Buddy list?

nah i wanna stay with a 305, the car will be cruiser/show only, racing wont be a concern.

[turbo96z28]

that was my original intention for the 86.

the torque curve on a well built 383 would make one hell of a weekend cruiser.

Thats what you say now, untill it makes 150 hp on the dyno

[V]

trust me, when the IROC is ready, too many people will be staring and not caring how much hp it has

[V]

and plus..my SS will have 700+hp... 79 vette with LT1....who cares about the iroc going fast

[turbo96z28]

well, when you put it that way....305 FTW

thats why im not going crazzy with engine swaps and all that we see i to eye. sorta... I wish my car was a t5. how much do you think a parts car 82-84 with t5 would cost?

[V]

just a t5 conversion kit is like 500. a T5 parts car always goes for quite a bit more than auto

[WayFast84]

DAMN!!!!!!! errrr!!! freaking rebuilt 700r4... yeah but with the parts car I can always grab the console and what not. plus I can sell or keep parts.

[V]

and 82-84 had different t5 setups

[turbo96z28]

stick with the 700R4.


get your el es Juan with a T56.

[V]

82-83 i believe were mechanical clutch, and 84-92 were hydraulic.

[V]

oh and the monte would get a tranny upgrade as well

see the problem is, not that I dont get the concept of a manual. but Id totally suck and be all slow and like roll down the hill 5 ft before actually moving foward..and then like when your just cruising not actually on the gas real hard how do you know when to shift? at least if I got a t5 i can learn next year when i get my permin

you'd probably be better off with a little car to learn on, like an old Cavalier or something.
