Well, I was wrong. I started it up again, and within a couple seconds, the tinging was gone, and the smoke burned off within a few minutes. It was just oil on the manifolds, like I thought. I guess synthetic smells a lot different than my older cars burned oil... I just have one part left...

Well, I pulled those back two plugs. The tips looked perfect, which is good. But, when I dug around in the #4 cylinder with a pen magnet, I was getting a tiny bit of oily metal flake on the magnet. It doesn't look really bad in there, but it doesn't look perfect either. It looks about the...

The keeper fell when I was changing the valve springs. I dug around in the cylinders with a magnet, didn't find it, so I assumed it fell into the intake. Well, I never did find it, so I just bought a new one, and assumed it fell into a frame rail or something. I spent hours looking for that...

This was one of my larget tasks I've done. I had to remove the intake when I thought I dropped a valve spring keeper in there, while I was tearing things apart, I figured I'd replace the timing chain. I got the whole thing back together and started it up. There was a bit of a metallic...

Hah, ok. I figured that was a possibility. My roommate may have tossed this from the garage floor into the box where I had the intake stored.

I had the intake off, and the timing cover off. Now the timing cover is back on, and I was cleaning the intake and this thing fell off from somewhere. I am sure someone knows what this does. I decided not to go further until I figured out where this thing goes.

So, should I really not consider swapping my cam? I figure if I'm going to have all this apart anyway, I might as well swap the cam? I just ordered the 206/206, but now I am second guessing the purchase, and I have plenty of time to cancel the order. Thinking, maybe I should just leave it...

I have some questions that I think are dumb, but I will ask anyway. I've searched enough, and now I just want to ask. I have to pull my intake, because I think I may have dropped a valve spring retainer in there while swapping springs... Then, while digging around with a magnet, I pulled a...

Did anything come of this? I just brought my GN home from Ohio, and would love to meet some other guys in the area. Haven't had it on the road in six years. I am in the middle of replacing the valve-springs (in-car) right now, but found that my tool won't fit the #6 cylinder, so, if anyone...

I'm planning on purchasing a PT-52 and I'm aiming for mid-low 11's. People seem to reccommend the 009's and some say to just go with the 60lb injectors. I don't have a chip yet, and haven't driven the car in a few years. When I was last at the track there was a guy who offered to burn me...

Summit has them in stock now... at least, they do for the 275/40/17

The body bushing next to the downpipe often melts. Is the frame leaning, or just the body? Measure the frame to ground, as well as the body.

Ehhh... your thread title says PT61, your post says PT51. I cant help you (I'm wondering the same thing)... but I figured I'd point that out.

No... people send me one email and then never respond. Though, now I've got my eyes peeled for an '80s Regal or Cutlass with no drivetrain. There's a 350 Olds Diesel with my name on it, and it needs a body. Though, I'd be far too cheap to put in a 8.5" rear. If I found one with an 8.5", I'll...

Ttt

Here... in lieu of answering another half dozen "is it new?"s, I've taken pictures. The price is now $285 shipped for my time, but you can talk me down to $280. :D I've done my best to take some high-res pictures of the unit. In picture four, you can make out the last half of the part...

Yes, it's brand new, arg... as if the title of the thread wasn't clear. I don't have any papers other than the box, though, if you bought it from anywhere else, all you get is an "Eaton" sticker and I think I got a product survey card with the posi I bought for my GN a couple years ago.

Ehhh... I don't have any PMs. Send it again, or email me, or IM me.

Some bum shipped me a 28-spline for my B-Body (needs a 30-spline)... and I already put a posi in my GN. Part Number 19557-010 $280 shipped (con-US)... as far as I know, the cheapest they go for online is $330ish+$20 shipping. I'll knock off $20 if you pick it up (near Detroit), otherwise...

Still, $280, firm. No, I won't take $250. No, I won't take $260.
