    '84-'85 Champion Racing Intake Manifold

    That's the "I don't really want to do it but I will if you pay me enough" price.

    '84-'85 Champion Racing Intake Manifold

    Thanks. I already have several. It was a long shot, but I thought I'd see if one was available at a better price than Champion charges.

    '84-'85 Champion Racing Intake Manifold

    I'm looking for one of the Champion Racing modified intake manifolds for the '84-'85 hot air engines.

    egr block off plate

    Yes, they work on a 4.1 intake and several of the aftermarket intakes with EGR also. Considering the EGR is on the back of the intake, you'll never see it anyway.

    egr block off plate

    Not as fancy looking but these work just fine. I've personally dealt with this company and they are reputable and great to deal with. I have one of these sitting around also. TTA Performance

    egr block off plate

    Used to be able to get nice billet block off plates on Ebay but I don't see them listed anymore. They are the same as on 80's 350 and 305 TBI engines, '93-'97 Camaro Z28's and many others cars such as Hondas. Acura, etc. You'll have to look around for a reputable seller. You may need different...

    Holley 3.8 4.1 buick v6 4bbl intake & valve covers

    Forgot to mention something. Did you notice the firing order cast into that intake?

    Holley 3.8 4.1 buick v6 4bbl intake & valve covers

    The Holley 300-22 Street Dominator intake was designed before the cylinder head change in 1979. Unless there was a design change later in production I'm not aware of, it doesn't fit the 1979 & up heads. I know mine didn't because I placed an intake gasket on it and it didn't line up. The...

    Holley 3.8 4.1 buick v6 4bbl intake & valve covers

    I sold a brand new one of these still in the original box with instruction sheet and installation kit earlier this year. Nice intake but they are designed to fit the earlier low port heads '75-'78.

    ECM /Distributor Upgrade

    I haven't tried it with an HEI distributor but I've run an MSD distributor with the advance locked out. There's an old thread in Before Black that you might want to read over to get some ideas. https://turbobuick.com/threads/timing-and-boost-on-a-carbed-turbo6.411746/

    N/A Build...PICS INSIDE!

    You may want to start a new thread. Not certain but I think some of his last posts were lost in a site crash. If I recall correctly, the car was returned to being a fun street driver and not raced anymore.

    Loose Crankshaft Pulley

    You can see a bolt missing from the crankshaft pulley. Better check to make sure you have all of them in and tight. Also make sure the balancer bolt is tight. You'll have to remove the intercooler fan to check it.

    '81 VS. '83 Turbocharger: What's the Difference?

    You really should post these questions in the Before Black section. Too much information about your car, your goals and your budget is missing for anyone give an informed opinion. Not sure what you mean by "near complete" harness, but all of the necessary sensors for the '81 engine need to be in...

    '81 VS. '83 Turbocharger: What's the Difference?

    If you don't have the complete wiring harness and computer, the computer controlled carb is useless. Without it, the engine might start but the carb would run full rich, puke smoke and be undriveable. There's a little bit of info in this thread about the 1981 wastegate actuator...

    '81 VS. '83 Turbocharger: What's the Difference?

    The '78-'81 turbos had an .82 turbine housing. The '82-'83 turbos had a slightly faster spooling .63 turbine housing. The actuator assembly in 1981 was a one year only design and didn't work very well. Most people changed them out for one from a '78-'80 or '82-'83. You can read up on the early...
