Hey Jaun, I think it's a G-body thing myself,although the ones I've noticed including mine all have more clearence on the driver that is it appears the rear end is closer to the passenger side,I've got a Moser 9", Edelbrock adjustable upper arms and Southside Machine lowers and it appears...

Check out Malibu Racing Father/Son project in the general catagory on this site,it's that very project and it may give you some insight as to what it takes to get it done,Later,KillerDave

Hey Doug, That's a bummer when people don't do as instructed especially with ones hard earned cash! I never considered warranties on rebuilds and machine work as long as I was comfortable with who was doing it, actually I've never had anyone assemble an engine for me always done it...

Yea the springs are OK for an inch but if you want to go lower spindles are the best way to go so you don't mess with the suspension geometry which affects your handling,I don't know about the 15X8's on the front though,especially lowered,I had a 79,stock front suspension,had 15X7 chevy ralley...

It must be differences in wheel offsets as I have 15X6 w 3" backspace and 2" drop spindles on mine and don't have any clearance issues at all,while you're in there don't forget some HD shocks and if yours is like everyone elses (that hasn't been rebuilt already) the springs could probably stand...

I've always used brazing rod,two opposing 1/4" tacks,never lost one after that!

Well it would appear that about everyone is guilty of beating a balancer on an engine at one time or another,yours truly included,several times actually and I never had any failures,deffinatly the correct method is a balancer installation tool,I've owned a Snap-On for a long time now,the...

Hey BigDogg, Well I havn't used one yet but plan to unite one with my Muncie M-21 one of these days,I've done a lot of research and am pretty much sold as it will be the best way for me to have a good gear for out of the hole plus a good cruising speed/RPM on the highway and still be able...

Hey Guys, If I'm not mistaken MeatDrapes said that Sanderson has a set of headers that will work with a Big Block and mechanical clutch linkage, convert to hydraulic and you should be able to run most of the others, I've always liked mechanical linkages but I have a 92 Chev pick up and a...

Mine is before the prop valve as It was easier to do that way,as far as I can tell it doesn't lock up the back brakes as I was doing some line lock testing (burnoffs) In my driveway the other day and that seemed to work ok,the only weird thing that it does is make the brake warning light come on...

Hey Doober, Yep pretty much a Hurst shifter is a Hurst shifter,basically the only difference I've ever found is the handle between OEM or aftermarket performance, of course different brackets and linkages for different applications,come to think of it I have had a couple Competition Plus'...

Yea very pricy but I think looks very cool,about 10 times cooler than the blank the guy from Canada was sellin on this site about three or four years ago,may consider one for the next project I have in mind,of course I'd like to see one up close before I bought one,but from my experience cool...

Are we talking a stock replacement style racing bumper? If so you have to figure out what you want and fabricate it yourself or have someone do it for you,I can't remember where I saw it on this sight but I think the caption had to do with weight reduction,the feller had a hot race car and was...

Hey Guys, I thought it was the 15015 for i think the 82/83 camaro with mechanical linkage,it also has a dual bolt pattern,Muncie/Super T10 and the tilted pattern for the Camaro T5,I was planning on getting one of these sometime before I start making any real power as I've seen what can...

Hey Guys, Yea I think I have the same issue,I bought a rear end used out of the local trader represented as a Moser complete with big drum brakes for like $800.00 a couple years ago,felt it was a pretty good deal other than it had a spool and 456's in it that I would have to change due to...

Well that was interesting! Supplier wars? You guys ain't hungry are ya? I can't blame you for advertising but it's like you all swarmed that one, Good Luck! And may the best company win!!!! KillerDave

Hey killer406, I don't mean to Hijack the thread but have meant to get back with you since I saw the bucket seat thread,I always figured 3rd gen parts would work on a Bu with slight mods,GM isn't stupid about mass production!! You confirmed it for me though,thank you very much! I just...

Hey, Just to throw my 2cents in I think StreetBu has the answer,check your master cylinder bore size,sounds trivial but it makes a big difference! I've had many vehicles with manual brakes and never had a problem stopping them and a Malibu isn't any different,you have something there mismatched...

Hey Lemans, Are we talking about thr Firebird Weels? I can't imagine an issue of them not fitting your car,must be something really stupid going on there! Like bigbad said send some pics,someone will figure it out! Later,KillerDave

Hi There, I'm guessing you have your pinion angle set right? 3 degrees down from the driveshaft? I have ssm bars myself and I'm thinking they're a little longer than a stock control arm,like 1/2" or so but that should work to your advantage,let's step back a minute,I'm guessing the springs...
