I've been registered for years but haven't a Turbo car for a long time. I have the 200-4R trans in my `65 small block Skylark that I removed from an `87 T-Type but it has a GM remanufactered sticker on it and according to the valve body code it appears to actually be for an `86 Monte Carlo. It...

Yeah! Count me in. Thanks Mark.

I'm in. Bill

Yeah Brian!! Count me in! Thanks! Bill

I'm in

The `87 T-Type I bought new did a 14.11 in the 1/4 fighting for traction. Don't remember the mph but it seems like it was upper 90's. This was a long time ago and it was done absolutely bone stock including those worthless Eagle GT's. Those things would get stuck on a cigar butt. I do remember...

Mine has an idler pulley on it that bolts directly in place of the a/c compressor. Don't know where it came from because it was on the car when I got it, but it appears to be a perfect fit. I don't need it because I am planning to go back to a/c. PM me if you're intersted. Bill

Just switch sides and twist them back until they're straight again :biggrin: :D Bill

Thanks! Certainly not for the budget minded but they look like the best way to go. Bill

Poly mounts? I'd like to hear more about these and where to get them. Bill

It wasn't really popping, though. I really, really appreciate everyone's responses on this, but I feel I should point out that I have already removed the driveline from the car and parted the rest of it out so I can't really try any of it at this point. I have decided to rebuild it before...

Crestview, 40 miles east of Pensacola, but it won't do much good now, I have removed the engine from the car. Thanks. Ever get out to Holt? Bill

Thanks for the welcome, Jim. I don't care for those big wheels, either, but it would be a boring world if we all liked the same thing so I don't house any disrespect for those who do like them. After watching that video, I thought it would be a perfect opportunity to ask about the problem I had...

As you can see, I'm new here, and new to the turbo cars. I had a brand new `87 T-Type. Should've kept it, but that's another story. Anyway, I got the urge again and since the original driveline in my `65 Skylark is exhausted, I bought another turbo car to use as a donor. Another `87 T-Type. It...

Is this what is refered to as "overboost"? My TB was doing this before I took it apart. Bill
