Gateway Classic Cars of Philadelphia is proud to digitally present this 1987 Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS. It is a meticulously built street/strip machine that blends aggressive styling with serious performance hardware throughout. Finished in striking custom Redfire paint over a burgundy cloth interior, this SS makes a bold statement before the engine is even fired.
Under the hood sits a 4-bolt-main 355ci GM crate small-block, built with 10.5:1 compression and topped with Dart Sportsman II heads. A Comp Cams hydraulic cam and full roller rockers by BPH Racing Engines deliver strong, reliable power across the RPM range. Ignition duties are handled by an MSD billet distributor with timing control and 6AL ignition, ensuring crisp throttle response and consistent spark. Cooling is managed by a five-core aluminum radiator, while ceramic-coated headers feed into a custom 3-inch exhaust with Flowmaster mufflers, producing a deep, authoritative tone.
Power is sent through a built Turbo 350 automatic transmission, upgraded with a Boss Hogg torque converter. A steel 3-inch driveshaft with 1350 U-joints and billet yokes ensures durability under hard launches. Out back, an 8.5-inch Grand National 10-bolt rear end features 30-spline Moser axles, C-clip eliminators, 4.10 Motive gears, an Eaton Posi-Traction unit, and an LPW aluminum girdle cover-a proven setup for strength and traction.
Additional performance details include a 4-inch Glasstek fiberglass hood, a trunk-mounted battery housed in a Moroso battery box, and a well-appointed cockpit designed with both safety and function in mind. The interior is equipped with an 8-point roll cage with dual swing-outs, AutoMeter Ultra-Lite gauges, an Innovate Motorsports wideband AFR gauge, and a Grant carbon-fiber steering wheel.
This Monte Carlo SS represents a carefully executed build with high-quality components throughout-offering muscle-car attitude, modern performance upgrades, and unmistakable street presence.
