    Representing at TurboBuick.com National Event

    Eric You took a Hot Air car and de-tuned it to run an 8:49 class. As far as I am concerned you represented us Hot Air guys well. Mine probably wouldn't run a 9:49.

    tail lights and instrument panel lights not working

    Check the wires that are located near the parking brake and left side kick panel. My tail lights quit working and there was a brown wire broken. This happened several years ago. I do not remember if it involved the dash lights.

    Asking for a friend

    Coil/Module Go with the 86/87 setup. It is also a good idea to go with the 86/87 ecm and LS1 Mass Air and translater. Casper's, Turbo Tweak and G Body Parts should be able to help.
