Yesterday was the annual Harvest Days at the local U-Pull-It. $40 for a full wheel barrow..., you have to successfully push it through a short obstacle course without losing any parts before being allowed to leave. I filled up 2 wheel barrows: Grabbed 3 different sized truck tires. All have...

I was thinking about taking my g-body carpet to the local laundromat and tossing it in the biggest washer they have. Anyone done this? Any input on settings or what to use for detergent?

When I turn on my defrost, my windshield immediately fogs up.....however, I don't see any coolant leaks on the ground or on pass side floor. Is it possible to have a heater core leak without physically finding any indication of a leak?

Pretty much all of the 80's domestic performance cars are represented.....as you would expect, the turbo buicks clean house (although the 13.6 cars would not have been stock). The other g-bodies did not fare too well (2 442's and 1 monte SS).

My 10 year old brought it home from school (teacher and 7 classmates also tested positive). My symptoms were extremely mild....sore throat and headache. If not for the pandemic, I would have just shrugged it off and went about my daily life. Anyone else here had it?

I'm swapping a 5.3/4l80E into an 88 cutlass classic. I realize that many use the 1" set back plates (that place the bell housing in the factory location).....but in my situation, I will be modifying the trans crossmember and getting a custom length drive shaft made. Other details include...

I just bought an 8.8 rear from a 99 mustang gt and I have a few questions around swapping it into my 86 monte SS: I plan to use the trick chassis kit, the upper control arm mount has multiple sets of holes, is there an optimal location to bolt the upper control arms? I see a lot of discussion...

How is everyone mounting their radiator when using the turbobuick/307 top plate? Mine is currently loosely mounted between the core support and top plate. But something doesn't seem right....there is quite a bit of room for movement. I see summit sells universal radiator insulators that would...

I swapped an 86 grand prix frame under my 86 442. The area of the frame at the #1 body mounts (core support) of the grand prix seems too low. If I try to place a stock body mount on that location.....Its not even close.....there is an uneven door gap to the point where the doors won't even...

Here is the deal.....I have a mostly stock 86 olds 442. I also just purchased an 86 grand prix with a 4.8/4l60e swapped in by the previous owner. My plan was to swap engine/trans, exhaust, crossmember, fuel tank, fuel lines, wiring, etc. from the gp to the 442. However, now I'm starting to...

I'd like to swap the 7.5 rear for an 8.8 in my 87 monte ss. What is the easiest/lowest cost method to accomplish the job? I'm ok with dealing with the Ford bolt pattern and stock gears (I do want to find a factory posi rear). should I get a Fox body rear or 94-98 rear?......I understand the...

Saw this on craigslist, looks like someone slapped some stickers and decals onto a 4 door ninety eight. Thought I'd check with the more knowledgeable members of the forum..... http://omaha.craigslist.org/cto/4933607132.html

It's been nearly impossible to find a decent pair of factory burgundy bucket seats in my area. I'm now looking at getting a pair of bucket seats from a newer monte or 2 door Grand Prix. Of course with no burgundy interior option from those years, I will need to dye the seats. My question is...

I've got a couple of problems with my 86 442: 1. If I let the car sit for more than 4 hours, I need to pump the throttle a couple of times for it to start. Not a big deal but would like to understand what is going on. 2. After a cold start, the idle begins at around 1300 rpm, then within...

I removed the AC on my 307 and now I get a belt squeal at startup. I am contemplating finding non-AC pulleys, or possibly fabricating an idler to replace the AC pulley. Has anyone done anything else?

I am seeing a reading of around 10 volts on the voltage gauge in my 86 442. It is constantly 10 volts whether cruising, idling, headlights on, etc. I checked voltage at the battery and alternator with a multimeter and am seeing around 14 volts. Things like headlight brightness, power window...

There is a local 455/TH400 in a 74 Buick Electra for a reasonable price. How fast would this combo be in a g-body, assume stock engine, exhaust manifolds, etc. Would a mid 13 second quarter mile be realistic? This could be fun cheap project.

After my 86 442 sits for over 2-3 hours, it will crank but not start unless i spray a small amount of starting fluid in the carb - then it fires right up. Completely stock 307, and just bought the car a few days ago, so i don't have much history on it. Anyone else ever have this problem?
