I'm in need of the chrome trim strip which is situated in the dash, which runs horizontally in front of the passenger's seat. Anyone parting out a car, or who has one in good shape, please let me know. Thanks, Jeff

Got my t type back from Jimmy 2 weeks ago, Also got the precision torque converter and rebuild, canvassed the group and everyone said "take it to jimmy". I trailered the car 3 hours to get it to jimmy and it was the best decision I have made with this car. I didn't think my tranny was "that...

Thanks carl for the explanation. The problem isn't with my t type but with the boat. Maybe some here has an idea. It's driving us nuts. It's a ski boat with a fuel injected 454. sits under a dog house. has run perfect for 12 years this summer seems to be vapor locking when it heat soaks. I...

Hey guys, Can someone explain to me the purpose of the vacuum source on top of the fuel pressure regulator. I know we check or set the fuel pressure with the line off and then when you put the vacuum line back on the pressure drops but why, and what purpose does that serve. what would...

I'm taking it to him next week. Thanks everyone for the recommendations. He seems like a great guy from our conversations on the phone, sounds like he works pretty hard to taylor your tranny for your needs. It sounded like he is having landlord trouble and mentioned after october he was...

Thanks Brian, you were the first one I thought of when this started going down. I needed to change my profile, we moved about a year and 1/2 ago out of michigan, we are across lake michigan now in northern wisconsin. So, thanks for the offer but we are a little ways apart now. I canvassed...

Jimmy's it is. Thanks guys, I will call him today. I really appreciate the feedback. I hate letting this thing out of my sight or anyone else working on it, but transmissions are PFM (pure F'ing magic) to me and it's time to hand it over to a professional, so thanks for the recommendations...

Thanks, I was checking out the vendor links, which is janis associated with? Which others do you guys recommend? I don't doubt this guys diagnosis, I was suspecting what he had told me but would really like to go with a good reputable tranny from the buick community. Thanks again Jeff

Hey guys, My tranny is shot, needs a rebuild. I don't want to take it to a local shop, have heard to many horror stories about rebuilds. I am near oshkosh wisconsin, no buick shops up this way. Does anyone know of or can anyone recommend a buick tranny guy in the milwaukee or chicago area...

Didn't get to drive the car much this summer but noticed everytime i did and backed it out of the garage it sounded like rubbr bands stretching. Then the last few times I have driven it when I park it and shift from drive to park I have a rattle, sounds like the exhaust rattling, only lasts...

I did it last spring in my garage. Took a total of about 3 hours, like someone said remove the crossover pipe, drop the pan, may need to turn motor over to get it to clear the crank(I had to). the rear main seal, you can also do then this was very easy. If you do a search for the procedure...

I used to live in south east michigan until last year and I think you will find most of the guys from that area frequent the great lakes section as apposed to the midwest section. You might have better luck posting your request in that section. Good luck with your search for a GN

I also bought archies downpipe and exhaust last fall, was part of my winter project and it fits great, someone asked about clearance, I got antsy and put the downpipe on before I was done replacing my motor/trans mounts. mine were original on my 135,000 mile car. needless to say the downpipe...

I know its a stupid question, but with my luck, I am going to ask anyway. Like the title states, I am getting ready to install a new oil pressure gauge and before I break the sender I thought I would ask if there was a trick to getting the sender off the block. I am refering to the sender just...

So what is the real difference between a 44, 49 or the 3255. I've been on the precision site and read the charts, but what do the differences mean on the car, on the street or strip? Thanks jeff
