    Showing some love to the GN - Time for updates - Looking for Advice

    I'd just pull the engine out, it is easy after the first 5 or 6 times. Drop the oil pan and fix the oil leaks and new valve springs. Then address the issue at hand with what you have, you probably have a issue with the internal wastegate bleeding off or turbo mismatch. A 3000 stall at 0 psi...

    Wellness checks for the "I ran 10's with a paper clip and welded the gate in my day" old folks needed?

    Pretty sure I went 10's on a JayC chip and then snapped an axle the next run.

    Wellness checks for the "I ran 10's with a paper clip and welded the gate in my day" old folks needed?

    Now VGG only goes 15's in a T. Someone needs to tell these guys how to do it. Can't just flip the doo dads and electricals on and go. I took my bone stock 170,000 mile T to the track and ran 14.1 at 98, chip-injectors-hotwire-340-intake-downpipe-no cat was 13.0 at 104 25 years ago. Even...

    I think they really didn't want it to leave hard after all the oil downs and no 11.50 safety equipment. She increased the boost ramp, probably boost was commanded but still had pulled a ton of timing out low rpm until it got going, ran 11.3 at 126. I'm sure the NHRA/insurance watches the show...

    Will these Vectors fit?

    I run 8.5 inch vectors with 275 60 15 M&H DR's and the lips need to be rolled to fit. It also rubs with weight in the trunk.

    Wellness checks for the "I ran 10's with a paper clip and welded the gate in my day" old folks needed?

    Check out the new hot rod garage show, they threw ALL the parts at the GN, only ran low 11's. It sounded like they had no boost off the line. 126 mph should have been easy 10's. I bet since no metal works in the car for safety, track made them try to stay about 11.50, hence the soft launch but...

    Holley HP EFI + Cruz Harness Install

    I don't remember. I don't run any gauges, I run all electric sensors to the Holley. I run the factory stock dash like it was 1987, but with the 3.5 inch touchscreen off to the right. I just pull the log and look at what it shifted at and the boost it was running at that rpm and fuel correction...

    Holley HP EFI + Cruz Harness Install

    Been running pump 93, have C16 if I go to the track. It is fast enough for the street on 13-15 psi on pump 93. Alky was awesome when I had it back in the day.

    PCV Help?

    I had so much vacuum cruising I had to shove a restrictor into into the catch can to reduce the dia of the engine intake side line. Otherwise it'd suck enough oil in 30 minutes of driving to fill the catch can using a working GM pcv valve, which also acts as the check valve to not boost the...

    Alky control new kit issues

    Stock turbo loves 24 psi on meth. It is like a whole nother car at that level.

    Holley HP EFI + Cruz Harness Install

    Update: tuning, there's always tuning. I have it now so the AFR's are rock steady cruising or on it part throttle. Target is say 13.8, it sits at 13.8. Barely bounces maybe 13.7, 13.9 or whatever I want the fueling to do. Pro tip - check the base rpm table cells, ie, don't start have columns at...

    Saving another T from the part out

    I used to live a town or two over, they use rocks on the road instead of sand in the winter. It's brutal on everything. I suspect it just pitted chrome and easily rusted even if you drove it in the spring after the salt washes away.

    Holley HP EFI + Cruz Harness Install

    I run a Weldon 1100 external pump. It has it's own relay, and is hooked to a manual switch and ignition trigger. My fan is stock, and I hooked the relay to the low speed setting since I run a CAS V4 SLIC and don't need a ton of cooling usually (Fbody radiator). If I have to, I could just move...

    Holley HP EFI + Cruz Harness Install

    All my pics are gone, ok so maybe I can restart a thread and link to my website vs embedding. Anyways, I haven't had to post much as the Holley HP and Cruz harness is rock solid. Just fire it up and drive it. Now, I did tune it, lowered the AFR around town cruising to 13.5-13.8-14.2 instead of 14.7.

    Vapor canister purge valve replacement

    I run the same TE45a I've had since 2004. Not touched at all. Been through 3 builds with it. Currently 255? inch stroker, alum heads, and I love the Holley EFI. I got to ditch all the piggyback wiring and used a new Cruz performance engine harness for the Buick and Holley. Holley coils, no more...

    Intermittent miss on number 6 cylinder low voltage on A11 terminal ecm

    I run Holley EFI and a Cruz engine harness, however, back in the day, check the voltage drop across the factory ignition switch. Back 10+ years ago I had to replace mine as it was losing voltage and that thing feeds everything... And its a total pain to swap that switch if its the issue too.

    Took a while but figured out who is a little B*tch and who actually supports the pros.

    There's what, a handful of guys that went 10's 20 years ago after tons of passes on what they claim $1500 in mods, only to end up breaking it anyways. I'm a member of Drove Over The Crank Club when on my way back from Burger King in April 2001, 22 psi on pump 93 = boom, saved the heads, intake...
