A little history on my Monte. I bought the ‘mere bag of shells’ in Jan. 1985 as an ‘84 "left-over".      Now 20+ years later friends call it the Jurassic monte. This was my first car I bought new at 18 yrs old and only car I have owned since.  It’s current state as follows:

383 two-bolt (ex 91 L98)
Edelbrock EDL-3500 Performer RPM PRO-FLO EFI system
AFR 195 heads 2.02/1.60 74cc
GMPP LT4 HOT cam 218/228 @.050 .525”/.525” lift
Crane 1.6 ratio gold race roller rockers
SRP forged flat-tops 9.8 CR
Eagle SIR 5.7” rods and Eagle ESP 3.75” cast crank
N.O.S. spray plate (made custom in 95 to fit the wacky non-square plenum)
Dynomax 1-5/8" HPC coated shorty headers  
Dynomax 2-1/2" super-turbo mufflers
TCI street fighter TH-350 transmission
TCI break-a-way 2400 stall 11” converter
3.42 gears in original 7.5” rear   w/Auburn pro-series high-bias posi.
Baer 12” rear disc conversion
Hotchkis boxed rear upper/lower trailing arms
Hotchkis tubular front upper control arms   w/billet tie-rod sleeves
Centerline 16 x 8 wheels w/ Toyo 245/50 FZ4 Proxes all 4 corners

Best time in this configuration: 12.65/113.8 w/150hp shot of N.O.S.
