HOPE THE TITLE GOT MOST OF YOU TO READ THIS :haha:

anyway the name is matt im from Houston Tx and I own a 2004 chevy malibu classic

i see a couple of you guys on here have a L61 and thats wat peaked my interest mainly cause i set out to build myself a turbocharged L61 malibu and at the same time most of the parts are not just straight bolt on mostly everything i have seen for me to use is straight custom or universal (which doesn't always work) anyway more about my ride

here my list of mod so far:
Cosmo Racing SRI System
Vibrant Front STB
KYB All the way around w/ AG Springs 1.5"
CA Underdrive light-weight Crank pulley
TorqFlo Trans cooler
Full A/C Delete
Ploy stab & Frame bushing


mod on the way (the next week or two)
installing colder plugs
tuning by trifecta
swaping intake manifold from 2.2 to 2.4
install my 17" DR-8's

Future mods:
Too many to list

JUST Two for now till i install my wheels


ALSO IF EVERYONE THAT STOP BY TO CHECK OUT MY THREAD PLZ ANSWER TO POLL, IM LOOKING INTO SOMETHING FOR THE N-BODY L61 :)

I love those rims and they will look sweet on a white car :D

Building up a L61 is pretty easy, you just have to know where to look. The stock bottom end has been known to take upto 1000 hp :eek:

I have the 3400 motor ;)

Welcome!!! Loose the wire loom please.....

Redog what you mean by stock bottem end???I think you are way off on this one.

Welcome to the forum, post more pics of your ride. You are not alone when trying to find parts for the n-body, we cant even get mounts without being custom, but there is still plenty of stuff that we can use from another platform when is engine related but im sure you already know about that... I think I saw your post on EF.com if im not mistaking.

Race preparation basically involves just two modifications — switching to stainless steel cylinder liners and the use of aftermarket main and head studs.

Both of those are no big deal......
