My 1985 TTYPE needs a new home. I do not have the time nor dedication to put into her what she deserves. She is a numbers matching 83k mile 3 owner car. Garage kept her entire life. I am looking for $6000. Now to the specifics She is not currently running. The engine is good. I was in the...

Back in 92 when I first got my 87 gn, I lived at the track every chance I could get. My car was a stock t-top gn, save for a B&M shift kit and a Pit Bull chip (remember those?) I was a cocky 19-20 year old in the Navy, and I drove like it. I only used the PB chip at the track, as I didn't like...

Does anyone have any detailed accessory bracket pics? I am in the home stretch of an 8 month rebuild and I missed a few details on my before pics. I know I can sit there for a few hours and get them situated properly, but I figured I would check here first. I am actually down to 3 brackets.

This SHOULD be my last request for help before the car is done. At least the engine lol. I have 2 brackets I do not remember where they go. In the picture below they are the two on the left. Again, any and all assistance is greatly appreciated!

Does anyone have a detailed picture of the location of the bolts for the intake manifold? The long bolt is obvious, behind the egr, and 2 of the double ended bolts I recall for the turbo bracket. I cannot remember where the other bracket bolts go as it has been a while since I disassembled it...

Should I load the oil and water pump before mounting on the block, or mount the cover first then load the water and oil pump? Thoughts, experiences, and why or why not? Thanks guys!

Just a little tip if you are using new bolts and want to clean out the threads. I was searching for a 7/16 - 20 to chase the threads in the block for the heads. No one carried it outside a set, and Damn near everything else on this engine is metric. So we cut two lines on two of my old head...

I have the thicker flanged connector from my original turbo, and the replacement copper flat gasket. Which is the best one to use?

I have figured out most of them, thanks to this sitehttp://www.gnttype.org/numbers/rpo.html My list shows as follows: AG1 a duster 6way power front split bench AM6 3 pass front split bench AU3 elect door locks A01 tinted windshield A31 power windows BC3 deluxe instrument panel BD1...

I have a stock 85 t. Going in are the following : Ta33c 42.5 lb injectors Walbro 340 Adjustable fuel pressure regulator 150a power master alt Fuel hotwire kit Caspers fuel injector harness Caspers alternator harness Newish timing cover with high flow oil pump and new water pump Egr block off...

Anyone using them? Any thoughts? I have a set of 20 year NOS arms I bought years ago for my 87 that I never used. Put them in my 85 just after my turbo blew, thinking it would be fixed sooner lol. What can I expect from them?

So I disconnected the tb from the turbo to prep for the ta33c that's going in. I knew the turbo was blown, hence the reason I am doing this mild upgrade. But DAMN! I need to drop the pan and check for pieces. Wow.

Quick question. Melling's website only lists one pickup for the 85 regal, the 20-is6. 86-87 they list the 20-is2 for the turbo cars. Can I use the 20-is6 I purchased on my 85 ttype?

I have the champion egr block off plate, but I didn't get the plug along with it. I've read that there are no off the shelf parts that can be used to plug the other end, is this true? If so, what is everyone using? Thanks!

I have the Hotchkiss uppers, the bbody spindles and the 1le rotors. Does anyone know the part number to order a reman set of calipers for this conversion? Besides what I already have, and the pads and inner/outer bearings, what else would I need? I've been looking online and I can't seem to...

My turbo went on my 85 ttype. In removing the turbo, I figured 80k+ this car deserved a nice update. Prior owner had a hack mechanic who cracked the casing for the oil pump by using a wrong length bolt to connect the oil filter adapter. So I got a new timing cover and pump, new water pump, blue...

Yes TWO non runners. My daughter's 2001 Neon EX threw a rod. Knew a guy with a 2002 SXT with body damage and a blown transmission. Get it to my house and the engine has ZERO compression. Doesn't even blip the tester. Not wasting my time. But there are good parts on each. Sxt has decent interior...

I bought my first turbo regal, an 87 GN t-top car back in 92. I was the third owner. I was young, stupid, etc. When the engine blew at just over 100k I parked it and started taking it apart. She came with me to 3 homes, and when we came to our current home in 2002 I parked the gn on the side...

My 85 ttype is getting a mild build with ta33c, fuel hot wire, walbro 340, blue top injectors and a new 140a alternator. I was going to go with RJC gaskets, until I read the directions for heat and retorque 10 times. Getting to the passenger head under the turbo is a pain once, not doing it...

I have the opportunity to purchase a set of stock C5 wheels, 17 front and 18 rear, for a very good price. I have read the spacers I would need for proper fitment are 1.5 front and 2 in the rear. Thats a bit more spacing than I want to try. Anyone done this before? The car will have SSM lowers...
