All about the Gray Ghost

Unscrew it...and there's an o-ring. Has cracks or it's shrunk...it'll cause a high BLM.

Brad, pressure drops from 45 to almost 35

I likely have more cam duration...so I`d have less vacuum...and slightly higher pressure.

On the white T, pressure would drop 4-5 with the vacuum line on a stock cam. 


Changed the fuel return o-ring at the FPR but weather is nasty.  I'll post up a log when the weather clears.  On the bright side, pressure is only dropping 4-5 psi now with the vacuum line on... We'll see

Hopefully the BLM's fall into line. Mine typically run around 118 on my engines.

A part off the Ghost showed up at the house today - which was sent unsolicited and without a single fee (from Texas!).  It is reassuring and humbling to see that there are still generous and thoughtful people in the world.  Thanks again!

No worries... Oh and the fuel rail is from the barn motor but the regulator is off the ghost!

Had all the weather you could think of today.  Went to work in the rain at 34 degrees.  Halfway to work, it turned to sleet and by the time I was at the office it turned to huge snow flakes.  Sun was out by noon and on the drive home it was 57 degrees.  Roads dried up, so the ghost came out of the barn to let the ECM learn.  I am pleased to have a starting point now although I don't plan on running her hard.... yet!  Getting things and ideas together for the barn motor build. 

Here's the latest log at idle.  Thanks for the help fellas!

Cold and damp yesterday.  Got a fire going in the old stove in the barn and after it warmed up a bit in there, started work on the antenna.  Tore the antenna down and replaced the broken cable. Cleaned out the old grease and sealant.  Lubed it all back up and then sealed it.  Installed bolts in place of the rivets and then checked functionality before reinstalling in the fender.  For the first time since owning 2 turbo Buicks, I have an operational power antenna... Now let's see how long it lasts!

Removed my antenna for weight reduction and less wind resistance.

I understand that!



The ghost is more of a daily driver than a strip vehicle.  I enjoy listening to WBAP while driving to and from work and jamming to some classic rock when cruising the streets.

I've got the 2 gauge panel TR Custom face plate where the stereo use to be. Trans temp...and something else beside it. Can't remember what.

That reminds me... Someone posted a video of a guy showing off his cars acceleration and the other guy was like " ok that's enough!"  Anyway, in the video you can see he has 4 gauges across the top of the radio along with a huge tach. Also has 2 guage pod on the pillar.  I've been looking around for a something like what I saw in the video for the 4 guage pod and can't seem to find anything like it.  It may be custom

I've seen a vertical 3 gauge pod in that location. Some guy had them for sale a while back on TB.COM. I've got the 3 gauge A pillar...two in the console...and two in the custom radio face plate. Can't here anything in my car with the T-Tops rattling...win d noise...and the ATR exhaust...so no sense having a radio.

Evil on the big board was making them Jason. If you feel like trying to make one I have one you can copy.
