knows. The thing was a beast and whipped TWO 5.0 mustangs from stoplight runs - one of which RAN ON NITROUS!!! By far the best sleeper I've ever seen. Good choice.

i think it is a good car for the money. once again not the standard two door as someone else said. it is a different side of things with the four doors. but i still think they are very respectable

Definitely worth the $200, even if you gotta do a bit of sheetmetal work! :D What kind of engine was it originally?

when i got it someone had already put a 350 crate engine in it, but the guy i bought it off wanted it for his s-10. It was originally equipped with a 4.4 liter or something liket that, i was able to trade him a 700r4 for the th350 that was in it because i didnt want to change the crossmember, mainly because it was cut out for duals already and i dont think they ever put a 700r4 in the old malibus.
