1970 Monte Carlo SS Super Sport on MuscleCar

In 1991, I found a Nice green 70' SS Monte Carlo like this for only $750 from my burger job. The motor spun a bearing after 400 miles, put the 350 motor from my 71' parts car in at high school auto-shop, then it was burning out ignition coils so I converted to electronic HEI ignition. Then a drunk lady in a 69' Olds Cutless 442 with no insurance smashed me head on while her boyfriend walked away from the scene. Buckled/cracked frame, kept the motor, traded the 70&71 for a 77' Firebird and was unmotivated to put the motor in it so I sold it as-is.

My 1970 shadow gray Monte came with rallies, 400 small block and 12 bolt rear end dif. I didnt need an SS to hot rod it. I pumped it to a 406, with 450 horses, rebuilt and beefed up suspension, lowered it one inch and installed a turbo 400 street/strip with 373 gears. It is 100% immaculate and with the rallies and BF Goodies is one head turner.

A 1969 GP was available with a 390hp 428ci and a 4 speed. 1970 was available with a 370hp 455, even a Hurst SSJ was available. The Monte Carlo SS had no LS6 option, only a 360hp LS5 454 of which almost none were made. Both are cars I wouldn't mind having, I would just rather have the GP more because even the lower priced cars got a 400 Pontiac with 350hp vs the low priced Monte which was a 250hp 350sbc.

The Thunderbird was in a complete class higher than the MC. 1970 Thunderbird prices started at 5000. As well the Thunderbird 429 was also rated at 360 horses and came with 4 bbl and full dual exhaust as standard. The MC was standard with a 307 or 350 and 2 bbl. The fact was that the GP also had 350 horses standard and a 370 horse 455 was optional. The MC was a great car and in the personal luxury category which was about to really explode in the 70s and early 80s.

The Monte also pulled on the 455 Grand Prix with room to spare: wildaboutcarsonline.com/members/AardvarkPublisherAttachments/9990420932437/1969-11_MT_Three_For_The_Road_1-6.pdf And if you further research the subject, you'll see that the Monte was the least expensive of the three, even with a maxed out option sheet. Futhermore, the 1970 Monte Carlos base engine was a regular fuel 350 4 barrel. Given the car's relatively light weight, performance was solid. Those who needed more had plenty of low cost options. And despite your claim, no 307 or 2 barrel 350 existed in the 1970 Monte Carlo lineup. www.lov2xlr8.no/brochures/chevy/70monte/70monte.html I suggest you conduct further research in the future prior to posting about cars that you clearly know nothing about.

Pete shea - The base engine for the 1970 Monte was a 350 2bbl. That’s why there were two 350’s offered. There were also two 400’s offered, although the 2bbl version was a small block. The 4bbl one was actually a 402 big block, which is what I have in my 1970....

[@bmt336]

@@peteshea8010 I suggest you read what I wrote again and see that it is largely complementary to the MC so relax. So the MC had a 4 bbl 350 as a standard. The fact is the Thunderbird was an entire class above the MC and had one engine that was very well suited for it's mission of personal luxury, NOT 1/4 mile runs. Effortless highway travel all day and arriving relaxed. The MC was on a stretched Malibu frame, the Thunderbird and Mark III were on their own. Its apples and oranges.

In other words, the 1970 "455 HO" was a dog by today's standards. Indeed, the "390 HP" (Gross) 428 that offered in the Gran Prix SJ prior to the advent of the "455 HO" was indeed a more powerful engine. Vintage road test of a 1970 "455 HO" Pontiac Grand Prix.

For 1971, the 3.31 became the standard ratio for the SS. The car in this video belongs to a friend of mine, Jim Schneider, and it has the 2.56 ratio. I also have a '70 Monte SS454, and it also came with a 2.56. I've restored my car and I pulled the 2.56 posi and put a 3.55 in it last summer. Until then, it ran 105 mph in 2nd gear at 5500 rpm. I never tested to see what it would run at 5500 rpm in 3rd. I'm sure it would have been around 140. As you know, the Monte Carlo was not intended to compete at the drag strip with anyone.

The 454 was gone with a 350 4 barrel in it's place. Both my 70 and 71 would do burnouts just fine and we clocked a mile at 140 in the 71 once. Judging by this chart it seems like the SS was damn close to similar cars like the 396 SS Chevelle and Mach 1 Mustang so I'm not sure what he was on about. He probably had a 73 Swinger Duster that "run's 11's and pulls the tires off the ground and blown the tires off at 60, bone stock". I had to pay huge money for a custom built 500hp 383 stroker in my 83 Firebird with 4:10 gears and it still only ran a 13.54 at 104, it would sit about 5000 rpm at 65 when I blew the 700R4 overdrive and put in a TH350 with stall converter and shift kit in the valvebody.
