I'm still a noob and am learning but do all Gbody cars have jacking pads in the rear by the torson bar? I thought it was only the 87+ with them. If that is the case then I'm assuming I'm jacking from a further rear position then you are?
There are no jack pad spots on my '83. Later Carreras had them but I am not sure what year they were introduced. 87ish sounds right but can't confirm.

The thing I like about the "hockey puck" style is I can orient them to the direction of the pinch weld. Hard to do that with the slotted blocks that I've looked at because the slots only run 90º and I'm not sure there is enough room in the channel of the QuickJack to turn the blocks.

Let me know how that works for you.

You can't buy happiness, but you can buy car parts which is kind of the same thing.
