Long-tube Hooker headers feed a full dual exhaust with Flowmaster mufflers and polished chrome tips, while an upgraded MSD digital ignition system and MSD distributor help provide dependable spark. Chrome accessories including the alternator, power-steering pump, and master cylinder/booster add to the detailed engine compartment, along with Moroso valve covers and billet spark plug holders.Power is sent through a Turbo 400 automatic transmission featuring a chrome transmission/inspection shield and ribbed aluminum transmission pan. Out back, the Chevelle utilizes a 12-bolt rear axle with 3.08 gearing and an upgraded differential carrier. The rear axle has received new pinion and carrier seals, while a new speedometer gear adds to the extensive mechanical refurbishment. A replacement fuel tank and new fuel lines round out the fuel system, giving this big-block Chevelle the supporting hardware necessary for confident cruising.The chassis has received extensive attention as well. The suspension has been rebuilt with tubular control arms, new shocks, new springs, big-block rear springs, and fresh suspension bushings. Updated steering components and new front sway-bar end links further improve the driving experience. Braking is handled by front disc brakes and completely rebuilt rear drums, backed by a new brake master cylinder. The 17-inch American Racing Torque Thrust II wheels are wrapped in Nitto radial tires, giving the Chevelle a muscular stance while providing a modern touch to its classic appearance.Inside and out, this Malibu has been assembled with the character of a period-correct muscle car while incorporating thoughtful upgrades throughout. The Fathom Green finish, blacked-out SS rear panel, SS badging, chrome trim, and Torque Thrust II wheels give it an unmistakable presence.
