    Spohn Pro-Touring Adjustable Rear Sway Bar

    The Spohn bar will have a lower "rate" than the other bars. I have a Spohn pro-touring bar on my 72 GS built for handling. When I was purchasing it, the seller described the HR bar as a "drag bar", having a different purpose in life than a "pro touring" bar. So, I think the best bar will...

    Will CK shift kit help my 2nd gear slip?

    That is quite a list of possible issues! Which of these could be addressed by the shift kit, or could at least be inspected/verified at the time of installing the kit? I don't really want to spend an evening on my back installing the kit, and then still have to pull the trans for a rebuild...

    Will CK shift kit help my 2nd gear slip?

    After storing my 22 year old Eagle GTs, I now have some drag radials and good traction. New problem - My th200 is slipping when going into 2nd at full throttle. The trans behaves properly at part throttle and going into other gears at WOT. Car is basically stock, and has 18,000 miles. I have...

    Installed Cold Air Kit & Now have rough idle

    Thanks for the offers and assistance. I bought a reman MAF from Oreilly's and installed last night. It has the screens. Car cranked and idled as it did before! I suspect the lack of screens in my old MAF was the culprit. I will drive some this weekend to verify all is well. This is the...

    Installed Cold Air Kit & Now have rough idle

    I ordered a TT chip tonight, and noticed that the TT website says to run at least one screen. I think I will order a new MAF to have a spare and get the screens that I am missing. They do all come with screens, don't they? Any preferred brands or sources for a MAF? Are they all remans? I'm...

    Installed Cold Air Kit & Now have rough idle

    No scan tool at this time. I have ordered one from Full Throttle, but they are out of stock right now. I've been thinking about a TT chip. I guess I will order one now. Does anyone have an old screen I can buy to try out?

    Installed Cold Air Kit & Now have rough idle

    Did not see any screens, but since I am new to TRs, I would not know what they look like. Anybody got a pic? I will check vacuum lines. Any common problem ones I need to start with? Car is so stock looking, its scary.

    Installed Cold Air Kit & Now have rough idle

    As one of my first mods, I installed a Tinman cold air kit. Now I have a terribly cold natured car and a very rough idle even when fully warm. Stumbles badly when coming off idle as well. Cruises fine and runs fine at WOT. Chip is unknown origin, an old one from previous owner. Car was a...

    Thank you very much! I knew I could depend on the TurboBuick guys.

    what size wheel studs on a 87 GN?

    While attempting to test fit some new wheels, I discovered my 7/16" lug nuts won't go on. Then I notice the "M" on the stud and "metric" on the stock lug. Duh. So, what size lugs do I need to order?

    How do you prime the power steering?

    I installed a new pump and box on my 72 GS. Had to turn the wheel back and forth 20 times or more while engine idling. Starting working a little. Then drove very slowly up and down my driveway (300' long) while turning wheel lock to lock. Did this maybe a dozen times, starting working better...

    shocks

    I like a firm shock, so it sounds like the Bilsteins for me, too. Who has the best price?

    Price of drag radials went up about 9%.

    Darkcyde, I would be interested in your wheels if you decide to sell them, can you post pics?
