    Torque SPecs for the Rockers

    I know this is a pretty old thread, but I am also putting together a TTA engine and would like to know the rocker arm torque. My Buick repair manual says 25 ft lbs for the GN engine, but this one has different heads and I wondered if WS6, above, ever did verify if the TTA needs 41 ft lbs. Can...

    Headgasket installation with Studs

    I almost forgot I have another question: is there any sealant I could/should put on the head gaskets? The heads were re-surfaced but the block is still in the car and has some small pitting around areas where the old Felpro 1000 gaskets had holes, etc. I cleaned up the block surface with some...

    Headgasket installation with Studs

    I know this is a pretty old thread, but I am in the process of replacing head gaskets on my '87 TurboT. I am using new GM bolts and original GM/Victor gaskets I got from GSCA. My only question is what to use for sealing the bolt threads. I had heard the Loctite 562 was good so I got some, but...

    remove idler pulley

    OK, I got the pulley off, just had to push a little harder on the breaker bar. Didn't find anything wrong with the pulley so I put it back on and still don't know what is causing the squeeking. Sounds like it is coming from the area of the crank pulley. All the forum discussions of squeeky belts...

    remove idler pulley

    I have an '87 T-Type that has a squeeky serpentine drive belt. I squirted water on the belt and it stopped squeeking for a short time. I replaced the belt but the squeek is still there. I looked online for how to diagnose squeeky drive belts and it sounds like I have a pulley misaligned. I...

    87 Turbo T Steering Wheel

    I got this as a spare for my 1987 Buick Turbo T, but have since sold the car. It is in good used condition but does show its age. It has some cracks in the leather along the top side as seen in the photo. The rest of the leather is in good condition. I cleaned it with Maguire's aloe leather...

    I have the pair of hoses from my old 84 GN for the hydroboost power steering/brake system. They are in good condition but I no longer have the car so don't need them. A pic is attached showing the hoses. Asking $20 plus shipping, or make an offer. Thanks for looking.

    Razor kit installation help

    I recently purchased an alky injection kit for my '87 Buick T-type. The kit was used and I did not receive any instructions except that the owner said it was essentially the same as a Razor kit. I can guess about how some of it is hooked up, but not all, and would appreciate if anyone has any...
