Love your car I have a 88 SS I hope mine ends up as nice I have a brand new big block 427 but I think I'm going to put a blueprint 400 power adder engine in it. Your car looks great.
No I still have the 427 in my car it only has about 20 miles on it . I do have a 406 and a 421 I. Going to get together and put one of them in it looking for a tri 5 for the big block I want to build a gasser
I only run race gas when I’m spraying. Otherwise I just run 93 on the motor... the race gas is 110 Sunoco unleaded do not use leaded gas. The race gas comes in a 5 gallon metal container they don’t have it at the pump.
Damn. Running a 100 shot on their hyper-crack pistons. You got balls my friend, keep us posted on how many pulls on 100 it takes before it lets go. Im very curious myself if itll hold up longterm.
I love the car man very well done. i would like to replicate the tire/wheel setup on my 84 grand prix. would you mind telling me the tire/wheel size for the front? i absolutely love the ssr stars but they turned me off in every pic of the front. they look waaaaay better with a lip though
Just going off my ride, which has a similar look, the rears appear to be 275/60/15 ( also 28x10.8R15 slick tire for track which is the same size) and the front skinnies look like Mickey Thompson ET front runners 28x4.5R15's or 28x7.5R15's. Hope that helps.Good luck. And the Weld racing pro stars have a deeper lip. Just fyi.👍
I don’t have to worry about a malfunctioning electric fan or temp sensor to turn the fan on. I like to keep it simple and no worries, And I didn’t feel like flipping a switch LOL
@@mikesmonte3682 I definitely understand that lol. I installed one on my s10. It’s not too bad. I used a 3 way switch just in case the temp sensor fails.
Yeah I talk to blueprint engines before I did anything they do not recommend boost or nitrous. So obviously I just waited until the three-year warranty was up. But at the moment I’m running a 100 wet shot but I backed the timing off 6° and run race fuel and it’s been fine
I have a built Turbo 400 behind mine.... used to have the 200-4r... He definitely launches slower with the turbo 350 or turbo 400 trans.But I have yet to launch it on the spray with the new trans and converter. Are used to do a 1.52 60 foot with the overdrive trans.... Now, on motor only it does 1.70 60ft. What about yours
They are just the cheapest set of hooker header long tubes for the g-body from summit. I don’t remember the part number bought them new about 11 years ago
Maybe I missed it , what gears in back ? Thinking of doing the same engine with spray to my caddy and want to gear with 5.13’s to quickly get it by moving , don’t care about going faster then 120.. light to light car
I have heard nothing but good regarding BluePrint engines.
I agree. Just put one in the vet :)
@@paulb4241 ;Which one did you go with.
Did u look because everything i read they where very good so i bought a 383 stroker couldn't be happier @waynetessier3058
From the front to the rear, CLEAN! I can tell you have put a lot of time and money into the car and it's paid off big time. Nice job!
Man I love the setup of your car nice man l must have watched your video a dozen times 👍

Nice monte carlo!
What is the backspace on the rear wheels. Did you have to notch your frame. Have a nice setup 👌
Want to say it was 4.5 backspacing. No frame notch .. thanks
@@mikesmonte3682 wow no frame notch? I love your SS can you do a vid on your wheels only showing and explaining I'm new at this trying to learn
I have an 86ss frame notch and still cant run a 5.5 bk spaceing 15 ×8 wheel
So ure running a 4and half bk space 15×10
@@paulpowell195 I’m almost positive that has 4 1/2 backspacing. But yea it’s a 15 x 10. Fits perfect no spacers no notching nothing
😍😍😍
Car looks great!!!!!What is the part number on the header?
At first glance I thought it was a foxbody from the thumbnail.
Love it

Did you really give up a Big block 427 for a small block 400?
@@demarques1911 did you notch your frame ? And what is the back space on your back rims? Thanks

Nice
Beautiful,,,I've got the exact same car,,I'm dropping in a 500 horse plus small block this summer,,,what gear r u running,?
Just finished doing that it mine. Runs amazing🤙🏽
@@gmmcss3817 I'm about to do that in mine as well in a few weeks🤣
@@f250ford1975 nice lmao
What size tire on the front ?
15x10 rears? Any frame notch?
Your running race gas. A gas station near me has 110 octane I didn’t know if I should get it because it might harm the motor
I only run race gas when I’m spraying. Otherwise I just run 93 on the motor... the race gas is 110 Sunoco unleaded do not use leaded gas. The race gas comes in a 5 gallon metal container they don’t have it at the pump.
No such thing as too much octane. Can have too little, though.
Gotcha They dynod this motor on 91 octane wonder if it makes more with 93 octane
Mine has as 383 built by me it’s 3850 with me in I have a regal full interior air conditioning and all power seats
Awesome 👍🏻
@@mikesmonte3682 won’t say a number cuz of the people I have to run but it runs a good good number

Thays a nice steering wheel. What steering wheel is that?
Nice build. I love gbody cars. One question though. Why didn’t you go with electric fans?
I don’t have to worry about a malfunctioning electric fan or temp sensor to turn the fan on. I like to keep it simple and no worries, And I didn’t feel like flipping a switch LOL
@@mikesmonte3682 I definitely understand that lol. I installed one on my s10. It’s not too bad. I used a 3 way switch just in case the temp sensor fails.
I have this motor it’s not built for boost tho they said how does that nitrous work out?
Yeah I talk to blueprint engines before I did anything they do not recommend boost or nitrous. So obviously I just waited until the three-year warranty was up. But at the moment I’m running a 100 wet shot but I backed the timing off 6° and run race fuel and it’s been fine
What does this motor make on dyno to the wheels without the spray ?
It’s only been on an engine Dyno not a chassis Dyno. It should make about 380-385 at the tire on motor
I have a turbo 350 bolted to this motor I feel like it doesn’t launch with the automatic how do you feel?
I have a built Turbo 400 behind mine.... used to have the 200-4r... He definitely launches slower with the turbo 350 or turbo 400 trans.But I have yet to launch it on the spray with the new trans and converter. Are used to do a 1.52 60 foot with the overdrive trans.... Now, on motor only it does 1.70 60ft. What about yours
So stock it runs 12.0 in the 1/4 mile?
Yes in the heat and bad air. Should do 11.8 on motor w good da
What’s the actual tires size for your front tires on the 15x4’s
Do you happen to know the lip size/offset of the rear wheels?
can you tell me the model number of them headers I need a pair for my 86
They are just the cheapest set of hooker header long tubes for the g-body from summit. I don’t remember the part number bought them new about 11 years ago
Is that the factory rearend or #id you upgrade to a 9 inch.
You running the 1/4
Maybe I missed it , what gears in back ? Thinking of doing the same engine with spray to my caddy and want to gear with 5.13’s to quickly get it by moving , don’t care about going faster then 120.. light to light car
4.10’s w. 28 inch tire. Turbo400 tops out at 125 at 6k rpm approx
Did you notch the rear frame for the tire
I did not
Oh ok so don’t use the Sunoco 110 gas? What about cam 2 gas that comes in the barrel
You
Can run race fuel when spraying... If you’re just on motor there’s no point as 93 octane is plenty sufficient for 10 to 1 383
Nnice car did you have to notch the frame in the rear to fit those tires?
Thanks... nope no frame notch. Rears are 15x10
Thank you Mike is that a 4 inch offset rear rim or 41/2 in offset
