    engine oil cooler

    I will provide my own experience here. First your article probably concerns some car with a BB chevy ford or mopar and who knows what done to the engine heads and compression.

    Jegs 200r4 anybody run one?

    In my experience these transmissions do not stand up to the hp and toque the Buick makes. I have never found one to last long. They do not use a BRF valve body and do not have the correct clutch clearance and line pressures. Your best bet is someone who understands the performance of these cars...

    Need reputable engine builder near Columbus,Oh area

    That I will agree with. These engines are not like SB, they nee more care and attention given. It is also the reason you cant build them for 500 dollars like an SBC. They require a little more labor to check, recheck and verify and polish. I personally blue print every front cover and ensure...

    AN fitting and Teflon Tape

    No reason and no recommended to use Teflon tape or paste. I personally use a little of the EARLS lubricant when assembling my AN stuff or building the AN lines.
