Hello I am new to the forum.. I have a 1988 Monte Carlo SS thatI have updated and it looks great.

1)GM performance crate motor-350 with Edelbrock performer intake, holley 600 carb. I also have a freshly rebuilt holley 750 double
pumper. About 4000 miles on the new motor.
2)Hooker comp long tube headers with flowmaster exhaust and polished tail pipes.
3)Late model 700-r4 transmisson with 373's in the rear.
4)American racing torque thrust II's wrapped in Firestone tires.
5)New KYB shocks all around.
6)Maroon interior with New year one dash cover, CD player and speakers.
7)Fresh black paint and all new weatherstripping.

Any other Monte owners with similar year cars?

 

Hi Petey88ss [sm=welcomesign.gif]

Welcome to the forum. We have a lot of members with your generation Monte Carlo. Your generation Monte is one of my favorites. Lookin at what you've done with the car, I'd have to quote Tim Allen: "R-R-R"

 

Thanks... Lets see if I can post some pics..

You'll have to change the capital letters [IMG] to small letters [img] [/img].

Edit: It works now. Nice pics!

 

Nice black Monte Carlo! Welcome Peter from Queens to the Monte Carlo Forum. Yes, there are LOTS of 80's Montes here. Make sure you check out the search engine if you have any quick questions. Lots of good posts there.
Again, Welcome

 

Hi, great car.

If it's a daily driver, keep the 600, it is very easy to tune.

If it is not a daily, put the freakin double pumper on it.

 

Its not a daily driver for me.. More of a weekend cruiser. I had the 750 on but it needed to be rebuilt and I have not put it back on yet. Was an animal off the line with the 750 and more of a cruiser with the 600..

Hmmmm what to do??

 

What do you want from your car????

 

I built the car as a cruiser. I was out of the muscle car game for a few years until I came upon this SS. I wanted a car that I can go to car shows with and cruise around in when the weathers nice. It may see the occasional track time. But thats yet to happen.

 

If you are willing to modify the hood for some kind of scoop or air flow input, the double pumper would rock with a high rise manifold.

Just a thought.
