My $.02: stay with the small block so you don't have to swap the trans. Swap the stater support in the trans to use a newer torque converter, a 360 TC won't install in a '66 trans. Get the different driver's side motor mount isolatior (340s and 360s use a different one) swap exhaust manifolds...

LOL I put a stick on fish eye mirror on mine!

Our heavy cars need a lot of traction, good tires are essential. no matter what car, matching the cam, converter and gearing is essential to making a car quick.

The inner I purchased from Layson's fits perfect, but I left it in a hot car, and it warped. I put it on a flat surface with a couple books on it for a week or two, all good now. You have to remove the chrome trim from the old lens and put it on the new one, I ended using epoxy from the back...

Does anyone have option breakdown? I think my '66 Monaco 500 may be single digit or 1 of 1. I have a 440 365 HP, auto, tach, PDB, tilt, a/c, power windows and seat, trunk release, black stripes and the weirdest thing, Mauve over white. The roof was so rusted when I got it, I painted it white I...

I put a rear sway bar on my '66 Monaco 500, stiffer shocks and 235-60-15 tires and it made a huge difference. I did a '69 Roadrunner years ago, I put a larger front sway bar, rear bar, much stiffer shocks and larger torsion bars it was an amazing handling car. There are firm feel steering chucks...

your spedo will be 10% slower showing 50 when you are doing 55, as will your odometer, it will be only 0.9 miles per actual mile If you do fuel economy calculation, it will 10% better than calculated. If you have a 30 tooth speedometer gear put a 27 tooth in, that will put it back to normal My $.02

Piece of cake!

Before I bought my '79 W150, I towed many trailers with my '66 Monaco 4 door with a 383 and 2.76 gears, including a car trailer with a '69 Roadrunner from Sacramento to Pasadena. My car had A/C so it had the 26" rad, our C bodies are great towing platforms. You won't have any issue towing a...

the first 5 are definitely '66 Monaco 14", my 4 door had them, my parents bought the car in '67

My daily is a 1990 Yamaha FJ1200 with a little more than 100,000 on it. My rainy day vehicle is my 1996 V10 4X4 2500 ram truck or the '66 Monaco 500

My uncle had a '67 NY 375 horsepower 440, it had the same dress up as a '67 GTX He was in Nebraska. He said he floored it twice, the first time it scared him so much he didn't want to do it again, the 2ns time, he mis-judged an on coming car when passing, he nailed it and completed the pass with...

My thoughts go to loose lug nuts My $.02

I'd jump between the big wire and the bigger of the 3 other wires to see if it cranks, if it does, the relay has failed My $.02

Yes it is, our huge calipers take a bunch of fluid when the pads are worn out. It is also a larger bore than a drum brake car. I ended up buying a mid '70 dual master and converting to it.

I installed a Holley 4779 750 CFM double pumper on my '66 Monaco 500 440. After 5 attempts at getting the dual line fuel feed to stop leaking, I purchased a new fuel line kit, I was able to get it to seal up and the car is running. I've got an Edelbrock performer intake on the car and I had to...

My $.02 Looking for 450 to 500 horsepower with a 383 is going to require a pretty large cam. They don't make good torque at the bottom of the RPM range. The slip of a higher stall converter is also more slip at lower rpm. A converter has a stator that begins to spin at higher RPM that reduces...

I know it fits my '66 Monaco with the Sagnaw steering column with the chrome telescope lock ring in the center of the wheel. Past that, I'm not sure

I discovered that switch GM P/N 73-01993624 is the same as our tilt/telescope turn signal switch.

for a C body it would be my current car, restored but without the Mauve roof. I would love to know how many '66 Monaco 500s with a 365 horsepower 440, all the power stuff were built with mauve over white with a black and white interior, it could be 1 of 1! All time drool machine would be a '69...
