    Want a GNX dash and have $1100 to spend?

    So somehow, the seller says he's got $1600 in a $695 non-GNX dash? Should have bought a new genuine OEM GNX dash for $3000-$3500. Much better investment for the fortunate few looking for one.

    did ya see this???

    Oh, the repro GNX suspension is still available... but only at predatory mega-gouged pricing, and from the very same buzzards who've made their legacy by market-jacking TRs & related parts. Now, fools must buy it piece-by-piece, & at Plutonium prices.

    C.N.P Coil Near Plug/ Coil on Plug

    Bruce Plecan Bruce Plecan accomplished the COP conversion several years before his death, and was constantly busy advancing GM's initial concept very intensely to ever higher levels. It's safe to say very few molecules of energy escaped Bruce Plecan's combustion chambers...

    TA49 or TA60?

    VERY surprised that a 49 is even around any more??? They're so... 1987-ish. Nostalgic, yes, but "antiquey" & needless. The Limit LT-61s from John Craig, the 6152s from Fullthrottle (as well as other similarly sized non-BB & even larger BB-turbos) have proved over & over years ago...

    TurboIndian's 42-76 eye candy...

    Long live the very few left like Joe Mondello Joe Mondello & Co. have taught much to many. Joe Mondello & I first met on a shared Olds engine project in the '60s. What I liked most & remember above all else about Joe Mondello is his personal credo: "We make HORSEPOWER, not...

    Best Oil Filter?

    Oils Well That Gets Filtered Well Replace the cooler. If you pass the cooler on to someone, tell them its history so they know they'd be using it with full disclosure, at their own risk. Best oil filters for the Buick LC2 TR? Baldwin/Wix/Purolator are used by more race teams than...

    6776 Ball bearing turbo report

    No seat-of-the-pants difference at all between the 2 with this turbo. Only the Chrondeks would tell if the extreme top-end mph improved a "tad" with the .85 (as expected) or not.

    Intercoolers..

    Skip the hassles & hardware of an IC and go directly to a meth/alky spray, as more & more people are choosing to do. Several good systems out there. ( Positive personal experience with Water Injection, Methanol Injection systems | Coolingmist )

    Ball Bearing Turbo Question...

    Retire Those Teensy-Weensy Obsolete 49s Already!! Ran a non-ball bearing LT-61 and stock D5 for several years. (Great initial beginner's upgrade, at that time.) Spooled like the factory turbo...only diff was more power. Moved on to a BB66...same D5. Same spool...and more power...

    to elecrtic fan the stock IC or not?

    A Great Budget Mod For a hour & a max. of 80-bucks, tripled IC fan cfm, & added the (optional) ability of manual control, over three years ago. Works great. :smile: You'd think it'd be on everyone's list of easy & cheap mods. (But, totally ditching the IC fan & the factory IC to...

    no intercooler ???

    Points to Ponder With a meth/h20 injection system with low-fuel warning lights (for those who don't monitor it themselves), "running out of meth" would not be very likely. (If that's a real concern, 5-gal. trunk mount reservoirs are available.) How many actual pump failures have ever been...

    An Ounce Of Prevention Is Worth A Pound Of Cure "An ounce of info is worth a pound of manure" Try to eliminate "drop-shipments" by simply going to their source whenever possible. Always, always, always ask if your items are in stock, get the person's name, ask for a tracking...
