a bonneville isnt a g-body?

the le mans/grand le mans (the pontiac version of the malibu), bonneville and the grand prix are all g-bodies. from years 1978-1987.

700 in a monte? not from the factory.

the reason i know this is because the 700r4 requires a shorter driveshaft than the 350,200, 2004r,400. ALL of these transmission can use the stock shaft and GM wasnt about to have two different size driveshafts for one kind of car. lots of people have put 700's in their g-body and every one of them had to get get their drive shaft shortened to make it fit. also requires a custom crossmember. they only had two cross members, those for the 3 speed, like the 200 and the 350, and one for the 2004r.

9 years of experience and havent seen a g-body from the factory with a 700r4. they came in f and b body cars, not g body
