My car has been parked for pretty much 2 ½ - 3 years now du to vandalism and other crap that happened to me, you know it's called life...

I started to gather again some parts to upgrade my project for about a year now, but I left alomst all the internet forums except aleromod... So I guess that you can make more up to date research than I did...

First of july, I'll move to a new appartment with a garage!!! FINALLY I'LL BE ABLE TO START WORKING AGAIN ON IT!!!!!!
But I 'll go back soon to the 3800 boards because I just bought this for a effing super awesome deal from a friend of mine....

1200$!!!!! with the 20's and 255 tires, the engine is a l36 bottom end with the l67 topend I built it for him 3 years ago.. It has 3,4 pulley, 2 step colder plugs, 180* t-stat, u-bend delete, tuned on 91 and 94 octane, 4 inch fenderwell intake, audio system, strut bars, urethane motor mounts etc...
All I need to do is replace the fronts brakes...

I saw your car on youtbe with no exhaust. I am going to the junk yard to find a 2004 monte Carlo harness and transmission will I have to use a different tranny cooler? Are there any extra I could use off of a monte? How long did it take to get your car running right?
