I may be interested in these.
Do you have a link or info on what upper strut bearing to use with these?

I do not but I need a set. Will be doing this job over the winter.
If you buy and use a set, and then want to sell when done let me know.

More info on the following pkease
Brand new - 034 Header and downpipe (IROZ built - purchased through 034) V band single bung on downpipe, header is coated with Jet Hot (black) - $950

I.E. What turbo? Flange style? Tubular or cast? Etc... pics???

Thanks I'll try Hank first no luck we'll try a FRP.

I am looking for the following valves for my AAN.
ferrea F6027/F6029
They used to be available on eBay all the time but now that I actually want to order some I can't find them. I tried No Limit motorsports in Florida and their website says not available.

Early coupe. Black ext /Blue interior. Auto tranny. I need a bunch of trim off it. If I can find $400 or so in parts people need I'll part it.
Available:
- Fenders, lights (quad), glass (windshield is cracked), tail lights, etc.
- Hatch / boot lid is available but has a little rust bubbling ...

I have a set. Do you need he trim as well? Grill?

I'm also interested in quote to USA.

All these metric couplers and it doesn't look like they have what you need.

But I agree. Just go stainless braided.

any chance you have a Mill as well? I need a brake block for a D2 S8. I think I can source the design.

The the LR engine is anything like the Buick engines, there are large expanses of deck where there are no coolant passages.

It's very common for the turbo sixes to blow a 2-3" long section of head gasket into the valley, retained by the pushrods. Engine still runs, albeit down on a cylinder and ...

Nice, I just got my 03' back on the road and am loving it for kid hauling duty.
How did you get Bluetooth in car with stock deck?

What's it worth to you? I could be convinced to part with one.

Spend the last few nights trying to button up the 03' S8. I'm "So Close" Tranny is in. (Rebuilt the auto, didn't do 6-spd swap. I really hope I did it right and it works when I try to drive it in a few days.)

Got the Timing belt on, motor sealed up. Brakes pads, rotors, Control arms, etc. Cleaned ...

All you need is a piece of sheet metal above the mount to block the radiant heat. Hood vents help too, allows the hot air to escape, and sucks in cool air from below in the process.

Agreed. ON my old 4000 turbo i just cut a plate of heavy gauge stainless, and bent it at a 45degree angle with a ...

Ok,
Head is now Helicoiled and seems fine. I"m bolting up the valve covers tonight, hopefully bolting up the driveline as well after the Tranny Rebuild. Tranny is in, just no driveshafts, etc yet. I want to drive it this weekend!

Thanks for the comments.

Chris, Thats a great point about oil on the thread.
Yes the aluminum is what stripped. When I got about 1/2 way through my 90-degree stroke I felt it get easier all of a sudden. I removed the bolt, inspected, looked ok so reinstalled and tried again. That time it never made torque, just pulled the ...

I will also add that the bolt that stripped was NOT being used to pull the cam down. Cam was fully seated and all bolts for all cams had been cross torqued to 10Nm. This particualar bolt was to cap #4 which was added after seating the cam. I don't think it was a case of user error. ;-)

While reassembling the motor on the D2 S8 last night I looked up the torque spec for the Cam Caps (I had cams out to do tensioner pads & seals while doing the Timing Belt job. According to the factory manual which I found on line here:
m)/relays_and_modules/relays_and_modules_accessories_and ...

There is no way I"d ever run a 19" on an Ur-S. I feel like my 18's are even to big but maybe a lighweight 18 would work ok. I think those may fit but may be tight on the outer lip in the rear if you are lowered. But as I said, they are heavy, and you'll be running like a 245/35 series tire or ...

Seriously though, this is my Thought for the Day.
I've been driving it for over 25k - 30k miles with a known blown headgasket.
It has progressively gotten worse to the point that it now actually blows out the side of the block (Between the Head and Block) enough that I can feel it with my hand ...

It absolutely is an Old Buick motor. Based on the Buick 215ci block.
I'm actually running a Mallory Optical distributor for a Buick 215 in mine. And FORD 302 Injectors.
