    Looking for bumper fillers for 87 gn painted already

    Like Sam said, the Spool Fools are very close with out painting. This is what I did. The match is not 100% perfect in certain light condition. But 99% of the time it looks like a perfect match. Beats painting them for my application.

    1987 turbo T value

    Depending on condition, I think yes, its possible. A running driving car with a solid body, decent paint that's been well maintained mechanically even with higher mileage could bring 20k.

    First time on the dyno with the Buick!

    Update The local 1/4 mile is not open yet, but an 1/8th mile was open last night, the air here was exceptional so I decided to go. Ran a new best with the car. First pass was a 6.99@97.51 with an easy launch. The car was hooking well so I got more aggressive with the launch and tuning...

    Rebuild time

    OP, like stated if you are serious about running E85, do yourself a favor and buy one of those cheap bottle testers and check your local fueling stations for ethanol content before committing and spending the $$ on the fuel system. Even where I am in the country with multiple ethanol plants...

    First time on the dyno with the Buick!

    I've been wanting to dyno the 86 GN and get an idea of where the peak power was and how far I could push this old TA60 Turbo and where it stopped making power. So I paid a visit to the dyno on Friday and I was pleased with how it did. Mods are in my sig. This was on E85, which I confirmed the...

    Looking for slip yoke options

    What options do we have for a high strength 2004r slip yoke for the stock u-joint size? I picked up a 3.5 steel drive shaft locally last year and had new u-joints(stock size) and a Neapco slip yoke installed. I only have a handful of passes on it and the times are in my sig. 60ft in the...

    Intercooler Cleaning

    I have been going to the local parts store and getting a case of brake cleaner. If I buy a case they typically sell it to me for 50% off the individual can price on the shelf. I use 6-8 cans in my PTE SLIC and put the remaining cans on the shelf.

    Stuttering after warmed up and driving

    A gauge is needed to monitor fuel pressure, or a pressure transducer in conjunction with powerlogger. If your not getting a 1:1 pressure increase with each PSI of boost you could run very lean. You don't want to be lean under boost. I had a bad coil pack on my 86 and it would start to break...

    Stuttering after warmed up and driving

    In addition to what TexasT mentioned to check, are you monitoring fuel pressure? Are you getting the correct 1:1 pressure increase with each PSI of boost? What fuel pump? How old is the pump? Fuel filter fresh?
