Just a heads up to all the Buick owners out there that my GN was almost stolen. Thanks to the kill switch I had installed they were unable to take it. They popped out my passanger side lock and messed up my steering column and ignition pretty bad. When I got to my car and noticed it the car was...

I was wondering if anyone in the Tampa area could help me with some brake problems. I was recently at a car show and another Buick guy told me someone around here has a great brake conversion kit to get rid of my failing Powermaster unit. If anyone has any information about this please contact...

I see it says you are from the Windy City and thats where I am originally from. I know of a few places that do great turbo buick work around there. First is ANS Performance in Melrose Park, second is Livingston automotive in Schaumburg (where I'm from) and third is Speed Inc. also in Schaumburg...

Thanks for the great info I do know of him and his car. I have seens some of his stuff in a few magazines. I was just inquiring about him since I don't know where else to go to get my motor done. Thank you.

Helloe everybody right now I am looking to have an 87 GN motor rebuilt and freshened up. I live in the tampa area and was wondering if anyone has dealt with Cal Hartline in Melbourne FL. I was curious if anyone knows about how long it takes for him to freshen up a motor like new bearings gaskets...

My best 60' was a 2.0. I was only running the Nittos at 20 lbs. Probably could have dropped them to 15lbs. I also couldn't hold more than 3psi boost at launch anyways I need to adjust my brakes. Unfortunatly I have another problem to fix first. My GN is pumping oil out of the back of the motor...

Bo I didn't seen the Cobra run. What did he get beat by and what were his times do you know?

Went to Bradenton drag strip last night (10-7) with my car for the first time since I had it rebuilt. Every time I ran I got lined up with an import. Of course I won all 6 times I even raced 2 turbo imports not sure what they were. My last run I was set to run a new turbo Neon and the track guy...

The shop where I had my motor built file fit the rings for me to what Diamond told them but I can't tell you what that was. I am also using 3.82" sized pitons since my block was bored out a bit to smooth out the cylinders. Red Regal T I do know a lot of regals meet out in Largo on Saturday...

I have been using a set of Diamond forged pistons for my stock motor. I am really impressed with mine too. They also looked great and came with pins and a ring set for about $500.

Thanks for the help. That really puts my mind at ease knowing this.

I finally got a scanmaster last week to pinpoint some problems I have been having with my GN. One thing that is bothering me is the o2 readings, are the supposed to stay in a certain range rather than jump around. My readings go from 84 to 800 to 472 and all over in between. I just installed a...

If you were still looking for a good octane booster I have found that the new Lucas one in the red bottle works better than all the others I have tried. You still can't go crazy with your boosy but it has helped me get it on the 20 psi range with about 1 degree of knock. It also works very well...

As far as I know Victory Trans isn't in business since the owner Rich ( agood friend of mine) got injured. I haven't heard from him in a long time but still trying. So I'm not sure if he may have reopened once he got better. I really hope he does since he does awesome work on all transmissions...

I was watching the Cubs game yesterday on Chicago's WGN and afterwards while I was eating dinner a show called Mutant X was on. In a couple of the scenes it showed two of the characters sitting in a 87 GN. You could see the turbo 6 on the headrest as they sat in it. They however did not show it...
