IHADAV8 Playground / A Local Gal
« on: December 15 2018, 10:03:51 PM »
Came across a former Winnipegger on the bodyspace site.  Looks like she is doing well for herself.  The picture is of a local sprint car.  They actually had this picture in the local paper.

General Buick Tech / Valve cover gasket?
« on: November 07 2018, 05:20:21 PM »
So the machine shop that did my 4.1 put cork valve cover gaskets on and as usual oil pours out of it! :013:
Does anyone have the part number for the rubber ones with the metal inserts?

IHADAV8 Playground / Question for my American friends?
« on: August 28 2018, 02:11:38 PM »
I see that lots of Replubicans do not like Obamacare or the affordable care act.  Being Canadian it sounds like it would be a good plan.  So what are the things that you don't like about it?  Is the main issue an increase in taxes?

General Buick Tech / RJC boost controller?
« on: August 26 2018, 07:41:05 PM »
Just wondering who all has one and what there thoughts are?  I was going to put mine on today but it would be incredibly hard with the 6468 on there because of the size of the turbo and the small fitting that has to go to the wastegate, so I will have to put a connection on there to make it work.
According to my power logger my boost kicks in at 2800rpm but doesn't get up to full boost till about 4800 rpm.  I guess that isn't too bad with a 68 exhaust wheel and .85 A/R.  Wondering what the RJC will be like on it?

General Buick Tech / Alky Tank Leak?
« on: August 10 2018, 03:01:47 PM »
So, I have 3/4 of the kit installed and I am going to get a buddy to finish it off.  Working nights so I can't spend much time on it.  I put a little methanol in the tank and noticed it is leaking right where the braided line connects to it.  Can you tighten that line?

General Buick Tech / Spark Plugs?
« on: August 06 2018, 11:15:04 PM »
I'm currently running some Delco 43's while I break in the 4.1 but I would like to change plugs.  Thinking of autolite.  What do you guys think or run?

General Buick Tech / Connecting Wideband to Power Logger?
« on: July 26 2018, 09:12:31 PM »
I finally pulled my DS out and put the Power Logger in and got it going.  Loading the drivers was weird I tried a few different methods till I finally got one to work.  And I updated my Laptop, that took an 1 1/2 hours with 134 updates!
I'm going to tackle putting in my 80lb injectors this weekend.  My question is weird did you guys mount the board that connects the wideband to the PowerLogger?  For some strange reason I originally thought it was part of the PL.
Thanks,Nick

General Buick Tech / Power Logger?
« on: July 17 2018, 07:59:44 PM »
So I am finally getting around to installing my Power Logger.  I copied it onto a usb and onto my laptop with windows 7.  When I go to open it the window is only 3/4 of the screen and the full screen in the top right corner is not available.  Andy ideas?  Also is there anything else I need to know?
Thanks,Nick

General Buick Tech / Turbonetics 6465 vs PTE 6766
« on: July 08 2018, 05:04:21 PM »
Came across this, I know it isn't a Buick but it was still interesting to see.https://honda-tech.com/forums/forced-induction-16/precision-67-65-vs-turbonetics-hpc-64-65-dyno-2940852/

General Buick Tech / Oil Pressure?
« on: July 02 2018, 03:00:09 PM »
I know it is like beating a dead horse.  I finally got the 4.1 running and put a new Delco cover on it that I had sitting around for ever.  My oil pressure cold is around 60 if not a bit shy.  I'm thinking since I will probably be revving the engine close to 6500 rpm I might need some more oil pressure going by the 10 psi/1000 rpm rule.  What do you guys think?

General Buick Tech / My 6468
« on: June 19 2018, 11:24:05 AM »
Damn that is one huge biatch!  It makes my old CPT66 look like a stock turbo.  Can't wait to see how it performs!  I was going to post a picture but I have to resize and I lost my old program for doing that.

General Buick Tech / Break in Oil?
« on: June 03 2018, 06:41:31 PM »
I was thinking of just putting in my Pennzoil Race oil.  I was going to use Rotella but I was told that it has more detergent and less ZDP in it.  I have a roller cam so I don't have to worry about that.
What do you guys think?

General Buick Tech / What size is??
« on: June 01 2018, 09:48:28 PM »
What size is the big fitting that screws into the front of the block for the oil return?  Does anyone know?  It is the one that the return line then screws into.
