Some history for those Monte Carlo collectors
Introduced on September 18, 1969, the Monte Carlo was only available as a four person luxury two door coupe. An American mid-size vehicle that originally designed as a personal luxury vehicle, the Chevrolet Monte Carlo was unveiled at the height of GM muscle car power era ...
Originally created by Scott Butler as Chevy's answer to the new A-body Pontiac Grand Prix, Monte Carlo was the creation of Elliot M. Estes, general manager of Chevrolet and Chevrolet's chief stylist, Dave Holls. The styling of the Monte Carlo closely mimicked the more contemporary Cadillac Eldorado, though much of the body and structure were shared with the Chevelle ...
... The Monte Carlo was originally intended as competition to the Ford Thunderbird for the 1970 model year, and has continued to last through six generations to date. Closely based on a contemporary mid-sized sedan, all Monte Carlos have remained as two-door coupes. From the beginning, the Monte Carlo has been one of GM's largest successes on the NASCAR stock car racing circuit ...
... Sales were limited in 1970 when a labor strike cut into profits and dropped sales at 130,657 rather than the projected 185,000. Most Monte Carlos sold for full list price ... Only slight styling updates were made on the 1971 Monte Carlo, including slimmer, vertical taillights. In 1972 the Monte Carlo received a Cadillac-like eggcrate grille that was very similar to the '71 Chevy Caprice.
... In 1972 the Monte Carlo received a Cadillac-like eggcrate grille that was very similar to the '71 Chevy Caprice. The final year for the first generation design, the grille and metal rear trim molding highlighted the updates for the '72 model ...

Well, depending on who you believe, my first Monte is either a generation 6.5 or 7.0.

But my second monte which cost me $3 at a toys r us is a 2nd gen
To me it doesn't get any better then the 4th gen Montes. The '86-88 SS Are the cream of the crop. (the LS models aren't bad either)
The 6.5, or 7th gen Montes are great too in my book. (did anyone decide if the 2006 Montes are indeed the 7th generation?????????)

4th gen 1985 SS w/ 350/200-4R/3.73 and custom shaker hood :)
Personally I wouldn't consider the 06 Monte's another generation - all they really did was change the front end body wise. If you look at most generations of most vehicles, the front and rear clip usually changes, possibly a few times, with any given generation. So I wouldn't even consider it 6.5 gen, rather just a newer 6th gen

FoxintheDen - Seriously consider the Cartuning turbo or similar setup over the supercharger swap.... much more power and ease of install.
Personally I have the 2004 Intimidator series.

I think I have decited to run a turbo. I use to have a 98'GTP with a blower and moded the heck out of it. Ended up with 413 at the wheels and around 29.4lbs of boost. What a fun car but a pain in the @ss to keep running good. I would love to find more in of on turbos or if anyone has one what is it like. Turbo lag? ect...I am starting with a new block and working from the grount up again. Kind of at that point where if i need to do anything different for a turbo I have to do it now, I am working on the cam for the next few days, so if anyone can help let me know....Thanks for your info too!
