I feel offended. All I got out of that was that my 88 SS is junk. Lol. Jk. I put a gm zz4 crate in my 88. I’m waiting to see what is going to go first. The 200 r4 or the rearend.

Thanks. I was unsure. I new the dealership did something but didn’t know what.

I have had awesome luck with The Parts Place. Sometimes the price may be a couple bucks more but it seems that they don’t blow up the shipping charges like others do.

All the parts I have ordered from opgi are for a chevelle and don’t work on the Monte ( they can work with mods) they don’t differentiate real well between the two body styles. I won’t buy anything from them anymore.

Were the protect-o-plates done by the dealership? I thought that they were.

If you have your build sheet look for the box the says emission and you’ll find a two letter code. The will be the emission decal you need for the radiator top plate.

I’m thinking your part is the transmission line bracket. Passenger side on the oil pan. But it doesn’t look like it’s all there. Or you could be correct in it being the positive cable holder. Passenger side oil I believe 2nd or 3rd hole. But I’m not 100 percent sure.

Welcome, very nice car. I know The Parts Place has the 71 lenses but I’m not sure about the whole assembly. You can try Konnicks. Information is in the resource section of the site.

If you can find a way to get the dark metal ring off then you can spot weld the clips on. You could try a little flat edge and bend the chrome up a little at a time going in several circles. Just a thought.

Them may work but I don’t think they will last. Original ones seem to be welded to a ring and the ring gets lip folded into the chrome.

I don’t have a second one. I could screw with people and put a boost gauge there. Lol.

Not hooked up but not horrible. Still thinking 🤔

I just found this “in stock “ ( lol I got to finally do that). I can probably mount it to one of the ashtray screws above the front of the console. Not what I want but it’s free. Lol.

I can if I find the one I want. Other than that steering wheel that interior looks pretty familiar. Lol.

Ya I already got the sonny gauge package. I went volts instead of amps. I didn’t quite think that through long enough. Lol. Oil pressure would have been better but then I would be asking the same the about a volt gauge. Lol. I can’t win.

I think it’s like 45 bucks. But it is probably junk and unreliable. They are all shipped from China. Autometer and Dakota don’t have anything like that. I wonder why. Lol. I don’t care if it’s seen, I just don’t want to drill or cut.

Something like this but I think they are probably junk. I was kind of hoping someone would have tried something like this to give me some sort of feedback.

They are good ideas and really look good but that’s not what I want. No cutting or drilling if possible. I want something inconspicuous. ( yes I had to spell check that. It’s a big word for me. Lol).

Just did it to me again and locked me out in the middle of a response. Took awhile to get back in.

I would like to add an oil pressure gauge. I’m not cutting the dash and I really don’t want a knee knocker. I started looking at little digital gauges that use double sided tape to stick it somewhere. Has anyone used anything like this or have a different suggestion. I’m open. I just want to see my oil pressure. Thanks

That would work if Jeff was coming to Carlisle.

I know and I still need one. If we can find a way to get it to Cincinnati. Lol. My hood is naked. The only bag of parts I have left are the clips to hold it on. Lol.

You can remove the cat, but where you are at can you do it legally? It won’t hurt performance. Yes you can put dual exhaust on.The parts list will depend on the type of headers you have and what type of sound you want. You may try to look for a local muffler shop that can custom make exhaust. Shipping exhaust from the states( even though it is probably made in China) may make it cost prohibitive. Wait a minute, why would that have a cat?

That grommet is probably solid so no oil don’t blow out and dirt( or mice) get in. I’m hoping that they have a breather on the other side though.

Wouldn’t that be SAE ? Lol.
