    Transmission Pan Upgrades

    Bruce, Can you explain the bottom feeder tube/filter to me. Or do you have any pics? Are replacement filters readily available? Is it a simple swap similar to replacing the filter or is it more involved? Is this set-up effective under heavy side loads....i.e. hard cornering. I do...

    Tranny pan options?

    Alright, I'm getting read to change the tranny fluid and replace the TCC solenoid so I figure now would be a great time to upgrade the transmission pan. What are the thoughts and opinions on the Art Carr Pan (Kirban Sells) vs. the Modified Art Carr pan w/700-R4 filter upgrade (DRW...

    Backspacing w/B-body Spindles????

    I've read that the B-body spindles push out the front wheels about a 1/4". I would like to run a 17x8 or 17x8.5 with 255's all the way around. What backspacing have others used with the B-body spindle up front? If at all possible I'd like to run the same backspacing on the front and rear...

    Slight Pulsating

    I've been chasing the same problem. I read in another post a little while back that someone had solved a similar problem by replacing the cam sensor/shaft. Apparently they wear over time and develop some play. I haven't had a chance to change mine yet. That same post talked about BLM's...

    GP on Baer Tracker frt upgrade

    CopGN and Royal-T-Ltd, I think it is too late to get in on the group purchase as the orders were placed back in May and have been delivered. I would suggest talking with Rick Elam (Baer) and Jack Cotton if you are interested in trying to do another group purchase. You can find their...

    GP on Baer Tracker frt upgrade

    I received my kit on Friday just as I was walking out the door to go away for a couple days. All I got to do is peek but it looked real nice so far! I guess it's time to order some wheels and tires! Thanks again for all involved! Dave

    GP on Baer Tracker frt upgrade

    No problem Rick, I wasn't trying to blame you (Baer) or Jack. I realize this isn't an "off the shelf" item! I was just looking for an update. It's not like I can install the brakes just yet anyway......not until I get a new set of wheels and tires! Thanks again (to both Rick and Jack) for...

    GP on Baer Tracker frt upgrade

    Any word on the Baer GP order? I would have expected to see something by now. Has anybody talked to Jack? I also ordered a MAF pipe from Jack and haven't seen or heard anything. I've figured he was going to send everything together but now that it's been so long I figured I check with the...

    Herb's (Turboregal84) Birthday Today

    Herb, Happy belated B-day. I see you added another nice regal to the stable! Very nice daily driver I'm sure. My GN is apart as usual. Putting in the new rad and valve springs this weekend. Check out the MAGNA board for more info. Let me know sometime when you know you are heading to...

    Valve springs replaced already???????

    No, I don't need the car for work. However, it can't stay in non-running condition where it is now for very long. The car would still pull into the 5200 range but at 100k+ I felt it was the smart thing to do. I don't drive the car very much as I'm still trying to do a bunch of work to get...

    Valve springs replaced already???????

    Well, I have a 3 day weekend so I decided I would change the valve springs and put my new radiator in my 109k 87 GN this weekend. I bought CC 980's and new valve seals. After pulling the first spring off I noticed that there was already a blue viton seal on the valve! From what I've read...

    Building a better handling turbo Regal.

    Interesting thread concerning the GNX suspension. You can check out KevinS website for more info on IC. http://www.turbobuick.com/forums/showthread.php?threadid=65955&referrerid=4065 I think this could become the next Powermaster vs. Vac. Brakes arguement. Everybody has their own...

    Building a better handling turbo Regal.

    UNGN- I have a picture of a G-body (80's Monte) lifting the inside rear wheel going through a turn. I'll send it to anyone who wants to see it. I'm not saying it's doing it accelerating out of a turn. I agree, this isn't what you would want in a rear drive car. But, this backs I'm my point...

    Global West Lwr Arm/Sway bar prob.

    Matt, I found some pictures of the GW lower arms on someones website last night, and they are not like mine. The bars I saw the picture of have a tab hanging off the bottom that would have to be drilled for the sway bar to mount. This seems in line with everyone talking about having to drill...

    Building a better handling turbo Regal.

    I understand I don't want poly for the binding reason, however, I would like the option of using a sway bar. I mean, I do plan on running at the car at the dragstrip also. It is ashame the GW can't give me a little bit of customer service because like you said, the product is definitely...
