What sort of coolant have you been running/ is in the motor? Did you check your oil level and what it looks like? Is your coolant a thick milkshake or is it just dark and brown.

If its straight liquid, its usually cause of stupid dexicol and someone running water instead of coolant. Your more than ...

Use some sort of recordable, high end, GPS verification like Dragy if you want something widely accepted as accurate.

I have a App on my phone that bluetooth connects to a obII reader that grabs data off my PCM. It does log speed as well as all the fancy stuff. Torque something, I paid like 8 ...

Top Speed Run
Second Documented Attempt

Cluster is off 5-10 MPH more than it shows, Different tire size than factory (Shifts from first to second at 55 MPH instead of 45)

No, this isnt street racing. Was Performed on a very wide, extremely ...

There is always a power gain when going to a turbo because it takes 30 horsepower to spin the old M90.

I'm not sure on the fuel rails. He had L67 heads and the stock fuel rails worked in the stock heads.We blocked off the lower intake manifold injector holes.

I'm sure the under hood temps were ...

Square? I would find another shop. Oval has a noticeable decrease in flow from round and square would be worse.


Ill deft check out clearance issues then beforehand. If it is possible without drawbacks (Besides no ac), then it could be sorta cool, and the sound would be interesting, plus decrease ...

Well I was unable to get the headers. Can I be pointed in the right direction as to where I can get a decent pair? Or can I run the rockers with a smaller pulley and be okay?


I would get headers or at least ZZP front power log. I had kept the stock power log on when i had top swapped, and it was ...

Making this for us that want to replicate what that Bonneville did back in the earily 2000s.

So from experence, 4th gear shifts usually happen around 140 MPH. Ive done 150 so far (Recored), But my goal is to see how much till it runs out of gear.

I dont know if anyone has attempted it before ...

Clearing the oil pan, unless it's below the subframe is something I would have to see a pic of. I can't see that working.

Ill try to find some pictures, its been a moment since ive talked to him. If anything, Ill prob attempt it, my local hot rod exhaust shop only wants to charge me 250 dollars ...

F-body upper and lower intakes have been done quite a bit in the past. I helped turbo a Regal back in '08 and my buddy went this route. There are 2 versions of the upper intake, the earlier version points the TB forward and the later version shown in that video doesn't angle the TB. The thermostat ...

I got lucky and found a set of these at a local wrecking yard. I got the pushrods as well. They were on a 2003 Buick regal GS. it also has a header set on it and I am wondering if I should get it along with the rockers. The nose of the SC was taken off, likely because the pulley was undersized and ...

Even if you removed the AC compressor and/or got a smaller starter to make that work, the oil pan is in the way. I don't remember ever seeing this in the past 20 years. Japanese cars do this all the time but the starter is in a different location and the oil pan has a hump to support it.


Yeah ...

Hear me out.

So I was messing around with a F body 3.8 I have, and a decomissioned GTP, and discovered its possible for the F-Body style intakes to bolt on, if you extend a bunch of hoses and what so. But there was no room in those W bodys. Heres where it gets...brainstorming wise.

I recently ...

There used to be one or more east coast Bonneville forums with the north east one being the most active. I've made it as far south as VA Beach in my '95 about 15 years ago. I still own it and hope to get it back on the road in the next year.


Theres a guy in Sumter (I think) that goes by sam. Has ...

Has anyone ever seen a set of headers that instead of wrapping around the block and ontop of the trans to meet the other side, it instead goes directly down and underneath the engine? I had seen a picture awhile back of a bonneville with this setup, and im tempted.

Im over here in the SC/NC part of the East coast, and im new to the forum, but not new to 3800s. Fell in love with these cars, and im hoping if there is at least more than just me here and a friend up in SC.
