How much is involved to install an electric fan setup off a GN onto a n/a 3.8 with no computer in an 83 Cutlass Supreme. Will the fan bolt right on? How is the fan controlled...electrically? Does the fan come on and stay on at the same speed or does it vary speed depending on temp?
I tried a...
Looking for Turbo Setup from 86-87 Turbo Regal. Exhaust manifolds, turbo, intercooler and piping. Basically entire setup minus intake, efi, etc.... Let me know what you have and send a picture or two if you can.
Thanks
I've been watching montess thread and others on the matter of converting n/a to turbo and am very interested. I have an 83 canadian built 3.8 in my cutlass with no computer from the factory. I have a edel intake and carb that I will be installing in the next couple of weeks. I was wondering if...
The edelbrock intake I got prescribes using Fel-Pro#1200 intake gaskets to install. Can someone explain to me what a valley pan gasket is for and if I need to use that as well? Is there any other gaskets/parts I will need to install this intake.
Thanks
I'm about to pick up a 4 barrel carb for my new edelbrock intake manifold. I was thinking of buying a new edelbrock 500cfm performer/thunder series carb (not too sure of the differences). I was wondering if anyone has used this carb, and if you guys have any other suggestions.
I just picked up an edelbrock performer intake and was thinking about getting the whole combo (carb/intake/cam). I was wondering if anyone has used the edelbrock cam and wondered if there is any machining of the heads involved in the installation or if it's just a straight swap? Please...
I know this isn't off topic but didn't know where to post. Does anyone know what an 87 turbo 3.8 is worth that has been sitting outside for years and doesnt run because of a faulty electric fuel pump?
Also, how hard (or expensive) is it to convert a n/a non-computer even fire 3.8 to a turbo...
In the book: V6 Performance by Pat Ganahl, they mention a turbo-kit made by kenne bell. Anyone ever heard of this or know if there are any out there somewhere?
Whats the best after market intake for a N/A non computer controlled 231? The three that I know of are: kenn bell, e brock performer, or the 4.1 swap. I'm not wondering whats the best bargain, but what offers the best performance with good street driveability.
Thanks much.
I have an 83 231 non-ccc. Usually runs great when driving normally, but when I hammer on the gas the engine make a intermittent knocking sound during acceleration. kind of like it's out of tune. It is tuned up correctly, with new wires and plugs. If you guys have any idea what this might be...
