SignUp Now!The complexity of the GN application of an engine diaper is very complex, mainly because of our header/crossover situation. The price quotes for these is also out of sight since a very high temp material is required.
This has directed our efforts in a different direction to comply with the new NHRA oil retention rules. The simple option from an engine diaper, which many racers have opted to do, is a belly pan.
We have been working on a belly pan design to fit a GN for a few weeks, and have developed an acceptable and working unit. Sunday I brought it with me to the track to show the track manager and the tech director. They both gave their full approval for its use.
We plan to have the pro-type details finished within a few days so that it can go into production. Our local track mandatory deadline is May 1 to have all 9.99 sec and faster cars with an engine oil retention system.
My car could have been sponsored by Huggies for the amount of oil it has leaked over it's lifetime.....
If you don't want to use your Stage block George, I would be happy to run it for you.....hehe

We have belly pans installed on a few local cars, a a couple elsewhere in the country, and am ready to ship one to a customer overseas.
There has been a lot of time spent in design and development to arrive at a rather simple solution. I am sure others will copy our work, so I am going to be "selective" in the initial sales since I know the China vendors can duplicate this at a fraction of what we have in it.
With that said, George and Chris, you can e-mail me direct or call, and I will be glad to work with you. Other Buick owners are welcome to do the same.
Units are available for immediate shipping.
