    Thanks for the comments, more pics will come.

    HID's are on the long list of wants for the car.

    I went with 14" springs, wrong size obviously, car still sits at stock ride height installed. These will be promptly replaced in the spring.

    i had a red 96. in fact, my parents still have it and my dad uses it as his daily beater car. i liked the looks, hated the power and handling. you took care of both those hot buttons.

    if that air filter is there on the valve cover because of pvc issues, check out this thread, http://www.grandprixforums.net/how-g...her-44478.html (How to get PCV to work instead of valve cover breather!)


    nice work so far. this swap should be quite the upgrade lol

    With a little convincing it should clear everything... but some nice custom hood work would be kewl... unless you're going for that sleeper O.M.G.W.T.F.B.B.Q. look

    As it sits, I don't think the hood will close, some type of adjustment will have to be made.

    I have been looking into the PCV issue, and I think running a line from the oil cap to the TB is the route to go over the breather, its on there for aesthetics haha

    There is a site I have bookmarked at home that sells cowl hoods for the Cutlass, its $$$$ but this car will get a full paint job / restore in a few years. After all this is a hobby, not an investment.

    if thats a N* TB you hook the pvc hose up to the nipple on the TB

    a l67 or l32 you need to drill and tap for nipple on the TB. its where the brass plug is. its all there in that thread.

    Couple more





    This last one shows the ride height with the long springs installed. Its at or slightly higher than stock, I don't like it and will be getting some 12" or maybe 10" springs in the spring. The front coil overs are not complete yet.
