V8 Monza
My ride is a 1976 Chevy Monza 2+2. The original V8 was replaced with supercharged SBC. It needs paint and bodywork as well as some dial in time on the dyno. Looks OK I guess, most look past the rough paint and body and focus on the blower sticking out of the hood. I work on it when I can and am slowly making upgrades to the suspension to get it to hook without breaking something (I usually break something or get too hot). The small engine compartment doesn't really allow enough air flow to satisfactorily keep it cool even with a 600 HP rated Griffin radiator. It has a 400HP NOS kit, but the drivetrain and body have a ways to go before they can handle the extra HP. Besides, subframe connectors and a roll cage are in-work and a must for this project to hook up.

If you want to see the car there's a video on youtube at...

Wow...sounds like a nice car. I've seen a few Monza and Vega V8's however unboosted.
That spammer should GTFO. Burn down his server and Ethernet connection too.

Here's what my 1977 2+2 looked like before I sent it to the crusher...............it's an original dealer promo that I modified exactly to my cars' specs(except for the missing glass).
