For Sale/Trade/Want To Buy / ta49 turbo and ported stock elbow for sale

« on: February 20 2016, 09:04:58 PM »

I have a used TA49 turbo I bought a couple years ago and never installed it.  Its just been sitting packaged up in a box on a shelf.
I bought it off the tb.com board from a member that said it was like brand new.  I made a offer without the inlet bell and wastegate, bought it, and when it arrived it does have a little bit of side-to-side shaft play .   Very minor, but nevetheless, I can feel it.   There is no in-out play.
see thread here

I'll take $650 shipped to the lower 48.  I'll have to get a quote for Canada shipping.

I also have a stock ported exhaust elbow ported by none other than Throttlebodys. net that I never installed. 
I'll take $70 shipped for it.
or I'll throw it in with the turbo for $50.

General Buick Tech / is there a way to match the engine to the vin?

« on: October 13 2015, 04:17:01 PM »

I'm trying to find out how to match the VIN number to the block to be able to tell if its a "numbers matching" buick.
I'm not 100% positive its even possible with our cars, but thought I remembering someone saying once that you can.
I do know about the VIN being in the rear of the frame.
thanks!

For Sale/Trade/Want To Buy / The nicest Grand National period, for sale

« on: July 27 2015, 12:42:20 AM »

came across the nicest grand national for sale, period, on ebay.  So I thought I'd give the seller a hand and get the word out.
according to the description, all it needs is hood struts, speedometer and a power antenna,  but if you can afford the 65,000 dollar price tag, you could probably swing the extra cash for the parts.

General Buick Tech / rarest original owner type item I've seen yet!

« on: February 27 2015, 03:40:22 PM »

hey remember when you'd get a cassette tape with your new GM car back in the 80's?
Usually was the owners manual on it and some songs.  I remember the one my dad got with his Oldsmobile.
Who here has ever seen or have one for our turbo buicks?
heres a 84 on ebay.

What options are out there right now for bolt-on, stock location single muffler exhaust systems?
Not interested in the hooker or the pypes, or the single shot.

The only one off the top my head I know if is the RJC exhaust
