    1987 Grand National powertrain, suspension, etc. This would make a KILLER project!!

    Complete motor, engine harness, accessories, transmission, converter, exhaust, front suspension, cross member, steering, etc. All still bolted together. Would be an AWESOME swap project as everything is there except the turbo. Just under 64k miles. It came out of a car that had a tree fall on...

    Ever wanted to buy a low mileage GN on your credit card?

    It's true! I have an 85 GN with powerstroke intercooler and lot of other extras. Just needs finishing up. The heads are out being ported now, so they'll need to be bolted on, plus the intake, etc. Other than that, it's a rust free 85 GN with 47k miles, T-tops, mint interior, etc. Car is...

    PT61, ZERO miles, with adjustable wastegate

    Decided to go a little different direction with the car. Precision PT61...flows up to 680hp. Standard 3 hole buick bolt up. NEVER even hooked up, used for mockup purposes only. My loss is your gain. I had almost $700 into it with the turbo, wastegate and shipping. Yours for $550 shipped...

    To o-ring or not to o-ring?

    in talking to an engine builder we were discussing o-rings. My thought was to use o-rings to keep the gaskets from blowing as easily and be able to handle higher boost. his point was that would you rather blow a head gasket if your tuning is off, something sticks or goes wrong...or would you...

    'Twas the night before head porting...

    Tomorrow I am taking the buick heads up to get them ported and completely gone through. Today, I pull em. I guess it's a good thing the turbo went out on me or I would have been driving around on this: http://www.sixtyninecamaro.com/images/gn/headgasket.jpg Beyond the blown section...

    alternator bracket option after a/c delete?

    What are my options? I don't really want to use an a/c delete pulley, I would rather relocate the alternator completely and use new bracketry. Are the brackets on the cold air cars integrated a/c & alternator too or are they seperate pieces? Could I get an alternator bracket from a non a/c...

    header gaskets/porting heads/sizes?

    are the ports sizes the same whether they are stock replacement gaskets or copper or whatever else is out there? I might build my own headers, but I want to make sure of how far the exhaust ports can be opened on the heads and size my runner accordingly.

    Has anyone toyed with intakes from OTHER 3.8 engines?

    Came across this one today at a U Wrench It yard. It's from an 87 Celebrity. Transverse mounted motor, so the thermo housing is in an odd place, but I tihnk that can be worked around without too much difficulty. It has nice long straight runners. This is not for the stock turbo location...

    Carved up my stock intake...

    I relocated my turbo to the front of the car. Saw no reason to force all that fresh air through that small hole in the back anymore. So I went to work. See my progress here: http://www.michiganspeed.com/Speedforum/showthread.php?t=4857

    Can the oil pan be removed with the engine still in the car?

    I need to weld a bung for the oil drain back line intot he oil pan. can it be removed without yanking the engine out? If not, is there another place I can tap into for an oil drainback? My car was originally a hot air car, but now has the turbo front mounted, so the hole in the intake is no...

    Would there be any interest in intake and exhaust flanges?

    I am designing a new intake manifold and maybe some headers while I am at it. I have a guy doing the flanges on a water jet cutting machine. Once the initial program is written, cutting more langes is fairly cheap. Would anyone else be interested in some? I can get pricing form him...

    How much boost can a deltagate actually control?

    I have a deltagate I got with the car. Has a number 9 spring in it. The turbo I am using now is a PT61. I figure on running somewhere between 22 and 28psi depending on the mood I am in that day, the tune, fuel, etc. Can a deltagate control that much boost? What about the stock gate? Can...

    What F-body radiator?

    I keep searching and everyone is just saying "f-body radiator". What year? I'm assuming it has to be in the 93-02 range since it's aluminum, but I wanted to double check.
