I have a gen VII data cable will it work with a thruster system as well? I can't find a thruster cable listed in the accel catalog, only gen VII versions of different lengths. I assume so and will try it out tomorrow. I have had to use gen VII software to adjust things in the thruster software...

http://www.turbobuick.com/forums/parts-sale/325098-86-87-lc2-motor-86-87-short-block-brf-trans.html I sent this guy some money for a motor he had for sale. Arranged shipping to be picked up from his house and everything. Talked to him a couple times on the phone and was in email contact...

the big stuff has some neat ouptut like a second pump turn on setting and the two step. Do these still work with the typical adapter harness for the turbo 6, do you need to add wires straight from the big stuff box, or do you lose some of these functions with the V-6 waste spark setup? I have a...

Where can I send a small block chevy V8 gen 6 box to get modded to use an IPU pickup so we can use the MSD distributor instead of having to use an HEI? I'd prefer not to use Accel as I don't think they support the Gen 6 anymore.

Have a friend going to school in the phoenix area. We just put a new motor in the car right before he left a few weeks ago, he has maybe 500 miles on it. Bone stock rebuild. Wiseco pistons, HV oil pump,and ARP studs and bolts for durability, but that is it. He is running a Translator and LT1...

Have a water damaged one with some rusty pins, looking for a good replacement before this one dies. To save you the trouble I'll pay $45 for one shipped to Dallas, Texas 75209. Otherwise we will start looking to do the 87 conversion.

Brand new in box MSD 62152 ignition. Customer backed out of the install. He had it too long to return it so is trying to get as much money back out of it as possible. Will work on virtually any waste spark ignition setup. Popular on the Ford Mod motors and Mitsubishis, as well as other cars with...

Can't find the thread where I saw it, but putting a hot air back together tonight and did the mod to the heatshield/turbo support. Made stabbing the oil drain line alot easier. Highly recommended.

I have a new one ordered through my GM dealer, but it has not arrived yet. they had to order it through a discontinued source so supplies will be limited anyway. For future reference anyone had luck finding a generic grommet to fit the turbo drain hole in the intake? I can seem to find ones...

83 carb/turbo t type The original TPS sensor had a broken plunger that just fell aprt. I replaced it with a new one. Upon testing it it reads .77 per spec, but the voltage reading actually goes down as the throttle is opened to zero and stays there. Shouldn't it go up? Top wire has 5 volt...

I just built a 2.5 mandrel bent downpipe for a 83 carbed car for $45. very similar to the 84-85 hot air cars. I started out with an 84 GN, so I know how hard it is to find upgraded parts for them. more details in the before black section. hotair downpipe article Greg Kring Arlington...

I recently have been working on a 83 turbo carbed car for a customer. The car is in good shape with a recent rebuild of the motor and the trans. Customer was looking for some upgrades as well as some general tuning to get a "little" more out of his car. I figured the best upgrade for his...

I'm getting an unknown file type error when trying to upload my calibration disk for the new sensor on my older FAST system. I'm running the DOS based software. Any ideas before I call FAST tomorrow? Greg Kring

Just got a replacement wideband for my older FAST system in today. Problem is I told Harry at Precision the wrong serial number off the box. Can I still use the sensor with its matching calibration disk or is there really something in the box that it has to be setup for? I would think the...

Looking at putting a late model Hemi with 5 speed automatic into my next project now that the Buick is gone. Can a Big Stuff or XFI control an electronic trans and a dual plug v-8? I'd hate to have to go with an AEM system, and am not sure even it can control a trans. The dual plug setup on...

The adapter box MSD is fine and all, but it seems to interfere with the wiper arms a little, and looks bad with the extra plugs hanging out of it. However does anybody have a picture of one out of a box so I can hard wire a DIS box to the coil. My old car (now sold) was done this way. I thought...

Had one die on me last weekend. Air fuel readings stuck at 15.9 and not moving. Normally we swap to a new one and load the calibration (AKA moneymaker) disk to get them talking to each other again. Since this sensor had little run time on it I was going to swap O2 and ECM from my other car to...

Have an old Haltech F3 (not on the Buick) which is reading max boost and minimum temp at all times. Not ready to go through the hassle and expense of upgrading, even though this system is way outdated. Anyone have a pile of old ones in a box they want to sell or know a place I can send our ECM...
