Ebay finds.

[charlief1]

I would have titled it evilbay but no noe would be able to find it.:smile: We started a BS thread so I figured we should start an evilbay thread since we're kinda exclusive.:biggrin: Here's a couple of decent finds but the engine is way over priced on the shipping.

i like and hate the idea. if your going to bid on the item it makes it harder for you to get it. the more people who know about it; the more it is going to cost you.:tongue: the good thing is that you will be able to find stuff here.

I agree id rather keep what I find secret until I know its mine. unless I know for a fact that i cannot win the auction.

I mean, Unless a group come together to buy a lot of parts, or plans on spliting up the auction.

Thanks Matt, but they're standard. The ones I need are the same ones Aj is using on his 4.1. They're very short compaired to the stock design and If I had 6.5" I'd have the pistons already. Turns out Cottons has them in stock.

But I think you understand why I started this thread. We can bid against each other or co-operate with each other for the best price.

A dry nitrous system fogger? We can't use it because we're not EFI Matt. Interesting find though.

 

[mat231v6]

you have to remember i have a 87 gn too. it was a good price. right now i have a plate system on the car(drawthrumotorcar).

 

[mat231v6]

thinking about it you could use it if you put the duel fuel and nitrous fogger on. all you have to do is drill the turbos foot. or am i wrong? it just struck me you could do that i think. it really doesnt matter but if you could that would be a cool thing that you guys can do. you can hide it in that back so no one knows.

 

[charlief1]

You Bum! I didn't know you had an 87!

 

[mat231v6]

i do but it is just the shell and frame. the car use to be ans peformances race car. i have the motor that was in the car too. the motor on the engine dyno pulled 550HP on 8 or 10 pounds of boost. its a wicket motor. the story of how i got it is even better but i will have to tell you latter on.
