Hey, I just found this site and its awesome! I have owned 30 + vehicles so far and just sold my 2000 ss camaro in Jan. I have a 93 5.0 Notch project I just Got back out of storage. I installed a 95gt suspension and 4 wheel discs on it. In 98 while in college I had an ex drag style 79 Malibu, and I came across a 95 t-56 trans. Being a nut I spent school money on the trans. Mustang buddies laughed at me and said that will never be in the Malibu. With No cash and minimal skills, and tools, I fabricated a Manual pedal setup from a 70's vega and a firewall adapter for the hydraulic clutch setup. With 3.42 rear the car would go 70 on the freeway at justa above idle for the cam it had. Topend was silly fast and it still had the 10 disc and drum setup that was shot. I had 16 " Iroc wheels on it and the spool made curves dangerous. I sold that car to finance a house a few years back. My dream was to do a body off, narrow the chassis and install a full c-4 suspension. Since owning the Ls1 Camaro, I would also want to go modified Ls1 and probably auto to go on long trips with the family. I fumbled across two malibu candidates recently.

Thats a link to an Ls1 Malibu but I want to add the C4 suspension and maybe 18x 9 front 18x 10.5 rear
What do ya think? I love the Notch But they are everywhere! Also the Ls1 is lightyears ahead of any factory Naturally aspirated Ford Factory Engine Short of the GT
