Not exactly. I was swapping some better heads onto the old motor when I discovered some pretty severe scoring in several cylinders I'm guessing from not having a air filter on the car. So I found a deal on this short block and just switched them out.

No I still have the car. Its currently getting twin s366 turbos all with a custom hot and cold side and a new 58x short block. I hope for the car to be done before summers end but don't really see it happening as of right now. I would consider selling the car for the right price but honestly I...

Nope I hate it with a passion shifts like crap one of the biggest reasons I'm taking it out for a auto. Only thing I like about is that I can cruse at 60 turning 1300 rpm

T56 trans I had to cut about 2 inches out if the driveshaft and make a new crossmember but that's basically it. It's a royal pita to find somewhere to mount the clutch pedal tho. I'm switching to a 4l80 this winter to be more friendly with the big turbo and everything with the new engine setup...

Has anyone ever done the staggered 17 inch front runner with 15 inch rears. I'm on the fence as to wether I want 15s all the way around or 17s on the front and 15s on the back. The wheel will be billet specalties street lites with the black anodized finish.

Guess 255s it is. Thanks Posted from the TurboBuick.Com mobile app

Check out Brian tooley racing for all your valve train parts I have his springs pushrods and cam in my motor and couldn't be happier. He also sells his own trunion upgrade that is the exact same as the comp but a few $$ cheaper. A forged rod/piston 6.0 handle the power you are wanting no...

I'm looking for a set of drag radials for my stock wheels probably some et streets, and I know normally a 255/60 is the tire of choice. My question is with a lowered car will they still fit or do I need to drop down to a 235? My car is lowered roughly 2 inches. Posted from the TurboBuick.Com...

The Edelbrock pro flo and the holley high ram are the only 2 true ram style intakes. The holley mid ram is a dual plane carb intake with the plenum bolted on top to give the look of the high ram. The mid ram will fit our cars I think as its the sane height as the pro flo but I don't see why...

It's the Edelbrock pro flo. The Holley intake is to tall to fit under the stock hood Posted from the TurboBuick.Com mobile app

It's the p trim t76 with the ball bearing upgrade. For a little known company I've been happy so far and it seems to be quality built but I plan to upgrade to something bigger this winter. Posted from the TurboBuick.Com mobile app

If your wanting to do a low budget build something like a carbureted lq4 with a cam and some cheap eBay headers would make 400 hp put a th400 behind it with a small stall and it would be a fun little street car with the potential to be turned into something with a lot more power down the road...

The cars been done but untuned for about the last 2 months and I've put about 1000 miles on it. I have to say that the drivability and power are far beyond the v6 even with the somewhat crude tune that its running right now. I did end up going with a cx racing front mount a2a intercooler. I also...

Pm sent.

I've taken some pics of the only rusty/bad spots on the car. These pics really highlight the bad spots and make them look worse that they really are. Posted from the TurboBuick.Com mobile app
