My restoration of a 84 IC'd GN

[Waco84GN]

I have provided a link to a site that I made to show people what I'm doing to my car. I made this site in response to some prodding I got at a local Buick meeting. I hope someone finds the site somewhat interesting, I know I do, but I'm somewhat bias. Please don't flame me for what I've done I just thought I'd share some ideas with the turbo buick community. Thanks in advance for looking at my site.

Dude...That looks killer. It is appearant that you have spent alot of time on this - and it shows.

1. Have you considered moving the T/B to "post" intercooler status? - this will make the car way more driveable and reponsive.

 

[cool 84]

That's a cool setup. Spearco made an almost identical setup as yours. In fact I thought I was looking at my friend's old car when I first saw the pictures of the motor. The only difference is the plumbing on the Spearco system went along the valvecover and over the headers.

Great work man, it looks great you and your dad get a A+ from me.

The car and the site look good this will help some of the guys that are going to intercool there cars soon.

I like your setup. It really looks great. I especially like the scoop for your intercooler. The scoop is awesome.

I can relate

It's nice to see I'm not the only one who has taken on such a big challange. I wish I had used the saw horse method ( Used 4X4's and cinder blocks ) it looks a lot easier. I didn't use a turbo car frame and had to cut out the transmission mount and weld it to the donor frame. Your making much progress. Doing way better than me but, I'm doing mine solo ( by choice ). It's a big help when your dad has skills to make the necessary parts when you need them. In not going with a IC but, having more fun that one man can stand. Good luck and happy motoring when your done.

Thanks Jerry Berger

Hey Waco,

That sure looks good. I hope you know who this is. I sold you the car. This is my name on here and I hope to build a site soon so that you guys can check it out. I wanted to tell you that the site looked good.

Hey TexasTurbo

Update your signature man!!! We finished your motor and it will run 11's. Also put your other mods. I dont want anyone to know my mods so I can sneak up on people. Although while your blowing by me at the track I still might be able to convince some people of the power of the darkside myself.

 

[TXTURBO]

OH yeah

Man I have not even noticed my sig.. Here is the update below

 

[TXTURBO]
