I don't believe so. If you open the hood on a Monte Carlo, you'll see the engine sits much farther back. The fan shroud almost looks like a playground tunnel.

Re: chevelle frame interchange question??
Don't have a book to check any more but I seem to remember a 4 inch difference in length and that a 4door chevelle and Monte may be the same but not two door.That is only off the top of my old head which is not like is used to be.

Re: chevelle frame interchange question??
Any frame from a 68 to 72 A body will work. Chevelle, LeMans, Olds, etc.
I've got a spare frame if he needs one. Send me a pm
