Been back on here lurking lately looking at suspension stuff and figured I’d ask since this forum has/had some knowledgeable performance oriented members. Long story short, was handed over a car that my dad, older brother, and I did as kind of a father/son thing back when I was probably 13 or 14 (36 now). Everyone lost interest in it over the years and moved on to different projects but my dad never sold this one. 1979 Malibu wagon with a factory 4 speed. I’ve changed some things out over the last year and bought new wheels and tires for it. 26x9 MT ET streets in the rear. From what I understand the saginaw transmissions won’t handle a ton of abuse so I’m kind of second guessing the sticky tires. I don’t intend to drag race the car every weekend, just more curious to see what it’ll run a time or two and just take it out for cruise nights. Pretty basic mullet build from the late 90’s-early 00’s not a 500hp LS swapped street car by any means. Anyone on here ever abuse an older saginaw 4 speed in their youth and have any tips to share or are they just a boat anchor and I shouldn’t take my chances?
