Hello all, We have all been there. Get started on a project and all the sudden life or family forces the latest project to the back burner. In my case we had pulled the motor to solve a falling oil pressure issue. Found that even with a girdled bottom end that I had flexed the crank enough to...

Well guys and gals, my mother lost her fight with leukemia (AML) on Jan 20, 2014. Today I am taking my daughter to see a lawyer to file for her divorce. There have been so many other WTF moments I can't even keep track. I keep going out to the garage and looking at my Gn in pieces and wonder how...

I purchased a turbo from him and had great communication on shipping, tracking #. He even added insurance (that I didn't think to ask for). I am very lucky he did as the post office tried to deliver it when no one was home so they took it back to their building. It hasn't been seen...

Well, found and purchased what looks like a great turbo for my '86 here on TB.com. Seller was great to deal with (DrewJ), provided tracking number and insured the turbo just in case (I didn't even think to ask for the insurance). Now I received the "we missed you" note on Monday, went to pick up...

Well I was going to just remove all the accessories and freshen up the look of the engine bay but after a visual inspection I found some oil leaks that I wanted to address. We got the engine out yesterday and this is what I found. Broken ring and the ring land was cracked. Glad I have an RJC...

I thought you folks would like to see the new EXTRA LARGE frame turbo! Packaging should be thought out VERRRRY carefully as well as the fuel system! I would think about 2lbs of boost should be plenty!:biggrin:

Well we are rolling at about 35mph next to a Black 2011 5.0, 6spd man, Brembo brakes and 3.73 gears. Mustang rows into 2nd and the revs come up (the new 5.0 has a 7k redline and sound good up there), pull the shifter down into Drive so we are ready! The Mustang get the jump and is screaming...

My best friend Craig and I took the Buick out to the local car show last night. I had the Gn at 18psi the Alkycontrol system was set ,but with a low tank under the hood. (reminder to myself to get more meth) Had a great time catching up and looking at all the local hotrods, after a couple of...

I just completed yet another headgasket replacement on my 86' and now I am getting no spark. Here is the list of things I have checked so far. 1: Crank sensor, had a lifetime warrante so I changer it out. Back probed the wires at the 3 wire plug and have good continuity through the plug. 2...

Well guys, one of my best friends was served with divorce papers on Thursday. I am trying to find some help for him. He has spent the last year doing more than I ever could to try to save his family life. I have read through the papers he was served and I cannot believe what she is trying to do...

Well guys I have used others write up's so here is how I put in the Bailey Enginering 2-step. First unplug the orange power wire under the hood. Then remove the PCM from the passanger side footwell kickpanel.

I have read everything that I can find on high NOx and see that the EGR is where it is brought down. I have also seen that mixing alcohol to the fuel (up to @ 30%) will bring it down. I am wondering if this is refering methanol or alcohol? If meth then I dont need anything but if I need to get...

I have been running the GN for about a year and a half now with the current set-up (see sig). I went to the track last Friday and made a pass all was going well but at about the 1000' the car didn't "feel" right so I lifted. It didn't want to run right (very slight miss) and running hotter that...
