ESC & Vacuum instructions manual

[FlintBuick4Life]

How does the ESC and vacuum lines hookup on a draw-threw setup? I haven`t had one since 2000 and my memory is a little faded I believe I could figure it out, but I guess some schooling wouldn't hurt either:biggrin:

 

[FlintBuick4Life]

Anyone even know? :biggrin:

LMAO:biggrin: Idk how I never noticed that, always on B4B looking for info... duh I couldn't find info on how the ESC connects though. Thanks, Charlie

 

[charlief1]

No problem Jase. I have to go back and look at it myself once in while to make sure I know what I'm doing. LOL

 

[FlintBuick4Life]

lol... me too. Well I swapped the 79 turbo with the 85 and it bolts right on:biggrin: I might not need the plenum, mine is in good shape. But I could use some new oil lines with the intake and I need some rubber vacuum hoses... Let me know if you have any or anyone else does. and would it be bad to use a 120v alternator instead of the 100v?

 

[dr_frankenstein]

wait.... you swapped what on the turbo? sorry im lost.

As for the oil lines, I have some around somewhere.. I'll dig those up too... but I would just bend some new ones myself if I were you.

Oh... I was just saying to Charlie that he was right, the 79 turbo intake side bolts right up with the 85 turbo... Where would I look for lines at? I have the old lines, but there all rusted, was wanting to find Aluminum ones... idk where to look tho

Don't you mean 120 Amp?

 

[FlintBuick4Life]

Ah... I found them. Thanks Aj:biggrin:

and yea I meant 120 Amp... I should really read twice before I post

 

[charlief1]

A 74 Amp should be good enough but if you have a lot of electrical accessories then the 100 should take care of all of them.

 

[FlintBuick4Life]

I have a lot of electrical stuff in my Regal:biggrin: 3 Amplifiers, New Kenwood stereo, Amp Capacitor, Lighted gauges, Radar detector and even blue neons inside... yes I said neons:biggrin: Thats why I thought about using my GN 120 amp alt.

What, no flux capacitor?:biggrin: LOL You should be good with the 100 amp but if you run everything at the same time you may meed a 120 amp.

LMAO:biggrin: I wish... I could go back in time and get a free GN motor from my bud that worked at the buick factory back in the days I will try that 120 alt and see how it works.
