The Official 86 Monte Carlo is done thread
 
So here it is, 99% finished and going on the trailer. We did not have time to finish the A/C, and the torque converter is stalling to high, and we need to finish the nitrous install, but the car looks killer and this is a car show.

We need to thank some friends.

Holley stepped up and hooked us up with everything on the top of the motor from the killer cylinder heads, Weind intake, New 750 HP carb (bad ass), the new billet mechanical 170 fuel pump, also the new 150 billet electric pump for the nitrous side. Speaking of nitrous they topped the motor with a 2 stage 250HP cheater NOS set up compete with a pretty polished bottle. The little 355 CI motor sounds nasty and is making some nice driveable power. Look for a install feature over at GPSuperStore.com

Hotchkis helped us out with one of everything they make for these cars including a kit, Upper Arm, and A set of 4 Hotchkis shocks on each corner.

As with about everything we build, Forgeline ZX3Ps in all chrome, sizes 18 X 12 and 18 X 10s with 335 / 30 /18s and 255 /40 /18s give the car a killer stance and aggressive look.

Our good buddies at March made sure we used one of their awesome mid mount serpentine set ups including their new beautiful billet alternator and PS pump.

My buddy William at One Off Rides stayed up all night last night, literally, finishing the killer stereo install including Xtant amps and Elevation Audio supplied their new wicked speakers.

Also of particular interest is our Prodigy Customs Wilwood 13" six piston, 12.2 four piston setup for all G Bodies. Looks and works fantastic. Thanks to our friends at Wilwood for helping sort out what parts we needed to make this kit.

And last special thanks to Carter hickman for the paint deqign. We were stuggling with this one, we knew we wanted 2 tone, we knew we wanted to use white since it is a daily driver, he sure nailed it!

So there it is. it was a bit of a thrash finihing 2 cars. Look for Vette pictures soon as we get it out of the paint booth.

That thing is pretty sick! I am sure it will turn a lot of heads!

Looks awesome! Great wheels, f.flares look factory (or should have been) and the graphic layout looks perfect!

I wonder if I can buy back one of the Montes I had in high school....These Gbody cars are gonna get really popular in the next few years I think. There's so much you can do to them (as long as you can avoid the smog police).

Nice looking car.

What's the story with the little fuel cell, and pump in front?

ProdigyCustoms 05-18-2007 08:05 AM

The tank is a nitrous enrichment fuel tank. We will run 114 octane in that tank so when he pushes the button there are no detonation concerns. The engine runs a Holley 170GPH mecahnical pupm and the nitrous tank has its own 150 GPH Holley black pump.

As for the headlights, Michael and I had spirited discussions over that, and at the end of the day it was settled by time, or lack there of. But it is very possible you will see black headlights later.

Frank, you have any pictures of the Vette yet?
