Thanks for the info. I called Arlington Machine and they don't have torque plates for these blocks.:(

That is the shop that was referenced in older posts as well. Thanks for the info.

I recently relocated to the area and would like to know of any reputable machine shops with turbo Buick experience. Will likely need to have the crank turned and mains aligned bored and bore/hone cylinders. I have searched and found some older posts on the subject, but nothing relatively...

Cool thanks. I just don't understand why three different manufactures use three different lenghts. I'm sure that the k1 are the best of the three budget rods but how do the other two stack up? I assume they would be better than stock right? Any one know if the cat or scat use arp fasteners...

I am looking in to replacing my rods and I have seen 3 different brands that sell them and they are all 3 different lengths. Full throttle speed sells 2 of them. The CAT h beam rods are 5.965 in length, and the K1 h beam rods are 5.960 in length. I also found a set of scat rods that are 5.970...

That is my current plan. I really haven't looked into the benefits of a roller cam. Some rough figures are rods,pistons and girdle around $1500 and $1000 for machine work,cam,bearings,gaskets ect. Is this a pipe dream or possibly reality?

Have you run it on a dyno yet to see what your hp numbers are?

If the stock crank is ok and just needs to be turned, would forged rods and pistons with the stock crank and a girdle be reliable for these goals?

I was thinking of going with a girdle already. I am also researching for a good machine shop in Florida with expierence on these engines. Thanks

I spun the no.6 rod bearing on my 86 T-Type. It is the orignal engine and has 90,xxx miles on it. I want to rebuild the bottom end on it but need some ideas. The car will not be driven very much and for the most part it is basically stock. I am going to budget for around $2500 for the...

I am interested in the ostrich. How much? I e-mailed Moates he said to try the start offset 0X8000 and end at 0XFFFF. Does this sound right?

I might be going out to Orlando to the Central Fl GN club meet up this Saturday if we don't go to see the new Bourne movie. But, we've got a lot going on Sat. so Dade City might work out better for us.

It is an aftermarket chip from Precision Turbo. What are the chip definitions?

I am just begining to learn chip tuning for these cars and I just want tinker around and try to improve on the chip I already have in the car for now. I would eventually like to to incorporate w/b correction into one if I could. I also read some threads on the sy/ty forums and that sort of...

Thanks, I'll check with him.

I have purchased an adapter from Moates to install a 27sf512 chip into my ecu and I am trying to burn a program onto this chip with no sucess. The program that I am trying to burn onto the 27sf512 is a program I took off of a 2732a chip. I am using a moates flash and burn and the errors I get...

I'm in Zhills also.

Thanks for the advice. I'll probably be in contact with you regarding info on understanding the ecm. I already have a custom chip that was burned for my setup by Precision Turbo and Engine a few years back that has worked very well. I'll be using that as a base to get started. I am in no...

I have a custom chip that has a scanmaster fast update rate and I was wandering if there was a way to datalog with Tuner Pro in the same speed as the scanmaster. If I look at the values on my scanmaster, they update about 3 times faster than the values on Tuner Pro. How can I make them match...
