    Spark Plug Question

    The 87 GN was running rough so when it went to the garage for a brake change-over to vaccum, I had the mechanic to put new plugs in. The mechanic said that the front two plugs on the left and right banks were real bad. I looked at them and the electrode grounds were gone. The part that makes...

    87 GN Body Bushings

    Where can I buy a COMPLETE set of rubber frame to body bushings? I'm not sure if there are any missing on my 87 but from what I hear, there were some left out at the factory and also some that were meant for the GNX. I'd like to get a set and make this T-Top ride like new.

    HORSEPOWER gain from recent Cold weather?

    Cold Weather Besides cold weather, I've noticed that in the summer, these cars love fog. Travelling in the mountains headed to Florida, I've hit patches of fog and it feels like 25 hp, especially going uphill. Be nice to have cold temps AND fog at the same time!
