This page details the work ive done to my 1981 Chevy Malibu, turning it from a daily driven grocery getter to one bad street machine.
The main focus of this project is to make a clean looking, decent handling, powerful, and dependable street car that I could
drive everyday if I wanted. Have fun looking around and send me an email if you have any questions or comments.

6.0 swap really underway! Found an '04 6.0 with 43k miles on it. Just going to throw it in as-is to get it
running and then next spring the heads/cam/intake are going on it. I am shooting to have it running in about 3 weeks.
As soon as I get the BRP headers and my flywheel I can set the motor in the car for the last time and start
hooking stuff up!

6.0 swap underway! Well...sorta. Motor and related stuff is for sale. I am starting to tear it all down and am currently looking
for an LQ4. More details coming soon...

For whatever reason, my ECM fried the other day. I have all but decided to do a 6.0 swap next spring. If the ECM is out of warranty
then I am for sure doing it. I am done sinking anymore money into GEN I stuff. Ill most likely get an LQ4 and
at the minimum throw a cam in it. Maybe some L92 heads right away if the money is there. Carcraft built an LQ4 and with just
a cam, got 480+ HP....with the L92's that went to 550!
