1984 Monte Carlo SS Supercharged 350

This is a 1984 Monte Carlo SS with a supercharged 350 capable of 1000+ horsepower! The car has a fiberglass 6 in. cowl hood. I changed the interior from the original blue to black. The seats were re-covered in the original type material. The dash was covered with a black factory style dash cover. It looks just like the original except for the color. The front suspension was rebuilt with new polyurethane bushings and new springs. I have a set of 2in. drop spindles for it, but it drives so good that I decided not to put them on. The engine is an aftermarket GM block. It has a Callies rotating assembly with forged blower pistons. The heads are dart pro 1's. The supercharger is a Weiand 6-71 topped with 2 Holley 750 vacuum secondary blower carbs. It has a boost referenced MSD programmable distributer. The distributer comes with a cable to hook to a laptop and the software to tune it with. The supercharger is set at 12% underdriven. On the 12% underdriven street tune it was dynoed at 500hp. With the supercharger pulleys swapped around to the race tune it made 1100hp on 12% overdriven. Swapping the pulleys around requires the use of race fuel, re-jetting the carbs, and lowering the timing. On the street tune you can fill it up with 87 octane and drive it anywhere without any sign of problems. The transmission is a built turbo 350 with a 5000 stall converter. It has a set of BFG T/A drag radials on the back pushed by a set of 308 gears. This old Monte is a surprisingly good street car with plenty of get up and go when you want it.

You read the good, now for the minor defects. The headliner is sagging some. The speedometer recently quit working. I believe it is a speedometer cable. The cable is an easy fix on this car, I just have not had the time to do it. The paint is fresh but was never wet sanded and buffed. It was never a big enough concern to me. The car looks great like it is, but if you want an absolutely show quality car it would need to be color sanded and buffed. The air-conditioner compressor and condenser are in the trunk of the car. It doesn't have a radio. Who needs a radio when you have the whine of a blower to sing to you! Other than those few things the car is AMAZING. It rides and drives like a new car.

The engine in this car cost over $16,000. I have the reserve set at $10,000 . I just have too many cars and I need to get rid of a couple of them. This car is the lowest on the totem pole for me, so here it is for sale.

If you have any questions please e-mail me at rod_bender65@yahoo.com or call me at 1-662-862-2425. If you have 0 or negative feedback contact me before you bid. If you do not your bid will be canceled. I reserve the right to end the auction at any time. Thanks for looking, John.

GM recalls Chevy Express, GMC Savana over rollaway concern

Mon, 21 Jan 2013

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued a recall notice for a small number of General Motors fullsize vans due to possible rollaway concerns. On certain 2013 Chevrolet Express and 2013 GMC Savana models, it is possible to remove the key from the ignition without the shifter being in park.
Only 980 total units are being affected by this recall, and GM is fixing the issue by replacing the ignition cylinder and associated keys. Affected Chevy vans were built during most of November and December while its GMC counterpart was only built for a week in November. The recall goes into effect on January 23, and to find out if your vehicle applies to the recall, the GM and NHTSA contact numbers can be found on the official recall notice, which is posted below.

New Chevrolet Silverado to be revealed on Facebook on Thursday

Tue, 11 Dec 2012

There's not much to see here, but if you're one of those waiting for the reveal of the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, above is the teaser image that Chevrolet posted on its Facebook page. We've seen the truck in form-fitting camo before, and even less can be made out here beyond those seriously punchy Silverado-esque fenders and the knowledge that the projector-beam headlamps teased previously do indeed work. We'll have to wait until Thursday for a full perusal of the "bold exterior design" and "careful attention given to every detail" we've been promised.
Gathering intel and rumors, magnesium and aluminum contribute to the Silverado's weight loss plan, the purported "High Country" top-tier trim will contribute to luxury pickup truck competition and profit margins and the next-generation small-block V8 will contribute to improved fuel economy. On the engine note, there have been rumors of available V6 engines, and when Facebook user John Jones asked "Where's your answer to that EcoBoost Chevy?", the Bowtie replied "stay tuned on the 13th. We think you'll be pleased...".
Along with the "Raise the Bar" tag, Chevrolet says of the Silverado, "You asked, we delivered." You can watch the reveal live on Chevrolet's Facebook page at 9:30 am EST, this Thursday, December 13. The GMC Sierra 1500 will also be there, and we'll see both in person at the Detroit Auto Show in January.

Recharge Wrap-up: BYD unveils 60-ft electric bus, Honda sticking with hybrids in Europe

Thu, Oct 16 2014

BYD has debuted a 60-foot electric bus at the American Public Transportation Association Expo in Houston, TX. The Lancaster bus, as it is called, has a 120-passenger capacity and can drive over 170 miles on a single charge. The articulated bus features low floors and no steps, thanks to in-wheel hub motors. BYD also displayed a 40-foot electric bus that drove the 1,500 miles to the show under its own power (recharging along the way, of course). Read more in the press release below. Honda says it will continue to sell hybrids in Europe, despite the fact that it has stopped selling the CR-Z and Insight due to slow sales. "Our focus at the moment is on our 1.6-liter diesel but we haven't forgotten about hybrid technology," says Honda Europe's Philip Ross. Honda will sell the next-generation Fit (badged as the Jazz) in Europe when it launches next summer, and will sell the next-gen hybrid version beginning in 2016. Honda sold 4,500 of the Jazz hybrid in Europe last year. Read more at Automotive News. XL Hybrids is selling its XL3 Hybrid Electric Drive System in California. The news comes after the California Air Resources Board issued an executive order allowing the aftermarket hybrid conversion for 2012-2014 Chevrolet Express and GMC Savana vans. The XL3 Hybrid regenerative braking conversion increases real-world mpg by about 25 percent. Read more in the press release below. NRG eVgo has finished installing 60 charging stations at the Sony Pictures Entertainment studio lot and offices in Culver City, California. The Level 2 chargers, which will be managed by NRG eVgo, allow employees to charge their EVs during the workday. An average of 90 EVs and PHEVs park at the studio headquarters every day, thanks in part to Sony Pictures' Alternative Vehicles Incentive program for its employees. Learn more in the press release below. Pennsylvania's Public Utility Commission will allow operators of EV charging stations to set prices based on kilowatt hour usage. This change ensures that drivers pay for the actual energy they use, rather than the time they spend charging, since different cars can charge at different speeds. Car Charging Group has already begun using the per-kWh fee structure at its charging stations throughout the state. Other states that allow kWh pricing are California, Colorado, Florida, Hawaii, Illinois, Maryland, Minnesota, New York, Oregon, Virginia and Washington. Read more in the press release below.
