Yeah...The body on this one turned out to be too rusty to fix...Floors, quarters, rockers, doors rusted through bad...Decided to put the drivetrain in another car though...Haven't given up on Turbo Buick Power...Stay tuned - I'm sure I'll need advice...Thanks, Mike

Hey guys...Anybody need anything from an 1985 T-type? Mostly body and interior parts available...No engine, trans, or rearend...Let me know...Thanks! Mike

Thanks for the heads-up! Actually, I'm still trying to get the engine out of the car...Lotsa wiring and hoses...Sure hope I can remember how it all goes back...It seems like the harness wraps all the way around the engine from one side of the firewall to the other... Anybody got any ideas on how...

Well, it runs, but has 170,000 miles on it and it smokes a little...Doesn't seem to knock though and it starts up quick and idles good, so I'm guessing that it's a good candidate for a rebuild...The car seems pretty slow to me right now, however...the transmission probably could use a rebuild...

Yup...I bought the white 1985 T-type...Thanks for all the good advice...So who would you go to for the block work when you want good work, reasonable prices, and timely turnaround? Not sure any of the folks you mentioned meet that criteria...lol Thanks again! Mike

Thanks for the help! I've already started tearing into the car...Owning a turbo buick is gonna be an experience, I can tell...lol

Thanks, Bob... I just bought an 85 T-type (my first turbo Buick)... Is there a club in town or other resources? Would like to meet other turbo Buick owners and get ideas on how to make performance improvements... Seems like you guys know all the tricks! Any ideas are appreciated... Mike

Does anyone know of machine shops in the Kansas City area who are used to working with turbo buick engines? Need to do a rebuild shortly...Would like to find a shop that is experienced and dependable...Any recommendations would be appreciated! Mike

Where you located? I'm inb Raytown & very interested...816-665-7291...Mike

I have an 80' T/A also... First remove all the smog equipment and free up the exhaust - then start adding/changing things... My single best addition so far is the MSD 6AL ignition... When you're ready, Turbonetics can upgrade your turbo to a T3/T4 hybrid for about $700.00... Oh...Get a...

I've got a 1980 Trans Am with a 301T... It has never idled well and dies at every stoplight unless I rev the engine above 1,000 RPM... I just installed an MSD 6 BTM ignition thinking that might solve the problem, but it runs even rougher... Any suggestions on what might be the problem...
