1984 - Chevrolet Monte Carlo on 2040-cars
Shinglehouse, Pennsylvania, United States
1984 Chevy Monte Carlo SS – PRO STREET. This BEAST is a complete frame off custom build which has been 10+ years in the making. The owner has invested over 100K in parts alone, not including the 100’s of labor hours that he spent on the build himself. The meticulous detail that went into this build is what really sets it apart from other “PRO STREET” cars out there today. All the receipts and literature for the installed parts and accessories are available and will be passed onto the buyer. The interior was completely reupholstered floor to ceiling with beautiful blue fabric. Even the rear seat was custom cut and re-installed which is typically not seen on a tubbed car. It has a “Dakota” digital dash that looks like it belongs there from the factory. It gives you a clear view of MPH, RPM’s, fuel percentage, and water temperature. The Hurst shifter is surrounded by a hand-made chromed aluminum console and has a custom made dual switch shift handle for line lock and over drive. The steering wheel is made by “Banjo” and is removable which is a good anti-theft feature.

The exterior white paint is flawless and boasts beautiful hand painted decals that really accent nicely the theme of the car. This Monte rides on polished aluminum “Centerline” wheels wrapped in Micky Thompson rubber. It has front 12” and rear 13” disc brakes (with Emergency Brake) for superior stopping ability. This Monte truly rides like a Cadillac with its full front and rear “Hotchkis” suspension and “Strange” axles. Finally, to get into the good stuff. The car is powered by a 502 cubic inch big block crate engine. The heads were ported to match the polished aluminum “Stealth” intake manifold. It has a turbo 350 transmission built for 1000 HP. The transmission has “Gear Venders” for over and under drive to make it a full manual 6-speed. It has a bullet proof 9” rear with 4.11 gear ratio. Nascar radiator with twin fans. Hooker headers with a custom made full stainless steel 3” exhaust. Handmade stainless steel gas tank. Custom made carburetor intake which pulls extra air off the cowl. There’s a A/C idle solenoid to kick up RPM’s when the air conditioner is on. 120 AMP, 1 wire alternator. The battery shuts off with the key. Call, Text or Email Ryan Fallon - 267.228.8150 – Ryanfallon2@gmail.com There are so many custom parts on this Monte that it is nearly impossible to remember them all let alone list them all so I just mentioned a few. The engine dyno-ed out at 605 HP @ 6500 RPM. This car was built for show, not for racing however you could make a few modifications to make it track worthy (roll cage and parachute.) But that would really take from the cars integrity. This Monte Carlo is truly a “Hot Rod Family Car.” It has less than 150 miles on it since it was complete and it has never been raced. It has been entered into many local car shows where it has won award such as “best in show” and “best motor.” Polished aluminum and stainless steel. Almost every bolt under the hood that could be has a Chevy insignia bolt head. It runs on pump gas (93 octane) but will certainly take racing fuel. The car has been garage kept since the build began and has never seen the rain. A little about the owner/builder… This multiple award winning show stopper is owned by and was built by master mechanic Joe “Slim” Ulanowski. He has been building custom/race cars for well over 40 years and his garage Academy Automotive which is located in Northeast Philadelphia has been open since 1976. He has built and restored numerous award winning vehicles in his career. Slim and Academy Automotive are proud sponsors of the wounded warrior project in which “Slim” had his hand in the building of the Wounded Warrior Projects 1969 Chevy Camaro SS.

Next Corvette ZR1 to get 700 horsepower?
Tue, 19 Feb 2013Word has it General Motors may offer as much as 700 horsepower in the C7 Corvette ZR1. Motor Trend reports the next Corvette Z06 will continue to rely on its naturally aspirated 7.0-liter V8 engine for thrust, but the lump will deliver substantially more power. How much more? MT says the engine could deliver up to 600 ponies. That's a jump of 95 horsepower over the current Z06, though no figures have been finalized as of yet. Right now, GM is reportedly waiting to see what sort of grunt it can glean from the next ZR1.
The automaker has already made it clear it will resurrect the LT5 name for the new supercharged V8, and if GM is already pulling 600 from the Z06, the big dog ZR1 would theoretically offer 700 horsepower. Either way, the range-topping Corvette will be suitably insulated from its less potent siblings. Stay tuned. We aren't likely to see the Z06 for at least a year, with the ZR1 trailing along at some point there after.
GM execs fired over fraudulent India emissions testing
Mon, 29 Jul 2013General Motors hadn't had a recall in India since 1995. That changed when it was discovered that certain employees were playing tricks with local emissions testing in order to ensure passing grades for engines. More than ten GM Powertrain employees in India and the US have been let go over the ensuing emissions flap, including Sam Winegarden, VP of global engine engineering, a man who has been with the company since 1969, leading development of some marquee powerplants.
According to Automotive News, an internal investigation revealed that employees "violated testing procedures," sometimes swapping specially prepared low-emissions engines during testing regimes for the Chevrolet Tavera SUV equipped with the 2.0-liter and 2.5-liter engines. Employees were also manipulating weights in order to get vehicles placed into different emissions categories. The discovery has led to GM recall the 114,000 Taveras produced over an eight-year period and halting their production and sale.
The Economic Times of India reports that the issue is due to "a faulty component." GM has developed a solution to the issue, and once it is validated in testing and approved by the Indian authorities, the recalled vehicles will be fixed at dealers and production will resume.
The story of the 2014 Chevrolet SS: "Luxury, power, refinement, handling"
Thu, 07 Mar 2013Not including the women and men who built it, the 2014 Chevrolet SS has only been seen in person by a piddling number of people - fewer humans than would fill the gymnasium at a high school volleyball game. Not including the men and women who built it, no one has driven it. Even so, it is already saddled with two controversies: the way it looks and the way it shifts.
First to that shifting. Did we love the last Americanized Holden, the awesomely sportsome Pontiac G8 GXP, and its six-speed manual? Of course. Do we wish the SS came with a six-speed manual? Of course. But we'd like a toboggan to come with a manual transmission. We'd put a manual transmission on a weasel if we could because we're just wired that way; if it moves, it should come with a stick and a clutch. Or at least the option.
Let's climb down off the ledge, though. We haven't driven the SS and we have no idea how good (or not) the automatic is. And the Hobson's Choice in transmissions when it comes to sport sedans like the BMW M5, Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG and Jaguar XFR-S and, oh yeah, cars-that-really-should-have-manuals like the Audi R8 and Nissan GT-R and Porsche 918 and every single Lamborghini and Ferrari, for instance, hasn't stopped us from enjoying what is clearly the gruesome, dual-clutched demise of Western automotive civilization. Because in spite of our ululations at the dying of the six-speed light, we understand.
