    Hello, looking for help identifying a component

    Look like transmission crossmembers to me.

    2004r help- backed out went for 10 min drive round block, came back rev not working.

    SO... fluid is full now. and with tv hooked up at idle what is the pressure? with unhooked and a full pull it only comes up to 150 psi, do I have that right? What about tv unhooked, some revs(maybe 1000-1500rpm) and full pull of tv cable, what are we getting there?

    A little advice please

    https://www.turbobuickperformance.com/245mm-3021-torque-converter-p-121.html?osCsid=glelbeo6ppq3dpfle5j57951j5 not sure what you want to spend but since you were off into the heads and roller cam a trans freshen up and converter from me husek would be a wise place to start.

    A little advice please

    If I were keeping it non intercooled I'd be looking at spraying a bunch of alcohol into it to "intercool" it with chemistry. Unless you are having some kind of cam issue that isn't going to get you much if anything over a stock bumpstick. I didn't do any math but I doubt the 90# injectors are...

    How One Thing leads to Another

    You are well past the "while we are here" and into "I got a few extra dollars"

    1987 grand national driver and passenger seats

    AFAIK they don't stay back from the factory. Or at least I don't believe mine did when new. Which province are you dealing with?

    Catalysator

    I'm going with your wanting to do a Catalytic Converter. Is there a reason? With these cars being well over 25 yrs old they are well out of warranty and don't really need such a device.

    Sputtering After High Speed

    I stand by my original statement(aged out on both) that those original injectors are suspect at least and the fuel filter needs changed.

    4.1L block values?

    As I posted over on v8, they have value to the right buyer. But if you want top dollar a trip through someone's vat, a magnaflux and measure it will be needed. They are cores at this point. Might get $250-500 for a good bare block with main caps. Maybe some more or some less. Those 4.1 cranks...

    picked up a rough 87 Grand National - how to approach project?

    With the age of these cars, they are ALL projects. Just some are bigger than others. I wanted a limited and I doubt I could put together the fundage all at once to go that route so when this one came up even though it was some assembly required I jumped in. Looking at the bottom of the pumpkin...

    Rear end recommendations

    How tall a rear tire do you plan on running? Will there be slicks or a sticky drag radial type tire for the track? How tall will they be in the "plan"? Fun on the street might include smokey burnouts or "street action" with a wager on the outcome so you really don't want to be on the losing end...

    picked up a rough 87 Grand National - how to approach project?

    frame zip tied to wall body sitting on a stack of 40x48 pallets Plenty of parts but just as much missing. If you wrench you will be ok, if you don't and have to pay someone or more than one, you are underwater in a hurry. This is my current focus. I also managed to acquire this one as a...

    picked up a rough 87 Grand National - how to approach project?

    Goal for the project? I'd do the floors and look for a series II v6 and 4l80e and aftermarket ecu/tcu and make it run and drive. Nothing kills a project faster than loosing interest. If it is running and driving way harder to loose interests. But you do you.
