    any 460 guys here?

    I'm doing some cleaning upping on a bunch of engines I got from an estate. I have a feeling these aren't worth anything, but I don't know anything about old 385 series stuff. If I build one of these for a T-Bucket project or my NECKCAR, I won't be using one of these 1200# intakes, so...

    Anybody got any used NECKCAR parts?...

    I just got a new daily, and it needs a few things. Right now I know I need calipers, 9" pumpkin, couple of out of date seats, maybe some old belts, possibly some worn out shocks, and some other little nick nacks. :) Oh yeah, AND a boom tube! :) and a Ricky Bobby Wonderbread wrap too

    Brand new Harland Sharp roller rockers

    I made a deal with Harland Sharp to pass on a group purchase to the Buick community for a little while. (rather than doing a normal group purchase where everybody gets on board, then they get hammered with orders at once). I can do check, money order, or 'friends and family' on these. Right...

    3" SS dump with electric cutout, SS turn down tip and wireless remote control

    I bought this at least two years ago and have yet to put it on my GN. Since there's approximately a 0% chance I'll install it while it's cold, I'd rather have funds for my forged piston stuff. I had planned to use a toggle switch on my ashtray to actuate it and have the wireless for when I'm...

    Time to upgrade the last link in the noise chain. Who's got what? Not interested in anything bigger than 1.55 my roller cam is already too big, I needs no more overlap. :)

    Has anybody started at paypal or gofundme for Charlie yet?

    I'm thinking about listing a bunch of stuff on the board and donating a chunk of it to Charlie and his sister. Even though the hospital bills have stopped, I'm sure there's going to be bills piling up the next month or so from final expenses. I can't imagine my idea would add up to a whole lot...

    How to mark and cut a piece of tubing nice and square.

    A few weeks ago I was going to write a 'how to make the chinese Gbody SLIC actually fit' article. Turns out I spend all day working on it and it still doesn't fit right. While Making a custom up pipe so it could actually reach the throttlebody I thought this tip would be worthwhile to some...

    How I tossed my vacuum block and cleaned up intake

    i've always hated that vac block and how the solid lines snake and wrap around the engine. While I had my 4.1 out and apart to install my forged pistons I did a vac brake swap (see my how-to a few posts down), steel braided lines, and new rotors and bearings (how-to coming soon). While my...

    NICE hotair Chassis Service Manuals. Almost mint condition

    These things are nice. It looks like they've never seen a shelf or sunlight. I've never seen a shop book with bright white pages that's 33 years old before. Volume 1 looks like it was opened to (oddly enough) the page that shows how to replace the oil pickup screen. There's a small book mark...

    How to spend a BUNCH of time obsessing over what things weigh and how to fix it

    This is a step by step how-to of balancing rods and pistons at home with the minimal of expensive tools. Since I've had horrible luck with FM hypers in my 4.1... I decided to spend waaaay to much time making my own custom 'earlborwn' forged pistons. The original idea was to pull the engine...
