    Looking for Recommendations for Spark Plug Type and Gap

    I checked the coils cold before I saw your post, they were all 11.8k. I'll do them again hot. I will also check the condition of the spark to see if any look worse then others. Thanks for the help.

    Looking for Recommendations for Spark Plug Type and Gap

    I'm looking for recommendations for what type of spark plug & gap people are running with Razor's Meth kit. Last time I drove it several years ago, whenever at WOT and +22 psi boost levels it would make a loud noise, throw an ignition type fault and then run like crap until I cleared the...

    ESC Question

    Thanks guys for chimming in......when I did the clone I also used the interior wiring harness so I could use the 82 TRSC dash and ECM. I also used the 82 Distributor and 82 knock sensor. I pretty much converted everything to 82 so it would be plug and play since I had the whole donor car. It...

    ESC Question

    I cloned my 1984 NA Buick to 1982 TRSC a few years ago. I used the 1982 rear end and trans. I also put the 1982 TRSC turbo, intake, exhaust and wiring harness onto the 84 long block. I realize it is not optimum to turbo the NA long block, but it's what i had at the time. I have it running...

    I Need a Recommendation for a New Boost Controller

    I'm in the market for a quality boost controller, it must be compatible with a TE-44 and an ATR external waste gate. I am also running Razor's Alky kit with methanol if that makes a difference.

    Questions about my CLONE.

    Hookup the EGR, T'd in a vacuum gage, set timing to 15. Vacuum gauge reads around 13 inches at 45 mph, drops to about 5 when letting off throttle. Is at around 2-3 at idle. During normal take off it is 2-5 then jumps to 13 around 45mph. Goes to zero over half throttle or so. When I got...

    Questions about my CLONE.

    I pulled the plugs today. I had AC R44T's in it, not sure why, but then again it's been in the garage for 5+ years. I had a new set of NKG UR5's, so I put them in gapped at 0.035. I drove it to work tonight and the majority of the knock is gone. I'll try to turn up the advance tomorrow and...

    Questions about my CLONE.

    15 degrees BTDC wow.....I can hear my knock, so it's real. I originally set it to 10 degrees, but it was knocking under normal conditions. Then I set it back to factory at 8 degrees and it was a lot better, but it wouldn't take anything over 1/2 throttle. It would be nice to get it up to 15...

    Questions about my CLONE.

    Well I've been through a couple tanks of gas. The idle is slightly better. I noticed the idle solenoid is not hooked up. I can't find any unconnected connectors. Is this for A/C cars only? My 82 didn't have A/C. I hooked a wire to my brake switch to energize the idle solenoid. The...

    Questions about my CLONE.

    I just put 82 TRSC on the road. Going down the interstate it's turning 2800 rpm's at 65mph. Its got the TH350 trans. It's sucking some fuel. The trans is shifting thru all three gears fine. It's a little early (3rd by 25-30mph). I believe it has the stock 3:08 rear also. Can someone...

    When do you need Razors 2 Nozzle Upgrade

    Thanks guys for chimming in, I appreciate the input. I thought my mods might put me in the arena to require 2 nozzles................but embarrassingly for me that's not the case. Compared to you guys, my car isn't modded hardly at all. I ordered a single nozzle system from Julio right...

    When do you need Razors 2 Nozzle Upgrade

    Razor, I'm looking to upgrade my DIY 2 stage alky system for your more robust system. Looking at my signature, would you recommend the 2 nozzle upgrade or would 1 nozzle work for my setup? If one nozzle is fine, when would you recommend customers upgrade to 2? TIA

    Is this MAF Drop-Out???

    Clark6, I'm not getting any codes, battery voltage is constant during event. I have a new spare ECM from NAPA, I could put it in and try it for a while. Mike Licht, Switches 1 thru 3 are ON, 4th is OFF. Been using this setup for several years with zero issues. Thanx for the input guys.

    Is this MAF Drop-Out???

    I have an intermittent problem with my car cutting out under full throttle blasts. It feels like I turned the key off and it won't recover until I let off. Very weird. I immediately suspected the battery cable, it looks fine. Last night at the track it cutout in the last 100ft on my first pass...
