  1. hey all im currently pricing options for my front suspention rebuild and have tons of choices.. I know the advantages of going with tubeular control arms over the stock ones but I was wondering if some folks have tried tublar uppers and stock lowers with all poly bushings...is that even possible to do? jus kickin around some ideas in my head and want some opinions on which way to go...the car is gonna be a street car so are tublar control arms over kill for the street?
  2. hummmmmm thats a good question...ill check into that one
  3. Classic Performance products?? since my whole front end is apart now is the time to redo the front suspention(the snow ball continues) and i was shopping around and found this LINK! and at $733...the price sounds good...kinda to good to be true compared to BMR, PST & others out there so Im jus wondering about the quality? My car is gonna be a street car but I want it to handle real good and loose the land yacht handleing it currently has. My other thought was jus to get all new POLY bushings for my OE control arms but wheres the fun in that? any way any opinions???
  4. i belive they can...I know a guy who has the BMR upper and lower control arms on his street car..he wanted bigger wheels on it and went that route to beef up the front end...rides pretty good for a 70 chevelle with 22's on it!
  5. man talk about snowball effect..im in the middle of that right now!!
  6. get a heat shield for the starter........
  7. those came stock on vettes? not good for a body cars.....
  8. man that car tilt thing looks scarry but wouldda been very helpful to me this past weekend as I was on my back welding...Iwant a rotessorie now!!!
  9. judgeing from where you live..u really dont need an electric choke...get a manual choke 600 cfm eddy carb and a the rmp air gap intake...that will work real good on you motor with a stock cam and If u decide to upgrade the cam..thats a cool intake to have...lol thats what I run and it works great!
  10. i think thats exactly what it is but who would do that unless they dont want to jack by the diff because the car could roll forward???? but thats kinda far fetched!!!
  11. maybe a vaccum leak????????
  12. I think you can use the same top U jus have to get different rubber holders for the 2 core..U know the rubber cup holders that goon top and bottom..I think those are the only differences!
  13. i second the Champion radiator...I jus got one for my monte and the fit was perfect...havent got it on the road yet but it will idle for ever at 185....so ..so far so good!!!!
  14. man MGD that sure frees up tons of room..makes it eaiser to get to that last spark plug back there....that might us get added to my todo list!!!!!
  15. that was cool...thats a great sounding small block......nice video

    radiators

    you could also go with Champion radiators....I got a 2 row aluminum one and the fit is perfect and the price was perfect..the only down side so far is the visual quality of the welds.....works great tho! LINK!!!! I like it
  20. i love the sound of ur motor.......the garage is supposed to be a mess...that shows progress being made...so congrats on gettin her up and runnin.....
  21. you got a beautiful car there...witha theme and everything..I like that.....and that show looks real cool too!!!!

    Hey Nastee78 do you have a youtube video of your car? I swear ive see a video of that monte in the picture..fresh out the paint shop..NICE!!!!
  23. nice job..gotta have the music in the car.....
  24. a drop base should work since ur engine sits 3/4 higher..I have teh performer rpm on my 350 with a regular aire filer..no drop base...and before I got my fiberglass hood it was only about 1/2 inch clearence under there!!!
