    Interior Trim questions

    I have searched and there are lots of old old posts on replacing the headliner. Some of them are just for t-tops. I have a 87 hardtop, and i need to pull off the trim around the headliner. The pieces that have me stuck are the ones over the doors. Trim that goes above the main door window...

    New GN Owner with 87 in need of rebuild

    I really want to get this car running. But I just don't have much cash to put into it. Since it's all stock and in great shape, I am hoping to get the car running as quick and cheaply as possible (without screwing myself over for far future upgrades)

    New GN Owner with 87 in need of rebuild

    Hmm, ok. I am always open to better/less expensive engine builds. Where is a good list of engine builders for this car? Or would it be easier to just ask folks to post a few names/emails/phone numbers for builders they trust here?

    New GN Owner with 87 in need of rebuild

    For $4000 I am getting a like-new running motor. I drop off the pile of 15 year old parts, and one week alter i pick up a fully running long block - all I need to do is drop it into the car and hook it up. As for internals, the $4000 only includes the parts I have, stockers, the price could...

    I have been quoted $4000 to rebuild the engine.... then i can install it. Sound excessive? Then I would have to install the engine and get the car going...

    New GN Owner with 87 in need of rebuild

    @Phoneguy - while I think it's totally amazing you hit those numbers, and that you took the time to store all the original parts...I am not looking to make this into a drag monster. I already have a 10sec quarter at 1123mph trap DSM I have sunk wayyyyyy too much into... the GN, I was just gonna...

    How hard is it to figure out the vacuum lines for a GN? Is there much in the way of emissions crap in the car to work through and see if its good or rotted? (car has been sitting for 15 years)

    I have a great tuner here, so... The idea is... on pump fuel with stock turbo, stock internals, stock trans - but with a pro dyno tune.

    New GN Owner with 87 in need of rebuild

    This car is a numbers matching, original paint, mint interior, 78,000 original miles, no dents/dings/scrapes on body, etc etc... great condition. Been sitting in a garage for 15 years waiting for the engine to be rebuilt from a spun bearing. I am ok to add power and modify some of the parts...

    New GN Owner with 87 in need of rebuild

    Hey there all! I just acquired a 87 GN in great shape. The one stickler is that its engine is fully disassembled from a previous spun bearing. My understanding is that the engine has been machined and all the parts are ready for re-assembly. SO - with that said, can you guys help a newbie...
