Hi `Jake & Welcome to the Monte Carlo Family...

Congrat's on your graduation & you sure got a awesome gift of a 4th Gen Monte Carlo S.S.

I like your plans, and I like the "350" c.i. with a mild cam
Did you take auto mechanic's in school ? Do you have the tools to do the job ? Do you have help ?

Please keep us updated on your progress + updated pic's are always a plus on the MCF...(We all love pic's of Monte's)
We have several helpful member's here, so don't be afraid to post & ask questions..

Wish you good luck on getting your Monte the way you want it to `be...Will be looking forward to your updates

You'll be a lot happier with the 350.
