A chevy guy should respond that a 700R4 is better than an 200R4. It is true that the 700r is tougher than the factory built 200r. Every Monte Carlo guy who have a 200r4 (and who drag race their car) retrofit the TH350 or the 700R4 when they broke their tinny transmission. For sure, the little...

Wow your car looks very great. The TC is the coolest Century of that time imo! Im looking to get that look too! (but the NA way.) There is a couple of old Hot Rod magazine which talk of your car...which give tuning tips and bring down quarter miles times to 13.50 (with the help of NOS of...

Im looking to get new front rotors for my car. Its a 78 and it seems its a one year part. They are 10.5'' like every other G-body but Im wondering what is the technical differences of the rotor of 78 vs 79+.. Are they from the 77- generation? Are they thinner, thicker or is it just because they...

Yeah a lot of GM Cars use one wire alternators. All GMs I had in my life so... Cavalier, Firenza, Sunbird, '80 350 LeSabre, '89 307 Caddy, '82 Park Avenue and of course my 78 Century with a stock 63 amps unit... A One wire alternator simply means that it only requires one hot wire from the...

it depends on how much performance you're looking for with your 3.8. If you dont want to remove you EGR system, go with the 4.1 intake and a good not computer controled carb from any GM V8 from the end of 70s. You can take the aftermarket route:Weiand Intake (EGR works but it sit higher). With...

You have a good project my friend. Guys here are doin great times on the 1320' with that little engine here!:cool: Plz change that ugly chevy orange Fram filter, its too much restrictive. Go with with AC-Delco, Wix or Purolator and change it for the bigger PF-52 style filter (ac-delco part...

Beautiful project! I like the look of those cars !:cool: The web site I was talking about is maliburacing.com. As it's a G-Body (or A-Special in your case but its the same) I think you should take a look :P

Hi! Some guy have experienced the 295-50-R15 'back combo but I don't know the exact size of their wheels. I know 275-50R15 would fit on 15x8 back will fit with a 3.5in of back spacing. (to double check) I'm gonna double check that 'cause now I'm not at home. I'm gonna give you a web site...

not that new b4..., I've seen this product for 2-3 years I believe. :p but it should be interesting as there's a lot of application for the conversion from Pf-47 (or Pf-52) to PF-24. All the chevy 350, 4.3l use the pf-52, and the litle OHV 2.2 litre inline 4 use the Pf-47 (cavalier, sunfire...

They are offering 2 kind of adaptors, 1 for the oil cooler application (right pict. on rjc web site) and 1 for the non-oil cooler application (left pict) they say this adaptor will allow the use of the big filters on any car that uses the PF47 oil filter. I just wanted to know if someone have...

For sure we hope to see the car runnin' on the street. With that kind of gears you better run 30 mph and nail it for the fun factor ;)

After all,Are you planing to try a chassis dyno?

:biggrin: at least I'm gonna try to find a good one within my province as soon as there's no snow on the ground !! During that time I'm buying parts here & there. Do you have pics of your 2 79 CTC??

So nobody is bidding on this ''mint'' 79 Turbo coupe?:wink:

Yeah you're right. It's a 79! The 8th digit of the VIN in the 80s is a letter. A=1980,B=1981, C=1982... but in the 70s this digit is a number that represent the year. 8=1978 and of course 9=1979. Some people are confused by the grill that have the same design of the 78. But remember the CTC is...

No I don't have any spoiler as spare. (just one to put on my car) But keep my name and ask me in a couple months. I'm working on buying from a guy a lots of parts from a junk 79 Turbo coupe... and of course I don't need 2 spoilers. lol:wink:
