Picked it up after the other car was lost and stolen by my local chasis shop.

Found this one sitting in a barn whereit was parked 9 years ago.
Got her for a song. Added fuel, cranked right up. Been sorting out the issues she has from sitting but it's getting closer to taking longer and longer trips.

V8 car with auto on column. Factory ac and sway bar car.


I'll start by posting up some pics or videos I have.
I broke the top end of the motor down, ported the heads using a lt4 chevy valve. 11/32 and light. Cut the valves down to a 1.84/1.50 so even lighter now.
Flowed .252 at .500 lift when down.

Used a PC seal, a pac 1218 conical spring also And a light retainer.

The intake was simple, popped a eBrock on her, nothing special. Added a holley 600 and new cam I ground
218/224
261/287
475/485 lifts
108 plus 4
Installed at 104

Headers and a dual exhaust with x pipe.



I am planning an upgrade to the suspension. Using control freak or no. Waiting for approval from the CFO at this time on the ex spence.
Right now I'm looking at the level 8 strike five wheel design.

Drop the front 1 5/8
Rear 1 inch.

The rear s a 3.54 geared posi and the trans is a good 904/998


Hope you enjoy the sounds. I'm not good at videos or pics.

Thug wheel is oing to be a 17x9 square with a 245/45/17 tire.
The car has Kyb shocks, a complete set of poly suspension bushings and I just finished doing the rear spring packs.

I'm looking at the will wood rake upgrades also

Awesome Steve! Videos sound great!

You going to hit up the autocross with the gremlin?

And you really should introduce everyone to your Paxton supercharged 426 G3 Hemi 1966 charger as well...

posi or Twin Grip?

Looks and sounds great. I think it'd be fun to drive a Gremmi.

I would like to runs some laps.
I think they turn rather well.

I'll post up more. And introduce the blue bomblet soon
My two Owner ice owned it al my life child

awesome car! one of the coolest cars I had ever seen was a gremlin X levis edition

A few pics for y'all

I lowed it this weekend in the front. Prepping it for the new wheel combo
Almost 1.75 inches lower in the front now.

Not sure if I am going to lower the rear, I could use opinions on that

Just put bigger tires on the rear. Get a little more rake.

Cool little car What CID engine? Yes, lower the back.

I'm looking at this wheel.
Level 8 Wheels strike 5

17x9 with zero offset.

it appears it will fit fine at that size

possibly a 17x7 in front.

225/40/17 and 245/45/17 tires.

the current rear tire is a 27 inch tall piece. it has several inches between fender lips and tire. of course the gremlin has serious pockets so there is no rubbing or chance of it. I'm going to lower it if i do that tire, i think the car would look even better and its fitting of the tire and wheel choice.

that engine is the original 304. it runs surprisingly well. i have a 393 inch destroyed 401 in the garage I'm starting work on right now. ill run ls1 rockers on it, a decent hud flat tappet cam and shoot for around 500-550 hp at flywheel.

of course thats probably way too much for such a light car though.

Cool Gremlin, good buddy of mine is into AMC's. He had a Randall Gremlin for a while, that was a nice car too.

Thanks for the kind words
