Thanks a whole lot for your post. Lots of helpful information in there. I have to expose my ignorance here and ask what an LC2/2004r conversion is? In your opinion is awd on the s-series trucks worth the trouble? I just thought it would be worth the extra handling characteristics to build an...

myclone, thanks a tone for the help. I guess i could get a wrecked syty and sell off the parts i dont need. But i want an extended cab. are the frames different from extended/regular cab? i'm new to the s-series trucks. Thanks. Keith Grant

well i had planned to put a gn/tr engine in it. that's why i wanted to just get a frame and get started. part of the fun is building it and saying you did it yourself. i got the project truck for 200 bucks and it holds sentimental value to my fiance and i'd like an extended cab. i'm almost...

what kind of coil over set up do you have there dave? just kind of currious. I'd like my sonoma to handle alot better. thanks Keith oh yeah, on sytyauthority.com they had .82g listed i believe.

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...

Well i kinda figured that. I read that the maximum boost recommended for the syty was around 19psi or so. I've heard of plenty of people going north of 25psi in the GN/TR crowd. So, my next question. Aside from weight and worse gears. Anything wrong with putting a 700-R4 behind a 3.8...

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...

thanks a bunch guys :-) love this board :-) Keith

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...

it sure would... I received my control arms two days ago. completely impressed with the kit. The del-lum bushings look awesome should get an extra set just for display :-) Keith

Oh, i was under the impression that there must be some advantage to compensate for what i assumed to be the extra expense of total seal rings? You would think you could achieve higher boost levels and more power without... well i dunno.. at some point the boost would prolly shoot the air/fuel...

azgn, Thanks again for the info. As far as the wastegate goes. The THDP uses the stock type correct? Is that to mean that you just take a stock one and modify it as the instructions on gnttype.org show? Or are there different kinds/qualities of stock style waste gates. I thought the idea...
