This is my 78 malibu before and after. It has a 350 4 boltmain bored 40 over aluminum heads Barrygrant 650 demon carb and lots of other goodies. Putting the power to the ground is a TCI turbo 350 trans with a 3500 stall converter alburn carrier with 4.10 richmond gears.fresh lemanns blue paint. Beleive it or not i put this car together last year.It took a total of about 7 months. The motor was already built and i had it in a nova i used to race but went with this body because it makes a better drag car i think.
My plans for this year are 150 shot of nitous, moser axles,griffin aluminum 1 inch tube rad and new interior with rollcage. It should run low 11s or high 10s. .

Beautiful Bu Marcus! A buddy of mine does the same track with an old Biscayne, a puke-green Bu and an S10. Maybe I'll see you there someday

Nice Malibu. It has good horsepower. I hope to get mine to 463 or more someday.

Looks good, very familiar. Spray it, when my malibu was runnning 12.40 a 150 shot got it down to an 11.30. That was spinning the tires though. Nitrous is great.
