All, I've got a transmission from a Riviera T-type available from my '85 Toronado: From a 1985 (I believe) Buick Riviera T-Type (*will not ship*, rebuildable core) Lost every gear but 1st and reverse with no warning. Could be a governor failure as I lost the speedometer input at the same...

I know the '83 and earlier and '84 and later use different bumper fillers, and that they are different around the grille area. Will an '84 grille AND '84 bumper filler fit on an '83, or do I have to change the whole header panel?

I had someone that weighs 300 lbs with arms the size of my legs help me :)

One of the original bars is missing and has been since I bought the car. Considering I got it for a song, I can't complain. Turbofish, thanks, glad to hear it's only a 2dr/4dr thing. I shouldn't have too much trouble finding replacements then.

Hi all, I'm working on fixing up my '83 Regal T-type. My next job was going to be to replace the trunk torsion bars (the trunk doesn't stay up). I have one of the original bars, and I pulled a set off an '84 4 door Cutlass that I junked, but they don't fit. The "U" end of the bar isn't wide...

Yep, 8.5" 3.73 in the '84 Hurst/Olds, '85-'87 442; 8.5" 3.42 in '84-'87 Turbo Regals. '83 H/Os and Turbo Regals are unique in that they came with the 200-4R transmission but 7.5" rears.

Third the TCC solenoid problem, my Dad's Riviera does the same thing. What you're probably feeling is 1st, 2nd, lock, 3rd, 4th. On my Toronado, the 3->4 **** is incredibly harsh if it happens with the converter locked. Shakes the whole car.

Yep, a few models got the 200-4R in 83... the T-type and the Hurst/Olds are the two that I know about. My '83 T-type had a 200-4R in it from the factory. It still does, but it's not the original unit.

Do you have manual first? I've had at least one trans lose reverse and it ended up being the lo-rev clutches. I think the diagnostic procedure is to put it in D, wait for it to shift into 2nd, and then, kick it down to 1st and see if you have engine braking.

Where are you located? I've got an '84 RWD cutlass with a 3.8 that I'm parting out in Johnstown, PA. If you wanted the block you could have it for free. I sure don't need it.

Mine weighed 125lbs (according to the shipping manifest).

That's kind of a long way away... nothing any closer?

I do believe my 180,000 mile 325-4L just kicked the bucket on me. 2nd is slipping terribly and it's flaring on the 2->3 shift. I've got a Turbo Riviera transmission lying around that I'd like to have rebuilt to replace it. Does anyone know of a decent transmission shop in the Western PA...

I had a similar problem when I replaced the TH250C in my '84 Cutlass with a 200-4R from an LG4 Monte. The 200-4R had a nasty annoying buzzing sound when in gear and stopped (foot on the brake). It was typically fluid level related; if it was a pint low it buzzed in all gears, if it was spot on...

49-blues, no clue on the mileage on the 4.1, I was hoping to get $250 for the whole thing. It has the heads, timing cover & water pump, and the rotating assembly in it. Turbomonte, Thermostat housing & pass side exhaust manifold off the N/A 3.8? $20 plus shipping and let me know if you want...

Money's on the way, please let me know when you ship & give me a tracking # if you could...

If you think you can get it to me by Friday, give me a way to pay you and I'll take it.

I sent you an email a few minutes ago...

The only number I can find on the 4.1 block is 2551429. Isn't that one # too short? It does have provision for a knock sensor (which is still there), I don't know if that tells you anything. I also found a turbo crank in my garage, casting #229. Definitely has the rolled fillets on both the...

I'm looking for a good/used D5. I need it to be in VA (zip 20112) by Friday afternoon (10/21/05). Can pay via credit card or paypal. Anyone got one?
