- Getting the fuel system done so we can finally drive the Monza. Next we will be installing the new drag brakes and free-flowing exhaust so we can make this thing actually fast.

I see you've got nothing but Chevys in front of your house. I can appreciate that. Good on you for staying true to the bowtie.
Ahhhh the ultra rare 350 California version., NICE!
Actually that Monza is a good looking car it will make a unique ride with the right mods.
CHECK OUT MINE

I agree.
I think the Monza is a really great-looking car. Underrated on styling.
My buddy in high school had a Monza in 1985. I believe his was a 1976?
Man, we must’ve smoked 20lbs. of weed in that car.
In the winter, we’d park at the mall and fog up all the windows with our breath. Then we’d smoke, drink, and jam the radio for hours.
Nice car !! I had a 1977 Monza Mirage. I pulled the 305 out and installed a 350 4 bolt mains, 2.02 heads, 10-1 pistons. It would just sizzle those little 13" tires, Lol
Great to see the old Monza running! Way to go Travis!
Had a "75 in the late "70s. Punched out 350 being fed by 780 Holley on a Edelbrock Tarantula manifold and out the headers!...All the local big-block, and 4 speed owners would chuckle at the starting line and cry at the finish line! 2.02 heads and stock 13" rubber never had so much fun...
HAHA! Chuckle At The Starting Line, CRY At The Finish Line, I Like That.
A front and rear spoiler would make it look a lot sportier!
I had one of those way back when… mine was a rusty turd, but this one looks amazing.
travis ypu are the man love the car very rare in va lots of rust had more snow in 70s really cool car here from bedford va
Hope you keep this Monza indefinitely!!!! A gem!!! 🔥🔥🔥
Damn Alec, those legs go all the way up?
Corner lots are the best, one less next door neighbor and all that extra parking on the side. Even though I'd prefer acres or miles separating me and the neighbors.
That was a sweet burnout!!
That is super awesome 👌 even though it is minus the LS 😆 thanks for sharing ☮️ oh and weld the dif two wheel peels are better 😅
Next stop, straight line to Red Line!
Tach has been stuck at 7k since I got it lol
I had a 75 Monza came with a 262 and a 4spd, I put a 350 in mine
I had a 1977, Chevrolet 400 c.i. Small block, one smoke show and id have to change the tire.
Cool Videos. Love the Chevy Monza. Love to have one with my 95 Lt1 in there with a Posi Rear
Wait you guys deserve about a 100,000 subscribers! It's going to happen! Great video! Btw I live in crappy rust belt and I can't get any of those nice clean cars here! Oh man sooo jealous lol
I wouldn’t mind having a monza spider👍🏼
I bet a shiny quarter Alec gets his windshield cleaned up right with newspaper long before Jessie...
He has the arm length to get it done.
Gonna call me out like that? I see how it is. 😆
@@travisblack417 From outside the car
That whole interior needs a hard scrub. I know it's bad but it feels worse every time I see it
@@alecweinstein4990 paint it black and (don’t) put it back
I had a 75 2+2 with a 262 V8 and a 4 speed. Surprised a lot of cars. They were light in the ass and would get around on you, front suspension is weak also . They had a spyder edition and a Mirage model. Fun college car with 20+ mpg.
Nice this cars going to rock
You know on the end of the air injection line where the rubber hose hooks up is a check valve a vacuum cap would actually seal it off as long as it didn't melt. the only reason you need to do that is to keep it from sucking air in at deceleration. Did you put an o-ring on that sending unit I'm guessing you did it just didn't show on the video. put bigger squirters in the carburetor it should be more responsive than that. And the distributor advanced way too much. Mad respect for using that Westside Birmingham ignition key. Hook the vacuum advance up make sure the actuators working it will make a big difference
That check valve wasn’t functional, plus I wanted to delete as much of the air tube as possible. The sender o-ring was replaced as well.
That's probably a more reliable car than these new cars .
Well Travis. It may be best just to show the young lady here alot more.
my first car was a 77 monza notchback,...305,.it would fry the tire,...with no powerbraking, they did not handle good over 65,.......
18:16 🔥👍
Travis do service swimming pools also? I could see the pool pole in the back of the truck.
Nice car.
7:21--"FUEELLL!!!!"
Back in the late 70's I had a Buick Skyhawk same set up as the Monza With the V6 and automatic floor shifter...The Skyhawk will do easy 135mph...No kidding...I had a buddy who stuffed a 350 in a Monza and he was drag racing it...
Buick Skyhawk Is 231 V6 Only.
A tip I kept a Bottle opener in my consul to pry open the hood Then I went to just pins and put a small web strap on it to open looks HOOPTIE as hell but IM HOOPTIE
A kid I went to school with put a 350 in his monza and twisted it and broke the window
Such a beautiful little car! A shame Chevy dropped it.
They technically didn’t. The 3rd and 4th gen camaro is an evolution of this thing.
Jessica, you're so fine !!
Travis, great work with the Monza. Just wondering, what happened to the gal that you used to do the videos with? She seemed very knowledgeable as well. Looking forward to seeing how you tackle the Sanderson Headers. I just put a set of them on my V8 Monza Spyder a couple months ago. It can be a little tricky, but you have 'mad' skills when it comes to working on vehicles, much respect!
I was kicked out
@@travisblack417 That sucks! Literally kicked out? Sorry to hear that. Hope things are better now.
@@guitarsnguns kicked off the channel.
Is that a factory 350 because my dad and I had a75 with the 262 v8 4.3 ran really well after we done some work on it
Yes one of 3300. California 1975 models came with a 350 instead of the 262
is there any content on this mustang ii you mentioned in the video? I'm not sure who this other guy is or if he has a channel!
If the link doesn't post, google "barnfinds Museum Piece: 1974 Ford Mustang II"
Sounds like the timing might be too far advanced by the startup. I thought you couldn’t do anything to post 1974 cars in CA because of emissions
She likes the timing. Also 1976+ is the cutoff you’re thinking of. This car is significant due to the fact that it’s the only smog exempt monza year for CA.
@@travisblack417 that’s good, I thought was thinking GM started with Catalytic Converters on all cars in 1974, and that’s what CA went by. Glad to see it driving again
@@xozindustries7451 75 was cats
Now that you've removed all the smog off the Monza how do you propose on smogging that car in California?
It’s a 1975. It’s exempt.
anybody ever real exact number of how much those 350 BF Goodwrench engines made? some data says 195 but when I bought mine the guy I got it from told me it was 290!
190 is with stock exhaust/intake manifolds and a 2 barrel, 260 is with headers, aluminum intake, and a 4 barrel. The “290 deluxe” is the same motor as a goodwrench but with a 222°/222° cam.
@@travisblack417 cool thanks I guess that clears things up a little bit not really actually makes it more confusing but I appreciate either way
@@rustybritches6747 how? I couldn’t have answered your question more clearly.
Well now we have her name, instead of just “the wife.” There’s a reason most You Tubers demand silent camera people.
Lol
Travis am I correct this is not your car?
First thing I would do is DUMP the power Brakes
I used to not throw shit away now I got 3 BIG BARNS OF SHIT I CANT REMEMBER WHAT I HAVE LOL
I bet if you look there is a ABANDONED return line on the right side under the manifold
That is BATSHITcrazy where the ALT is located
HOLY CRAP BATMAN I got 342 gears and cut the weight down to 2400 Pounds that one was 3200 pounds without that 350 in it
The Monza looks to hard to steer. Put the power steering belt on or get a non power box. I can tell Alec was struggling.
I'm a weakling, but this should change that lol. Last non-PS car was a 4cyl Mustang II and I could crank that wheel at a stop, but that was several hundred pounds lighter in the nose so I underestimated the Monza. The floppy column didn't help either
With the steering wheel flopping all around you lose all leverage. It will get a proper manual box soon enough, along with a repaired steering column.
@@alecweinstein4990 best thing you can do for a manual steering car is buy a good set of tires.
Sadly from 2030 on all combustion cars, trucks and busses including classics will be banned from public streets in entire EU and Scandinavia :-( In Germany the Green Peoples Party gave order to shorten fuel supply from 2025 on by reducing petrol stations to only one state operated central gas station per city. From 2027 on in the EU certain car spare parts will be banned too....as exhaust systems, turbo chargers and even some engine and gearbox oils...California and New York will do the same from 2027 on.... So no investments should be done in oil burning cars any longer....They even created a new kind of crime here, called emissions and smoke crime.
California will be doing all electrical cars by 2030 they said, so no more gas powered cars in California. Soon all these cars will be extinct. All the Mechanics will only be going to school for electric car repairs and brakes etc.
Hello, where can i contact you about the product sponsorship?
