This traditional and \naffordable front engine\/rear-wheel-drive design lends itself to common \nupgrades and modifications for a wide range of high-performance \napplications, from drag racing to road racing. Many of the vehicles GM \nproduced using this chassis were powered by V-8 engines, and others had \npopular turbocharged V-6 configurations. Some of the special-edition \nvehicles were outfitted with exclusive performance upgrades, which can \nbe easily adapted to other G-Body vehicles. \n\nKnowing which vehicles were equipped with which options, and how to \nbest incorporate all the best-possible equipment is thoroughly covered \nin this book. A solid collection of upgrades, including brakes, \nsuspension, and the installation of GMs most popular modern engine-the \nLS Series V-8, are all covered in great detail. The aftermarket support \nfor this chassis is huge, and the interchangeability and affordability \nare a big reason for its popularity. It?s the last mass-produced \nV-8\/rear-drive chassis that enthusiasts can afford and readily modify. \n\nThere is also great information for use when shopping for a G-Body, \nincluding what areas to be aware of or check for possible corrosion, \nwhat options to look for and what should be avoided. No other book on \nthe performance aspects of a GM G-Body has been published until now. \n\n? First book ever published on these popular cars. \n\n? A well-rounded look at the best aftermarket high performance \nhandling and braking components currently offered for the GM G-body. \n\n? Includes a full chapter on how to install a modern GM LS-series \nengine and matching transmission into a vintage G-body chassis. \n\n ","brand":"CarTech","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":31911890190407,"sku":"B04338","price":30.87,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0057\/9813\/3831\/files\/b04338p.jpg?v=1772270434","url":"https:\/\/www.midlifeclassiccars.com\/cs\/products\/gm-g-body-performance-projects-1978-1987-performance-how-to","provider":"MidlifeClassicCars.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
