New From New England
Hello, I've got an 85 Monte SS that I have installed an LS6 crate engine and 4l60e trans. I have had the car since 87 when it was stock and SLOW!!! The body is stock except for paint, and the interior has been redone also. The suspension is all done over,(handles like a Vette).

Thanks! Unfortunately I suck at posting pics. The only pics I have at the moment are in my cardomain site, and that hasn't been updated for awhile.

Thanks! The car has been painted that color since 2000. The color made that car! It totally changed it the way it looked before.

what you have done to the suspension? what kind of shifter you have? ...maybe start a project-thread and tell us what you've done to the car

Thanks everybody. I pretty much suck at posting pics. lol
The suspension is Hotchkis tubular upper ca's with 12" Front brakes, B-body spindles and calipers and master cylinder, EBC brake pads and stainless steel brake lines. Rear brakes still have drums. The car needs rear discs but don"t have the $$ yet.
The rear is also Hotckis with adjustable upper arms. It has Eibach springs all around. It also has Energy Suspension body bushings. I have Edelbrock shocks in the front and QA1's in the rear( wheelhop snapped the Edelbrock). The swaybar's are Hellwig front + rear sized 1 5/16" front and 1" rear.
Rims are 17" x 8" all around Centerline Matrix 911 series. Tires are sized 245/45r 17 front and 255/45r 17 rear.1985 Monte Carlo SS 2004 Corvette LS6, 4l60e trans, 9" rearend. 375/345 rwhp, Slowhawk Tuned 3710lbs [email protected]
