I'm new here... had this set-up in a 95 Roadmaster... now going to find its way into my 72 skylark. engine:385cid, 4.30 diamond domes, eagle 4340 3.75 crank/H-beam, 58mm TB, 1.6 RR, beehives, 150 shot, AFR 220 LT4, LE2 cam, PCM4LESS.com tune, SVO #37 injectors, 6AL, MSD Optispark, magnacoil, Taylor Wires, NGK TR6's, Transmission: T56 6 speed, zoom paddle clutch, steel forks, Carbon Fiber syncros Rear Diff: 8.5" 10 bolt, rear disc breaks, 28 spline axles, stage II carrier, 3.73, Eaton posi (out of 95 9C1 Caprice)
As your signature line states: "It's not a Chevelle", but you will basically have to use Chevelle parts (motor mounts, headers, etc.) to put that combo into a Skylark. Should be an easy swap. Bill
that's what i figured. Are Buick SB lower engine mounts (frame to rubber mount) the same as Chevy SB?
Nope, you'll need 67-72 A-body spindles. You can also get them from a 1st generation F-body or 2nd Generation X-body. Bill
Some B-bodies (like that 9C1 car) have spindles that work with 12" rotors. That would be an ideal setup. Add some Camaro 1LE 12" rotors (to retain the 5x4.75" bolt pattern) and some shorter upper control arms - like the Global West units.
I have 94 and 95 9c1 spindles.... that covers both size ball joints. Any Idea which size I would use?
that would be ideal... Cause I'd have all the parts in my shed! Even freshly turned rotors and rebuilt calipers. I'd Probably just leave it 5x5 bolt pattern so I wouldn't need rear axles. Thanks for the idea
