    GN Front Clip - what is it worth?

    Attached are pictures of a brand new (I was told OEM) front clip (I think that's what it is called). I bought it from a forum member 6 years ago just in case I would ever need it. Trying to sell the car now so I was wondering how much this may be worth. Thank for any input.

    Is Steve Kaminsnki still around?

    I was looking for him. He did some work on my son's car a couple of years ago and had a question. Sent him an email and also a text message. Haven't heard from him. He also goes by skturbo on the forums. Hope he is ok.

    Knock Question - please see powerlogger file

    Help - my son and I were at the track the other day. He had a few good runs. His car has a built motor with methanol injection. Car seems to run strong but always in the middle of the run he gets some knock. I can't tell if it's caused by the shift or something else. Obviously, we are concerned...

    Please look at this powerlogger file

    Need opinions from the experts again. You have always been extremely helpful to me before. The attached file shows a run at the drag strip in my son's 87 GN. He seems to get some knock in 2 parts of the run usually at lower speeds, around 50 and 70 mph. The boost is up here but there is no knock...

    HELP - Can the experts please look at the 3 powerlogger files and give opinions

    Fuel pressure was rising with boost. Have to check if alky set up correctly, The knock sensor was installed after the new engine was installed.

    HELP - Can the experts please look at the 3 powerlogger files and give opinions

    It's an '87 GN with a stroker motor built by Weber racing. If you need the specifics of the motor etc., I can provide them. We are spraying methanol using Razor's kit and running 93 octane. The problem is that the car is always showing some knock. I have attached 3 powerlogger files. LogFile2...

    Help with Powerlogger file

    I think I just figured out what I did. I was able to review the entire file at the track with no problems. Instead of hitting F3 to save, I clicked on the "Save Snapshot" button so I probably only saved what was on the screen at that time.

    Help with Powerlogger file

    I have saved some runs we did with the power logger. When I try to review the file, I can only see 400 frames. I am unable to move the screen to the right or left. The slide bar to the right of the "save snapshot" button doesn't work. I've tried the arrow and page keys with no success. Did I do...

    Question on adjusting TPS

    My son and I were trying to adjust the TPS on his 87 GN. We were able to set the idle setting to .42 with no problem but we are having difficulty setting the WOT setting above 4.4. We have it set at 4.3 now. Are we doing something wrong? Any tips?

    Don't know the compression ratio. Maybe it's in the documentation from Weber but I couldn't find it.

    His last run last week, he ran 12.3. He said it felt pretty good. Just gets very cautious when he sees the slightest bit of knock. Afraid to break something again. We just want to tune to no knock and have some fun.

    I think my son had the alky set to 7. We were going to lower it this week.

    Sorry I didm't give you more info. The car is an 87GN. It has a stroker motor built by Weber Racing. It also has Razor's alky. Just to give you a little background, after the motor was built by Weber we took the car to the track and proceeded to blow the headgasket and destroy a piston. We got...
