Hey Everyone,
I am new to the Forum and I just bought my first 1986 Buick Grand National. I am 19 and have always loved the Grand National, and I would love to get this beast running in the mid 10s with a little room to expand later on if I wanted to. I have several friends who have no idea what a Grand National is, and especially don't realize it is a quick car. I have read through various threads on the Forum looking for some assistance with my setup but none of them really fit my situation. I have worked several summers and have around 10K set aside for this build. Any advice you guys could give me on building this would be greatly appreciated. The GN will be primarily driven on the street and occasionally taken to the track. The car is basically bone stock.
My current setup is as follows:
- Shift Kit ( Was installed in the car when I got it, Spins about 5ft of rubber when shifting from 1st to 2nd)
- 2.5 in Cat back exhaust with Flowmaster Mufflers. ( Installed when I got it)
Thanks!
