I'm am back in the 3800sc scrub again. Yay! I always regretted selling my 99 regal GS six years ago. Swore I would pick up another one, and have now done so. I grabbed a Lille used one owner 2004 with 43 k on it. Car runs and drives like new, and if am thrilled with it! I am already...

Last weekend my car went crazy and started bucking and backfiring with even light throttle. It would idle, but even touch the throttle and it would surge and act ALL KIDS OF CRAZY! I left it on the side of the road and walked 3.5 miles home....Ugh. Got the wife and another vehicle and went...

I've spent so much time and energy on getting my car right mechanically(beastly), that it was great to do something to simply make the car more enjoyable to cruise around in.......as we used to say in high school, TUNAGE! I have tunes, and they jam. I didn't even bother with trying to get a...

Set of tubular UMI control arms, maybe 1k miles on them. $80+ shipping. Extender chip for alky and 60 lb injectors. $50 shipped.

I just want to take a minute to express my appreciation for the support that I have received from Lonnie. I've hit some bumps in the road with a trans/converter combo that I have been trying to get together, including some issues that have nothing to do with Lonnies trans or parts, and in fact...

I recently switched from a stocker driveshaft to a 3.5 inch steel shaft, and now my loop won't clearance it. I've got the UMI loop from Full Throttle. Anyone else run into this problem, and is there another manufactured loop out there that will beter accomodate the larger shaft? Or am I...

I'm having a 3.5" DS built, and won't be needing the stocker any more. Anyone in the area looking for one? Mike in Kissimmee

I just installed a freshly built trans (Diers Stage 2) and a PTC 2800 lockup converter in my car tonight. Everything may be A - OK, but I just want to know if this is normal..... Cruising at about 60 mph, I noticed that every time I let completely off the gas, and then gently pressed the...

Doing some repair right now, and one thing I want to correct is my door locks where 80% of the black is worn away. Any recs for proper reaint on the door locks? Prep? And changes to the finish?

Rolling in second gear this morning, stepped into it a bit and the DRs were just starting to howl a bit and....BAM!!!!! Lost everything. Car was freewheeling until I could get off the road. I sat there and ran thru all gears...nothing. Completely toast. Had to tow it home. So, what broke...

TE-60 was rebuilt by Precision and has about 2000 street miles on it. 4" inlet, 2 1/2 outlet. This turbo runs extremely well and makes a lot of power, as evidenced in my sig below. Precision upgraded the wheels when they rebuilt it, but don't ask me specifics because I don't remember. I just...

When I'm WOT running in 3rd gear, I'm getting a sound from under the hood like a popcorn machine, or a bunch of pi$$ed off bumble bees in a jar. It's not registering as knock, and the car pulls hard right thru it.. but what that hell is it???????? Showed up all of a sudden. Here's what I've...

Interesting problem to have, but I can't get boost below 23 lbs with my 6776DBB. I was curious if anyone else has had a similar issue, especialy with THIS turbo. I've got the same HD actuator on this turbo that I ran on my TE60, and with that turbo I had no problem gettin boost down around 18...

I may be delusional here, and my issue may be related to something else, but has anyone else that is running a BB turbo, particulatly the 6776, notice any more heat being generated? I'm melting crap and my car keeps smelling HOT after a good drive. Most recently I noticed that the...

I'm wanting to revisit my car insurance now, looking at the money I've got piled into my machine at this point, I'm getting a bit paranoid. Thinking about what it would cost to start this process all over, and what my insurance company would likely give me in the event of a total loss...

I'm looking for some suggestions here on rear springs/shocks. My car is fine on smooth road, but hit some of the less-than-perfect asphalt that this area is littered with and my rear end wants to jump and hop all over the place. Several years back I instally Kirbans HD rear springs, which...

As much as I hate to, I need to sell my Regal. New company car, and not enough room in the garage. This car has been very good to me, and anyone needing some reliable transportation (with some nice power) would be a good fit. I'm in Kissimme/Orlando, and it needs to go, SOON. 1999 Regal...

Well, got the first dyno results on my new build. Stroker motor with 210 roller cam, ported irons, ported intake, 60lb injectors, pump gas and Razors alky, and for now, a TE-60. Results: 546 rwhp, 556 tq. This was at 21 psi, which is about all I would want to run on a 93 degree day, LOL...

My old system I am removing is an SMC -old style- with dual nozzles. But with the new build KDK is doing on my stroker, I am changing everything around anyway. My old Mease up-pipe is currently bored at 9 O'clock and 3 O'clock for twin nozzles. With your new kit should I just block off one of...

Rolling down 95 today just south of Daytone (Sunday) I saw a GN being trailered behing a black SUV. Said "NOS" in the back window. Slicks and some fibergalss, looked like an all out racer. Who was it??
