I've been having troubles surfing syty.net and am unable to join it at the moment due to the work they're doin over there. I thought i'd post here and see if you syty guys could help me out. Looking to make a syty clone. Not original i know. Mainly what i'm interested in knowing at the...

Howdy gang, My ultimate goal is to put together a sy-clone and matching TR. I would like them to have the same drivetrain. So i'm debating on which is better. The 4.3 or the 3.8. I've read a few places exclaiming that the 4.3 is essentially the stock vortec motor with dished pistons...

i'm looking to put an 86-87 GN motor into an 84 Hurst Olds... I've heard that the heater/ac box is a different size on the GN/TR to accomodate the down pipe. Anyone confirm this? thanks a bunch, Keith Grant

I shipped a crossmember from an 85 GN to a guy on the oldsgmail.com mailing list. When he got it he said it wouldnt work. Is there a difference between the 2004r crossmember in a buick.. and the one in an olds? any help is greatly appreciated. I cant imagine that the "same" chassis would...

I'm making a turbo buick hybrid. Right now i'm going to focus on the fuel system. But I need a little help with selection of hose size etc. I plan on using Aeroquip socketless hose and fittings. They're rated at 250psi, anyone have any reason why i shouldn't use this hose? Okay to the...

What are they worth HP wise? Say you had a low milage stock motor and you tore it down to re-ring it with total seals. Advantages in reliability? Extra HP? and what does a set run money wise? thanks Keith Grant

Here's the set up: TE-60, 50# inj., 2800 Stall. Objectives: 1) Low 11-High 10 second passes with conservative boost levels 2) Easy and reliable boost adjustments 3) Exhaust not being the limiting factor in Hp production That's the long and short of it. Looking for advantage /...

Hello, i'm a 21 year old college student living in Rolla, Mo. I'm looking for people to talk to via email or chat who have experience with TR. Mainly just looking for misc. info, tuning tips, etc. I'm just starting a project. It's still in the beginning stages. Look forward to hearing...

I'd like some advise on how to get 500hp at the wheel. I've pretty much decided on msd 50#'s but i need to know what Turbo/converter combinations can work to put 500hp to the ground and still be comfortable to drive on the street daily. TIA Keith

i'm trying to figure out is how much power is lost through the 200r4 and the differental in these cars? I thought a rule of thumb was 25-27 percent. An optimistic goal is to have 500 hp at the wheels. I've seen charts on what turbo, stall and injector size you need to attain certain hp...

I've got the opportunity to ditch the hard top project in the garage and switch over to a t-top. The ultimate goal of this project is a daily driver that can turn 10's in race trim. Can a t-tops car turn 10's without breaking things? What additional braces are needed? Would a roll cage do...

I've been looking around at some stage stuff and have come across a few things that aren't quite clear. first of all... on-center vs. off-center. on or off center of what? and what parts arent interchangeable between on/off center blocks, and what are the advantages of each? will a stage...
