    Backspacing and Offset

    I am going the stocker route with my Regal, and I want some real meat in the back. I am looking at 15x10's in the back and 15x8's in front. What kind of back spacing should I be lookin for in the back?

    have you guys seen this build up before?

    I knew I wasn't crazy about putting a C5 rear end in my regal. Now I REALLY want to attempt this on my ride!

    qa1 colover kit?

    I noticed nobody replied to your post. I was looking at the same kit probably from Spohn.net. I'm talking about the 18 way single adjustable set.

    STRIPPEDDD!!!

    You could also try heating up the bolt and mainly around the block where it is installed with a torch, if you had one. It is definitely seized now and might consider lifting the car in the air a bit to get better access a well. Have you tried tightening it back down? You might be able to loosen...

    Don't really know how to go about checking compression. Will try another grounding strap as well. Still don't have a good idea on why my plugs looked so black from just turning the car over.

    Ok, back to finally getting under the hood again. Pulled the plugs and this is what I found after ZERO miles. How the hell could they get so dirty already? These were the Bosch Platinum 2+ that were supposed to work in the car. Went with the standard Autolites coppers for $2. Still did not work...

    QUOTE: Just an FYI if you remove that tired v6 if its a 109 casting it is the same block as a gn the only difference is the hole for the oil return from turbo is not drilled. Its not the good turbo buick casting as Ii ends in 290. I have pretty much set mind up for doing an LSX swap anyway. I...

    I will try some new plugs then as well. Maybe I can get them for free from Advance.

    How would the plugs ground themselves out in place? What would be the cause of that?

    Fuel pump is brand new, checked line from pump to carb - was squeaky clean. I have also watched many times someone else pumping accelerator and see gas streaming into the intake through the carb.

    Ok, been away for far too long but still nothing with the car starting. I did NOT pull the distributor, so timing is same as it was when I got it. I have primed carb many times - starting fluid and gas. Car REALLY wants to start - seeing smoke coming from snorkel on valve cover to air cleaner...

    I am Ryan and bought my first 87 Regal in December. It was a grandmas car stored for the last 13 years and just sold to me last year. It is a standard 2bl carb v6 with only 74k on the odometer. Anyway I was driving it throughout the winter (when it was dry) and finally took the time to tun it...

    I am Ryan and new member to the site. Bought my first gbody 87 Regal NA v6 in December 2010. Started thinking (when I bought the car) I wanted to build a turbo Regal. That dream has now died with this car and now I WILL perform an LS engine swap instead. Car is not currently running right now...
