You can remove the ignition switch, on your 1981, Monte Carlo, by removing the retaining clip. With the retaining clip removed, whole the switch out and remove the wiring.

No, you will have to use another year tranny out of a GM vehicle in that application as GM never put a manual tranny in a 81 monte.
87 Monte Carlos are identical to the 81-88 Monte Carlos and Cutlass. Basically all GM vehicles of the same body type.
i recently did the same on my 81 monte. her names carla! if you can track down a 78 thru 88 monte the 700r4 trans is to long but the 200r4 overdrive tranny is the same length and yoke as your th350. all monte g bodies were over drive but thr 200r4 and th350 are the same length! good luck and keep that monte on the road!!! see you at the light!
eBay, advanced auto parts or junkyard depends on what ur looking for. if its body parts a junkyard you can use parts from 81-86 they are all compatible
How do i replace a 81 mack injector pump
Technically any G body from 78-87. This would include the Malibu, GMC Caballero, Olds Cutlass, Monte Carlo, Buick Regal, Pontiac Grand Prix, and 81-83 Grand LeMans.
I've never heard of a 388 big block, but I'll say that in general, it's usually pretty easy to install a big block in place of a small block. Requires a bigger cooling system, and different exhaust, but very do-able. Headers are available for this swap.
Any windshield washer tank from a GM A/G body would work - Chevy El Camino (1978-87), Malibu (1978-83), Monte Carlo (1978-88), Buick Century (1978-81), Regal (1978-87), Olds Cutlass Supreme (1978-88), Pontiac Grand Prix (1978-87)
Definitely from 81-87. A couple things to keep in mind....some of the turn signal levers are different. Some have cruise....some have the wipers on the turn signal, some don't. They will all bolt in but you'd have to re-wire if trying to use a different set up. Some of the 78 and up will also work.
81% of 81= 81% * 81= 0.81 * 81= 65.61
