Got my grandpas 85 grand national a few years ago just finished interior now moving to engine need detailed pics of the engine bay and anything that has helped anyone else along the way with the engine in general please and thank you.
 
Welcome to the forum. So, what are you starting with in the engine bay? Is there an engine in there? Did Gramps do any mods in there when he owned it?

I’m starting with everything under there just to get it running again It’s all stock or at least for the most part i know it was rebuilt in 2000 and there’s no mods on the car
 
This is a pic of a complete stock Hot Air setup from the factory. If you need detailed pic's I can P.M. you what you may be looking for. Since this pic was taken I updated to the 86/87 ECM, CCCI, Coil, MAF + Translator etc. See my signature for additional updates. I would suggest you do the updates while your getting into the engine compartment. These will wake the car up considerably and will also allow you to monitor the engine functions & tuning.

The coil pac shown is not OEM. This is a stock OEM Coil that should be on your (Gramps) car.

Send us some pic's of what your working with (keep each pic size under 1 meg or it will not load). How many miles on the engine since the rebuild? When was the last time it ran? Do you know why it quit running? What have you done so far to get the engine to fire? The more details you can provide the more we can help. Where are you located?
