    BUILD THREAD 86 GP 2+2~Blown 6.0

    I ended up ordering the CPP adjustable pro touring style rear swaybar. Jim got a great deal on his a year ago but the price went up 60% since then. However, it looks like it's the best option for my car as it's one of the few that won't interfere with my fuel system, exhaust, and is something...

    Diff swap need some help

    Depends what ratio you have. There are series 2 carriers for gear ratios 2.14-3.08 and series 3 carriers for 3.23-4.56+ If you are using the carrier and gears from the f body you can just swap over the whole unit (if you also buy 28 spline axles) If all you are using is gears OR carrier from...

    Gas tank for LS swap

    The dual 450 can support a lot of power, that's what I have, albeit home made But I don't understand a) how do you get 2 pumps through the tank hole at the same time when 1 barely fits b) there's no way that fits under the stock trunk without cutting the floor, I had to dent one of the...

    What did you do to your non-G body project today? [2022]

    Back to model building- Blew all my car project funds on my pickup so I gotta rebuild my GP & Cutlass fund. These 2 are actually going to Switzerland. Dude messaged me on my FB page and said he was going to be in IA for one of the big model & collectable shows and asked if I could built a pair...

    What Did You Do To Your G-Body Today? [2022]

    Just find a truck square port intake, they are like $75 at the local salvage yards. If you don't put that engine in place of the 5.3 I'm going to reach through the computer and slap ya!! Haha

    1983 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme Sedan LS Turbo Build

    Bent axle & stud committee reporting for duty. 31 spline for you? My 30 splines twisted at ~3700lb with 126mph trap speed & light/moderate tire shake. I still have yet to determine how to turn off my tire shake. Mine was caused from the tire crushing & rolling over itself about 20ft out.

    1983 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme Sedan LS Turbo Build

    Ditto on the bent studs. I know that feeling. Do you have 1/2-20? I bent my m12's last month. One guy I know who runs a ~4100lb mid 9 sec '70 GP said he gets 2 years out of his 1/2-20 and replaces them as a wear item. He has similar power/weight so not surprising for you. I tossed some 5/8"...

    Question on Spohn ls mounts

    I don't have them but I'd recommend them after seeing how they fit. Since you are in Madison do you know or can you contact Tylor Bretthauer? He is in the madison area and has a blue 84ish regal with a turbo LS that uses BMR mounts and a CTSv pan.

    A Fabricobbler's Guide to the Turbo Buick Galaxy- Cutlass Rehash

    I think any Vue. There's one without and one with the compass and temp. Correct, no map light. First RKE module swap for me! I got lucky too and got one with a FOB. That's still only 20% of the parts I need to put it back to Buick There's not much left

    A Fabricobbler's Guide to the Turbo Buick Galaxy- Cutlass Rehash

    Back to updates here I guess 2+2 is going into storage soon and the cutlass is coming back home for a trans and wiring upgrade this winter. Made it to the salvage yard with Blake yesterday for some misc 2+2 and cutlass parts. Got a compass/temp mirror out of a Vue, some interior trim I was...

    84' Cutlass pro touring build

    Looking good! Optimistically do you plan/think it will be running in the spring? Or too much work still? Panel alignment is a nightmare.

    Gas tank for LS swap

    Tanks Inc, Spectra, holley all have repop 'baffled' GN EFI tanks. I have seen photos that show a OEM GM tank has better baffling than a spectra tank but I've never had an issue with my spectra. As long as you aren't dumb and don't autocross at 1/8 tank you are fine with the spectra. I have no...

    On the Cheap chasing an 8.50

    I never realized '10G's and the Keys' meant $10,000 and the car keys until now. Well the budget might be blown but 9's for 11k is still damn good! What IAT are you running on the pass it bent all the rods? Is the deck of the block torched? I agree putting forged rods/pistons in your setup...
