I have a 99 or 2000 Chevy Lumina with the 3.8. I use it as a bump n run car or otherwise known as an off road derby. Car runs awsm, except every time the car gets a good whack it will start running like crap for about 20 to 30 seconds before it comes back to life. It does have the stock tank in the stock location and plan on getting a fuel cell moved to the inside of the car. So my question is, is why does that happen and can I get an quick easy fix? I ask because guys don't touch their tanks and run great with no issues. I'm gonna start with adding more gas and changing the filter. Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Wondering where I can find information, wondering if a box vic body will fit on a bubble vic frame. Also tips to adapt a ford c4 trans to a 305 sbc That tranny and that motor won’t fit together with anything. Maybe they make a plate, but 90% sure they don’t. Look for a Chevy tranny like a th350 or 700r4!

Thank you. I know a guy that does it but I wanna know how. I know he runs 2 flywheels welded together and a adapter plate made from 3/16in steel. But I am still scratching my head
