Project Al stage 2 TA 308 has begun

yeah

I know Alan but the one in there has a few cracks and I have Franks repop ready to go in once the new motor is back in.

fram

I know that's what I keep hearing about fram. The motor I pulled out still runs great. I started with a fram and valvoline 10w-30 and have never had any issues that I'm aware off. The new motor won't have a fram.

I'm just amazed at how clean the engine bay is after 15 years of duty. Not a drop of oil or grease anywhere.

Looking good. :TU:

Thank you AMP !

Made it back in time to watch the Patriots get blasted. I can't say enough good things about the whole crew at AMP. Top notch service and making you feel right at home. 18 Hour drive one-way and I would not hesitate to do it again. A truly awesome experience thanks to AMP.

Here's the link from Amp's website http://www.automachperf.com/buickdyno.html

Good to see you got home Greg. So when do I get to come see the motor?

 

Clean up for stage 2

 

getting close

 

here she goes

 

Thats so cool man !Yes!!!:bglasses:

 

Thanks Fastest430. Yeah, I'm having a hard time getting anything down because I just stand there and stare.

She's in. New TA engine mounts, TA Stage 2 jet hot headers and deep sump SRE oil pan. Everything has fit perfect so far.

 

Tri Shield Performance T400 with the works and custom 4000 stall converter.

 

New fuel system mounting on custom bracket. Mallory 140 pump and fram filter with #8 braided line to inner pass fender wall mounted regulator. Current battery setup in the trunk from M.A.D. which needs rewired along with the whole rest of the car. Current state of interior which needs some Buick buckets (seeking in the parts wanted section).

Lookin good kid!!!! Long time coming!!! Now the neighbors will be looking at you a little differently with that 308 bothering them all summer!!!! Are we running an exhaust or turndowns after the headers? If the ansewer is an exhaust then we need to take a ride before it goes off to the shop!!!!
Keep on wrenching!!!

 

Did they dyno the motor for you? Did you go with the te's or se's. Nice job it looks great.

 

Hey Johnno,
There will be an exhaust but not until after some open header action for sure. If the neighbors pictures fall of the walls I'll tell them they need to secure them better!
