    Gainesville 6-11-03

    I'll be there on the 13th for Friday night street legals. Not in the Buick though :( As for the Buick, I finally started tinkering with her again. Will probably be pulling the motor in a few weeks.

    Replacing control arm bushings

    So with that tool I will be able to replace all the control arm bushings?? I thought it was just for the bushings on the top of the pumpkin.

    Replacing control arm bushings

    Finally working on the Buick some more. The rear end is out. What's the easiest way to replace the bushings in the control arms? Do they need to be pressed in/out?

    Buick with plate "WICKED T" in Orange Park/Middleburg?

    Raced this guy last night. I was in the TA on my way back from the track with my drags and skinnies on. He had 2 or 3 passengers. We went from a stop and I took him like a civic. Then we went from a low roll and he got ahead on the start but I came back and passed him. 3 or 4 carlengths by the...

    I put down some times in the Trans Am. 13.319@104 isn't too bad for being bone stock to the paper filter and with 2.73s. :) Ok, ok... so the drags and skinnies helped out a bit. :D Still trying to learn my launching technique in the auto... even with the nitto's on the back, I couldn't...

    Florida Hot Air Cars

    Does it count if it's in pieces in the garage?? :D Currenty my 85 is hot air, but I think we will be going with an intercooled engine for it.

    Intercooled conversion options

    Well I'm in the process of a total rebuild. I want to build the bottom end as solid as possible. How fas to I want it? I want low 11s (or better), but I'm beginning to doubt the possibility of it with this engine.

    Intercooled conversion options

    So with the TM kit I could still make the kinda power made by the 86/87s? Only downside I see now is that the turbo size will be limitted by the clearance with the hood. I don't suppose there's much of a remedy for that. What's the price range on the TM kits? Also about the Ford IC... What...

    Intercooled conversion options

    Re: intercooler conversion options If the throttle body is relocated to the front, could a few (maybe more than a few) custom brackets and whatnot relocate the turbo to the front as well? I just don't like the idea of the long pipe crossing the engine bay between the turbo and the...

    Intercooled conversion options

    Well, I hear alot about this Jay guy from Turbo Motion, and I see how pleased everyone is with his kits, but I can't find much info on the kits themselves. What do they include? Price range? From what I have gathered there are at least a couple different kits, and if I'm not mistaken, one of...
