Monte Carlo SS #3
Monte Carlo SS #3
After seeing the Monte Carlo Aero Coupe in 1986 I said, "Self you need to get one these." Hmmm, that sounds familiare. So, when I ran across a for sale ad in the Sunday paper for an 1987 a Aero Coupe I decided to go take look at it. It was good shape but had been repainted white and maroon with gold pin stripping and had really crappy looking after market wheels.
I found original set of wheels and put them on. I had to put a short block in it because of a crack in the lifter galley on cylinder #8. I added a Comp Cams Comp U Cam, Crane timing chain, anti pump up lifters, 1:6 roller tipped rockers and a Melling HV oil pump. I also tweaked the HEI distributor and the Rochester Q jet.
I drove the 87 for a couple of years until I got the Corvette inch and bought a 1982 Corvette.
