    If you're under 400hp (stock ls pretty much), just redoing the suspension with adding factory type bracing, rebuilding the brakes with stock stuff, and adding a good performance shock with stock Grand national or monte SS spec springs is perfectly fine. I've done all that to my car and I get pretty hairy with it and it's always been a great driver.

    Awesome man. Back in the say peolle thought those smog choked 305 chevy v8 were the shit. I had a 87 307 olds in my 1979 cutlass with a ported 4brl. Not a powerhouse but a daily driver. An ls swap will make a monte ss the car gm could have built.

    Adding hp and most likely bigger wheels, you definitely need to upgrade the brakes. Seen so many vehicles with good looking interior and a nice engine but still have 30 yr old brakes 😂

    • @untamablewolf
      @untamablewolf หลายเดือนก่อน

      Im just now reading a learning but I believe that the difference between a 60 and a 65 is just the weight rating for the car that that transmission came attached to. the 65 would be stronger since it came with heavier cars

    You can also go cheaper than that by going to the junkyard pulling out some disc brakes off of a 1995 Trailblazer which is direct bolt on all the way I'm running Wildwood if I'm going 6 Pistons other than that give me some of the 1995 Trailblazer

    Do Not Buy a Tahoe or Yukon or any of the pickups as a donor vehicle if its been Carolina squatted. The engine may be damaged from oil starvation, due to the squat.
