I I'll take that into consideration. There were a whole bunch of parts that came with the car. This is the first chance I've had to put some time into it, so I figured I'd liquidate the parts and gather a budget for upgrades. Now that I'm working on the car I'm sure I'll get my post count up...

I'm sorry for the delay in response. I don't use this forum often and tried to respond yesterday, but I kept getting errors. I was only able to respond to a couple of messages. One of the 2 tachs has been sold, and I don't want to cause any problems here, so I'll be posting the second on eBay...

I have this Buick 10k rpm tach that came with my GN at purchase. I'm interested in finding out what it's worth and selling or trading it. The gentleman who sold me the car was a Buick tech during the mid 80's and told me it's very rare, but I have no idea of the value. It's brand new in the...

Thanks for all the input fellas. I'm placing my order today for a Bendpak xpr-10A. I like the rotary a lot as well, but for $2K less I think the Bendpak is the way to go for me.

Wow Mick... That's a killer setup. 65 large might be a bit steep for me, but that is one bad ass setup! Im just a hobbyist, so that is probably over kill, but if I had no budget at all that would be the route I went.

For the guys using a rotary: what makes them better than the Bendpak units? At twice the price I imagine there has to be a significant difference.

Thanks for all the responses guys. Any features that I should be looking at specifically. I've only ever really worked my rides on jack stands, so this is totally uncharted waters for me.

I know some of you guys on the forums own shops or have lifts in your garages. I was looking for a recommendation on a good brand/model. I'll be installing a lift at my machine shop for working on my personal vehicles and just wanted to know what's the best route. I know Mohawk is like the...

The real crazy part of that is that I bought my ocho brand spanky new in '07 for $45k. That's a $20k uptick in price over 7 years. Rediculous!

Trust me the srt8 isn't without its traction issues. Even in stock form there's a decent amount of wheel hop due to the AWD. It's not as if it's struggling to gain traction, but almost the opposite, and at WOT from a dig it gets a little squirrelly. That being said I have a hard time believing a...

Thanks for all the replies. I'm thinking about going E85 as its pretty easy to get in the Chicago area. As I understand it the only real drawback is availability of fuel or are there other concerns? I've never built a ride that runs E85, so I'm pretty much a complete novice when it comes to...

Let me rephrase that. Not necessarily daily driven, but who's running fast and putting at least a few thousand miles a year on their ride? It seems like plenty of guys put miles on cars deep in the 10's, but who's the fastest. I'm trying to set goals for my 86' GN build and I'd basically like to...

Are we ever going to get some video or pictures of this pro EFI setup? I'd love to see how the system works.

Can anyone recommend a turbo 6 engine builder/tuner in the Chicago area. I've searched through a bunch of threads, but can't seem to find any shops that are still open? If not, where my best bet in the surrounding states?

Just bought an 86' GN from him and it was as advertised. He worked with me on price and gave me a great deal on a great driver quality car. Thanks brother!
