Especially need a lower speedometer cable for a 1987 GN with analog speedometer, but also interested in an upper one too. Not looking for the replacement one piece or one that has the ends marked up with vice grip scars. If you can help please let me know.

Could be on the right track. Is the PPG pure black? Anyone know what paint product or manufacturer GM used as a supplier for their paint in 1987?

Many places sell paint that matches the paint code. The problem is the paint may not match the car because of the type of tints that are used in a particular brand of paint despite the code. I was more or less looking for a brand of paint that someone knows is a close match to original without...

I have a 1987 GN with original paint that I would like to do some touch up on. I had a body shop do some minor work a few years back and it looks brown under certain lights. I would like to fix this. What is the best choice of paint for a correct black that is as close to original as possible...

Anyone?

I have a set of reproduction OEM style bumper fillers that I would like to try and paint myself. What's the best way to do it? What products do I need? I would like to do it in single stage acrylic enamel or urethane unless I just shouldn't. Thoughts, tips?

Up to 2 degrees KR. Chip is for the car. Timing at 20* and 18*. Scanmaster.

I'm running stock boost. I get just a little bit of KR as it is with 93 octane pump gas and TT street chip. I was thinking the increased octane from the E85 may help with this is all. I don't plan to make any changes and don't want to do anything unsafe.

I have a stock 87 GN. The only changes from stock are a turbo tweak street chip and a 237 FPR. I have an E85 station near me. Could I get any performance increase if I run any E85 in the car without making any changes from stock or would it be harmful or detrimental? If I can run it, can I...

Thanks, I'm looking for a stock appearing turbo.

I'm looking for a good TA-49 with no issues. If you can help please let me know.

I swear my cruise control worked last time I checked, but today it didn't. Master switch on, hit the button on the end of the turn signal and nothing. Everything looks hooked up. Where do I start?

Anyone? I need to get this back together and working, but I need to confirm how it is supposed to go before I charge it up. I found the image below online and that appears to be how I have it installed see pic above (short end in 1st), but I keep reading conflicting info (long end 1st??)...

Maybe a picture will help. I colored the arrow on the old orifice tube. This is the way I have the new one installed with the arrow pointing toward the evaporator and the long end toward the condenser. It is installed in the portion of the tube coming out of the evaporator. The tube with the...

The only way I can get the orifice tube to go in is with the short end toward the driver's side and the long end toward the passenger side. The short end is pointing into the evaporator and the long end is toward the condenser. The direction of flow would be from the condenser into the...
