    E85 7th injector? Has anybody seen e 85 injected pre turbo?

    Probably easier to just buy 6 injectors sized for your goal with e85.

    Rebuild Part Recommendations

    Define crazy power? I’d go with stock everything except for forged pistons and a small cam upgrade. Is e85 an option? If so raise compression if you don’t intend to push a lot of boost.

    Head gaskets?

    I redid mine in 2017 with stock gm headgaskets, just cleaning up the surfaces before installing. They’ve lived just fine at 30psi with head studs.

    E85 fuel lines?

    I ran e85 using stock lines with the Saginaw fittings removed. Vent & return were switched. Walbro 450 and 80lb injectors. I had no fuel issues running a Te44 for all it was worth. It isn’t the best way, but it can be done.

    Who's ready for some 3800 power?!

    I used to drive a 3800 powered impala fleet car for work. WOT to redline all the time, every day for 100k miles. Couldn’t kill that motor. The 4t60 trans was another story.

    Who's ready for some 3800 power?!

    Thanks for the update. Awesome results. Many videos on YouTube of our Aussie friends squeezing 8-900 hp out of these engines.

    Turbo to manifold gasket

    I’ve used the remflex gasket from Mark at TR custom parts both times I swapped turbos. Going on 20yrs no leaks.

    Methanol Sources

    I do the same thing, but I wait until spring when the 4 packs of heet get moved to the clearance rack for $2. I also pick up the blue -20 ww fluid right next to it and run a mix: the gallon of ww fluid and all 4 heets.

    One piece front air dam

    Don’t know of any metal ones, you’d probably have to fabricate yourself. If something hit it while in motion (like roadkill) a metal air dam would likely buckle your front fender. I just got one from Mark at Buickgn.com and it’s a nice piece. Fairly sturdy for plastic too.

    Constant 2004R issues.

    After I fried a 200r4 my trans builder (Michael’s Transmission in Atco) took my greasy $200 craigslist- find Th400, rebuilt it for about $1200, and told me to try and break it. 15 years later I’m still trying! I don’t miss the overdrive.

    Upsizing fuel injectors

    Nice looking car. Do you have a scanmaster? If not I would make that a winter project. You already learned how to work on the car, learning to fine tune via the chip and the scanmaster is fairly easy. Get it to run with zero knock at WOT and it will live a long, faitt to my reliable life.

    Upsizing fuel injectors

    Run the 60’s. You are knee-capping yourself with that combo and pump gas. The turbo is still sleeping at 17psi.
