yup the rear engine/trans was still in there from the toronado trofeo, 90 LN3 3800.

the 442 is ready to drive to al's place once we bolt the subframe mounts back in then the ciera comes in...

i've got craploads of pics, including the new parts for the fuel systems (-10 fatman logs, aeromotive Afpr, gauges1/2in & 3/9ths alum lines....A1000)

practically sponsored by DP

found out why the rear LN3 didnt start (wanted to do a vid)
aparently some rodent dragged half a 10 inch pizza into the rear and ate wires as well, here's the PCM

some new toys


the two sets pf PS headers should be in soon these are my fix to the issue that allows the napa clamp tto be used at the same time, sealed and unmoving like a welded xover but able to disassemble unlike a welded set, i might start selling "fixed" PS's lol

hows this then...

here's the 90 LN3 3800 and 440T4, the extra plumbing is the checkvalve manifold and lines for the remco trans circulation pump (for flat towing cars etc)

fuel system was 2 minutes to block off the rear feed...major changes coming to the fuel system the front pump is now an A1000 feeding through -8 tube to the -8 Y and the -10 rails back to the regulator, then -6 tube return. the rear will use the some of the -6 lines used now and the older (pre A1000)aeromotive pump with plumbing reworked for the -10 rails and aeromotive Afpr. after a bit of time we plan for another A1000 to feed the rear L67 and use the smaller aeromotive pump for feeding the nitrous systems.
bye bye marine fuel cell!, a new fuel cell is gonna get welded up that will give us more room and hopefully 25 gallons capacity along with 3 sumps/returns, baffles, and a fuel level sender!
we've decided to use the trofeo subframe another year so we'll be working out the 4T80e & L67 solid motor plates on it and then doing final work on the 93 GP subframe and change out alot of the rear cagework/ subframe mounts.
Al is at a xroads with that...we either use the dual piston calipers of the 1st gen W body with an OE subframe or make a whole custom subframe with a much nicer and lighter reworking of the chassis tubing and heavy subframe connector tubes (2x4x1/4" tube heheh)
he also wants to redo the inner fenders...again (3rd time) this time...unboltable lol
he's ordered a jegs 3" univ dual exhaust setup so we can run the final exhaust system once the Pacesetter headers arive and we start modifying them (EGR delete, porting/rewelding, and my Pacesetter fixes)
for now though its back on the road...single L67... Al says its fun as hell but sucks that the rear is raked so high, i told him to just drive it while we fix the 88 cutty ciera, but he hates road salt so i dont think he will...
now the Ciera is getting its 2.8 and 125c pulled so we can toss in the 440t4 and fix a couple oil leaks on the 2.8 and toss it back in. its beat to hell (200k) but damn is it reliable...
as for al's 100$ 96 lumina APV van...(i seem to help keep his heaps on the road alot lol) its 3400 is f%&$^d external coolant leak at the head gasket, among other things (damnit so much for 100$ Jyard haulin van lol)
soooo even though he gave me the 90 LN3 i figure why not throw the 95 SI L67 top end i have on it and throw a SI high compression L67 in the front of the van we can run it with an OBDII harness...i dont think he's listening to me though...lol
