1985 Monte Carlo SS - "The Black Car"
This a 1985 Monte Carlo SS..."The Black Car"
Here's the Black Car launching at Rocky Mountain Raceway...July 1998
You can see the Mallory ignition, the Edelbrock Air cleaner housing with K&N filter,
Goodyear Hi-Miler hoses and the braided fuel line.
These are all mounted on the 4-bolt 406 "Mighty Mouse" motor.
This shows the wire loom routing and the MSD-6AL box.
There's also an Edelbrock 3701 intake manifold and coated Edelbrock TES headers.
These are the 3 inch exhaust tips.
About the 85 Monte Carlo: We got this car in April 1996. We found it on a car lot
purely by accident.
Hear the Warlocks:
