Where did you get those rims? Can they be bought without the chrome centers and just all cast in that design? I really like them, that's the closest thing I have seen to the look on the late 80's Monte Carlo SS rims I am jonesing for.

got my throttle body modified for better air flow and put on a injector spacer

probably going to get a hypertech power charger and a spacer for under the tbi

if you do this mod to your tbi leave a little on the side to hold the air breather. you can see in my pics what I'm talking about

lol yea but I could use some extra cash lol.


I've been reading and thinking about mine more I think I may go for the plates that use the stock v8 mounts and pads if I ever get to swap mine.

Also saw that ram horns fit, or at least they did for one guys swap.

I but them from summit before researching.

so I used what I already had

try listing your tbi on ebay

I am not sure rams horns would fit

one guy on fb had posted a pic and they did, but he had a motor plate for a mount so he may have moved it back further then normal.

ok solved my header clearance issue did not have to cut the motor mounts off

we had a discussion with a 2 pound hammer it decided to see things my way

got a new tv cable and throttle cable for the 350 and dug up a 350 tbi

Sometimes vehicles need a good talking to with a hammer before they relent.

got 5 quarts of oil and a oil filter

and just ordered a pair of 2'' drop spindles and 3'' rear blocks to drop it


now I am out of cash for parts for a little bit but I got enough to keep me busy for a while.

next I need to get new shocks and a cowl hood

thinking about getting new fenders and a core support so my front clip will be all new and straight
