    Rock & Roll - 1984 Oldsmobile Ciera Convertible - Engine Build and Car Restoration!

    Nice! Cant wait for more updates! The LZ9 is a 3.9 and the 3.5 variant is an LZ4. Both use the same size bore (3.898") and the main differences are the crank arm, 3.31" and 3.00". The Gen 4 60* use VVTI and have larger cam journals, they also have larger rod journals(2.25"). Same size main...

    Rock & Roll - 1984 Oldsmobile Ciera Convertible - Engine Build and Car Restoration!

    Welcome back! How's the TBI/C59 combo working for you? Sounds like the base tune is fairly close, Im just wondering about the injector DC when you start building some boost. On a side note, Ive created a page for the LZ9 build... https://www.facebook.com/LZ9GN/

    1st gen F body

    Oh ok. The D585 truck coils are the best as far as durability and output. They have the same mounting pattern as the 581's but also have an external heat sink. I went to the boneyard this past weekend and found the exact coils you have, which seem to be called the LS2 coils or D581.

    Iron head testing (update on post #65)

    I don't think the floor was designed for anything special other than keeping the port lower, for space constraints. From what I have seen, there is little "flow" on the port floor.

    WTB: Rear lowering springs

    BLUF: I need to buy a set of good used rear lowering springs, after finding out the previous owner of my GN cut the top coil off. Budget minded, will also consider new if at a decent price. Budget is busted after paying out of pocket for college classes. Thanks!

    Question for experienced 200r4 builders

    Ive been wondering the same, the current combo for the LZ9 is capable of winding up over 7K, not like I will intentionally wind it up that far though.

    Sacriligious swap...

    Since I've found the current LC2 in the car to be practically a boat anchor, and I've been wanting to experiment with an engine for years now, this was a good time to swap. Since there is no real dedicated section for this swap, and this may be the first of it's kind, I'll just open a thread...

    Let's talk Knock Sensors, ESC modules.

    If the XFI has the capability to use wide band knock sensors, I go that route. Testing the KS, at least with the GM ECM, the engine needs to be running. You could possibly set up a test bench and test the ESC that way. HTH

    Annoying

    I have the same issue, no control over ad blocker. I understand I shouldn't be on the forums at "work", I need to get my fill of Turbo Buick. There is only one other site I found that won't let you enter until ADblocker is turned off, I don't visit that site anymore. If money is a factor...
