Re: Slightly Modified Gran National
Those are some serious hair dryers on that puppy.
We used to have a few guys in our Buick club who were pushing the envelope with their GNs.
One guy was trying to get a refrigerated liquid intercooler to work...wild stuff.
Of all the cars I've owned I miss my turbo Buicks the most.

Man, I bet that thing sucks LOL.
OK Soo How many bars of atmosphere dose it make ( Boost )
Pretty cool , a 9 or 10 second daily driver. I bet the Ice Cream dos'nt melt on the way home from the market with this thing .
We did some interviews 4 the Pinks Las Vegas Show . They had us there 4 exibition passes durind their down time..... we used them to test . The interviews hit the editing floor LOL ... oh well . At the time it was their largest payout ever ... something like 25 K / winner take all type of deal.
Sooo , Can you set a ten dollar bill on the dash & bet the passanger cant reach it on the leave ??? I 'd bet you couldn't even reach it at the Hit ok.
Factory Hot Rods are great !!

Here's a few pics of the 87 GN and the 87 Turbo T that I had.
The GN had 70k miles on it when I bought it and the Turbo T had 45k miles on it.
The Turbo T was actually faster and I ran a 13.06 with it in factory trim...and I was pretty conservative at the track.
Maybe one day I'll own another....when I'm in my 60s. :roll:

This was taken at Infineon Raceway in Sonoma Ca the only thing that disappointed me about this car is he pulled the Buick engine, whats in the picture is a small block Chevy (of course all aluminum)but it was running 8's,I guess thats all that matters.
Steve that T type was sweet, not that your GN wasn't gorgeous but I had one in 95-97 87 GN it had the fact alloys like the T type a few Dennis Kirban parts posi and a shift kit and the best was the little filler for the third brake light that said UDLOSE when the brake came on.Rat Rod said:Here's a few pics of the 87 GN and the 87 Turbo T that I had.
