Leave a message on Neal's machine with a phone number, he'll get back to you.

All's well. I just got a hold of him, and everythings kool. 17

Have you done exhaust yet? Need the growl to match the bite.

[Gary Wells]

Yep, was the first mod done, SS THDP, TH 2 way cat, hooker Cat Back with hooker Aerochambers.

That sounds great. Maybe I'll get to see it someday.
Remember when installing the rear seat braces, to
have the car supported on a lift or jackstands. After the install
when its back on all fours, the braces will be pre-loaded.

Maybe that where I fucked up... well, actually, my first mistake was buying the Kenne Bell sheet metal one...

I wouldn't bet on that, Brian. I know some people that liked the Kenne-Bell one more than the Kirban one, but I called a while back, and they had virtually nothing left for Buicks.

Sadly enough, Kenne-Bell is more about Fords and Dodge these days.

Update: Update;
Ok, yesterday, I took the car to Tim Lee of Don Lee Auto in Rancho Cucamonga, Ca. and had them install the missing # 3 & 4 lower & GNX upper body bushings,  Kirban front & rear springs, Kirban rear seat brace, Kirban front frame braces, & the connecting frame brace, & viola, the car is now considerably more responsive in the handling aspect. Made a world of difference. labor cost was 6 hours @ $69 an hour, or $ 414 total. After watching them install everything, there was nothing there that I wished that I would have done myself to save the money. Between the cost of the parts and the labor, I can really say that it was money well spent, and I can honestly say that short of upper & lower rear control arms and a set of GNX replica 16" rims & matching tires, I am pretty much done with the suspension, unless I decide to get into exotica such as rear discs, which might come later. Car is much more enjoyable to drive than when I first started. Well, back to the motor, got the Thunderfab intercooler the other day, and all I am waiting on is the Thunderfab passenger side mounting bracket & then the Thunderfab intercooler will go on. Hopefully, the bracket comes in today's shipment, and then I am off to lou's tomorrow morning for installation. Boy, I see Champion smog ported irons looming up in the near future. Maybe a small cam?

Good for you!  I know it makes the car much more enjoyable to drive.

Alright! I'm looking at an Isky myself, just to be different.

Which one ?

[Top Speed]

Dare to be different!

I have an Engle cam in all my cars, just to be different.    :supz: Custom grind, of course...  :rofl;
