Here is a picture of it. How is this installed?

I just noticed my fuel tank has been patched, so I am looking to replace. I found one online (see link below) from gbodyparts.com which has options to add on a hot wire kit and Walbro fuel pump. Is it advisable to add on the aftermarket sending unit and tanks straps for $138 more? Any...

Egr valve will be removed. Is there a write up on removing this? I was thinking what do I do with the sensor and the line? And if I do remove can I disable egr in computer? So it doesn't run rough and the light is on all the time.

Thanks for all the advice guys. It is really appreciated. Really new to these engines and not really comfortable with them yet. This forum is awesome to have to get input from guys that have "been there and done that" with these engines! Kevin

I am thinking about pulling my engine out of my 87 Buick GN to replace oil pan gasket, valve cover gaskets, head gaskets, etc.. What would you recommend I do while I have the engine out of the car? It has under 50,000 on the stock engine and I have plans to make this into a 11 second car. I...

The ultimate goal would to make it a 11-12 second car. Im not one to go to the track, but I like the power there when I want it. I would only drive to car to shows/cruises or on sunny warm dry days in the summer. Stays up in the winter. I guess if the things I am doing to it are "stock" to...

I know I need more than headers, but these are a part of my planned upgrades. Valve springs, high performance chip, fuel pump hot wire kit, torque converter, etc..

Thanks for the information guys. Sending it back and saving for the TA headers. Want to make my GN faster......

Is this a good deal? Looks to be over 50% off and I am looking into headers for my GN. http://www.protuninglab.com/hds-gn86-t1.html Kevin

Thanks for the reply guys! I am going with the holddown kit from weber power products to save some funds for the next upgrade. Appreciate your valuable suggestions

Will these HD Rocker Arm shafts fit on my 87 Buick Grand National with stock motor? Changing to Comp Cams 980-12 and want to replace stock shafts with HD shafts. will also replace the valve stem seals since I am getting the blue smoke upon start up and not while running...

Saving for the upgrades

I appreciate all the info you are sharing. I'm excited about "upgrading" my GN, but I want to do it the correct way and with this forum I can.

How does the alchy system work? Is it injected into the system all the time?

Turbotweak offers performance chips with matching 60lb injectors. What is diff between flow matched and non matched flow injectors? Also which chip should I get street or alcohol?

Yes, this is one of other mods I plan on doing. I am just getting a price sheet together and create a budget. Other mods include: scanmaster, valve springs, injectors, performance chip, external trans cooler, torque converter,etc...

Thinking of purchasing the Racetronix G77 fuel pump installation kit. This a good setup for the 87 Buick GN? THanks, Kevin

That totally worked!! Thing is it is a new cig lighter. Should there be a rubber washer or gasket between the lighter and the hole in the dash? Not sure why it's shorting out. But now the security light blinks constantly??
