Just wanted to stop by and say HI. I just bought a 97 LS. It has the 3100 in it, but i'm not looking to win any races with it, so its perfect. I've kustomized just about every thing that i have driven, some for performance, some for looks, but always in the name of fun. So to say that i have the mod bug is an understatement . Can't wait to sink my teeth into it.

Well, thats it for now. I will wait till the freezing rain and ice let up so i can detail it and take pics.

Peace out.

Welcome. Subscribed for pics.

 

Welcome JJ!
Congrats on your 97. I had good luck with the 3100 engine in one of my previous cars. We're getting quite a few fifth generation Monte Carlos here.

We got freezing rain all day here too. (let's just say the metro Detroit area.......it's easier that way).

 

congrats, now if i were you id throw that 3100 in the garbage and upgrade. thats what came in my 97ls and it was horrible. it has a real bad problem with blowing head and lower intake gaskets. i suggest a swap to the supercharged 3800, you will absoluty love it with a passion

 

welcome to mcf! while ur swappin out the engine just go with the 5.3 lol have fun moddin the car! let us know what ur up to
