SRTurbo04 Posted December 12, 2008 Report Share Posted December 12, 2008 Otherwise I'll probably start gutting it tomorrow. Please do, I just read 3 pages of what ur gonna do... I wanna see this thing, heard good things about ur last turbo buick so looking forward to this one man god luck. Side note I don't know how good the elcamino is with traction ,but do you forsee any issues once it gets full spool on ur turbo you want to run?

kenny Posted December 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2008 Nah, it will hook. It's a G-Body and they're not as light in the rear as they look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam1647545489 Posted December 12, 2008 Report Share Posted December 12, 2008 Nah, it will hook. It's a G-Body and they're not as light in the rear as they look. I have seen people take the tailgate off of the caminos and fill them full of concrete to get some more weight in the rear. Crazy shit to see but it sure did work.

Crazy shit to see but it sure did work. That's a solid idea. I don't think I'll have to go that far, but something to consider if I need to add weight to the rear.

kenny Posted December 18, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 RJC head gaskets should be here tomorrow, all I need to do is tap the block for the turbo oil return and that one is ready to go in. Need to get the Regal over here so I can gut it, but I need to clean up shit in the garage first, so who knows when I'll start that. Still need to order motor mounts and a gas tank. Me and Ricky owned that shit in like 3hrs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
