About a year ago I replaced the original 350 with a 350 out of a 87 GMC Suburban plan on taking it out later and putting in a 383 Stroker.

About 6 Weeks ago I installed a Phoenix Gold sub with a cheapo amp from wal mart that I was going to buy from this one vato I know. I wound up buying a Coustic 240 watt amp off my primo for $15 will have pics of that later.

Your Monte is in great condition, you will be done in no time. Are you redoin' it the way it is (those wheels are rare) or are you going LO-LO or Donk? 2nd Gen. Montes are the shit! " Go big or stay home.
