    Cross member help

    I bought a jegs double hump transmission crossmember for my 78 malibu wagon with a th350. My bolt holes are coming up a half inch short. Called jegs tech and we're thinking it's the same frame as an El Camino. DOES anyone know what cross member I'm supposed to run?

    need info on ls swap parts

    Thanks for the fuel system tips. Wasn't sure how I was going to go about that since I'm going to carbonate my engine. The rear end in the car right now is the stock 7.5 but I'm leaning towards an 8.8 swap when I go through the rear suspension

    I can get my wrench on the back top bolts of the mounts through the whole but not the front ones. opening them up sounds like a good idea.
