For 1984-1988 Monte's the 8th digit has to be a "G".

Oh yeah. Just have to buy a rebuild kit for the carburetor. So it can be right then move down to the transmission because the gear line or so wasnt hook up. The day i cranked it up, it started to haul ***. Luckily I had it lifted up. So right now I feel good about the car
