I have had my GN since 7-06.
The engine had a spun bearing. “Conley’s Performance Buick” did a lot of the upgrades when I first bought the car.
Transmission was rebuilt by J.D Brooks in Cat Spring TX. Jan. 2008.
Engine rebuilt by Keel Automotive and Machine (Clete and Dave) in...
Black Cherry
The color is Black Cherry. It was painted before I bought it.
Me and Sandra enjoy going to the Kemah car show and the drag strip in Baytown. I have not raced it in three monts. I was warned at Baytown that if I break 11.50 I will be banned until I get a roll cage. No cage for...

93 octane w/methonal injection, 23 lbs boost.
Suspension mostly stock. Alum. lower control arms.

Timing at wot in 1st and 2nd 18.6 to 22.9 until shift into 3rd at 63 mph.
Timing at 20.7 till end of pass.
Boost set at 23 lbs.
Launched at 3000 rpm, not sure of boost
Would advancing timing get better launch and e/t.
TE 63 turbo...

Just got my GN back from JD in Cat Spring Tx. He rebuilt trans with bigger and better stuff. Was cruising down Hwy. 6 when I spot a black Mustang going the opposite way. To my amazement the Mustang makes a "U" turn and pulls along side. I was doing 45mph and he started slowing down. I slowed...
Just replaced laptop for my direct scan. Bad port on the old one.
Had friend Randy drive so I could monitor the laptop.
Cruising 65 mph on IH-45 when beautiful new black GT pulls along side.
Windows blacked out, 3" duals and the GT sounds good.
I just turned up boost to 23 lbs getting ready...
