    Well if you reviewed everything you would have known that I said the intake gaskets need replaced so I was just gonna go ahead and buy a newer better flowing intake while I had it apart. But thanks anyways.

      You could probably find the wiring diagrams for your bastard throttle body and adapt the harness with newer pigtails and run a regular MAF, TPS and IAC. Then go ahead with a 3400 LIM and 3500 UIM. You will have tune issues but Robertisaar might be able to help with that.


      Or.. just toss on a 75 wet shot and beat the snot out of it. Who knows how long that trans will last.. lol

      Good Luck!

        Ehh, it is perfectly okay to mod a daily driver. Given that your throttle is a PITA to swap, there are other things you can still do.

        Like getting a performance tune/chip, cold air intake, electric water pump, roller rockers, camshaft, NOS, bigger exhaust, trans shift kit,

        the chip will do a lot w/ spark timing, afr's, shift points, etc

          What performance chip/tune would you be talking about?

            Well, judging your response I take it there is no stock PCM tuning options. So I suppose a PCM swap or piggyback system will do.

              the 94-95 A-body L82 PCM is tuneable.... most people don't like it though, myself included.
              1995 Monte Carlo LS 3100, 4T60E...for now, future plans include driving it until the wheels fall off!

                You might be able to fit K&N's RF-1024 under the hood, after finding the right adapters. It's a massive air filter that might even be overkill, but it looks great and I've enjoyed the results.
