Cheerp-Cheerp-Cheerp goes my post. Did I say something wrong? Someone here must have a cam, do you like it? Was it worth the $?
Thanks for the input 87 BlackSami; I have a Cal-Mini header and 2" exhaust with no cat. Stock coming in but I do plan on a snorkle after I fix the head, but I'd really like to leave the factory FI alone if possible. Port and polishing would be limited to a quick and easy cleanup with a dremel. I have had only 1 carbed car in my life and it was a 72 Beetle (my first car) and at 32 years old my memory of carbs is really poor.
I'd love to find a 4.3 turbo for my Track but finding parts for the Ty is hard enough. It's easier to mod the 3.8 in the GN, a little alky injection-boost-tires-and cheap mods nets 12's all day. The Buick motor is forgiving and when it does let go it's just headgaskets. The 4.3 is a little more grumpy and when it lets go its rods shooting out. The Ty's fun though and runs 13.60|removethispart|@98.8 stone stock. The GN is a
little
faster with.................. let's just stop there. Either way the only engine swap in my future would be a 3.3 (Buick's little brother to the 3.8 ) out of a 96 Skylark I have. That's down the road awhile.
lil_truck, I'm from Ionia 1/2 way between GR and Lansing. I'm going to Whitehall on Sun for a little two tracking if you'd care to join in please feel free. We will be meeting at the McDonalds on Colby Rd in Whitehall (a little north of Muskegon) at 9:00 A.M. Sun the 28th. My Track is a 91 LSI with 3" body, 2" susp., header, 2" exhaust w/no cat, centerforce clutch, 29x11.5 SSR's, MT Classic II's, a rollbar fabbed into the rear seatbelt mounts and hoop, bumpers (Prerunner style in the front) built from 2 1/2" tube Front and Rear powdercoated, and sprayed in Viper yellow Duraliner with very ugly black stripes I didn't do. It has 54k org miles 20k of which were spent behind a motorhome. I just can't believe the A/C blows ice cold!!! It has scared just about everyone I know by going over things that make most rears pucker
