aerodynamic buick??? No that's not right....

well even if the buick regal/grand national is completely UN-aerodynamic... it doesnt mean there isn't some physics in play here...

check out the spectre performance intake design on the HotRodRegal.

Eaton Detroit Truetrac install videos
 
time for an update...
Eaton Detroit Truetrac installation into the Nodular Iron Ford 9" third member.
This post has 3 "How To" videos that might help you decide if you want to tackle this upgrade.
Roy Teeter (co-owner of P.E.M. Racing in St. Clair, MO) assembled the third member and Truetrac. Highly recommended!

UMI Performance frame brace
 
Well, I just installed the UMI Performance rear shock tower brace part #3055... I like it, it fit perfect, and it makes sense. In the LSX El Camino my friend Greg is building, he has a completely different coil over shock set up and welded a cross bar to the frame where the shocks would normally mount and used his cross bar as the coil over upper mount point (very custom). I don't have that kind of room and my rear axle set up is not as custom as his... So, this UMI performance bar ties the frame together like his welded in coil over bar. I guess if a person really wanted to, they could weld this bar to the frame for additional rigidity - I won't be welding it though, simply because I like the bolt in application of this product.

This is really a no brainer for the the G-body... anything to stiffen the frame is good.

Ididit steering column replacement for a 88-78 G-body
 
Talked to a few guys with bad tilt columns in their G-bodies. I had a column shift column for my G-body originally and swapped to a floor shift column. but there is a shifter linkage on the stock columns that is not used when using an electronic transmission (4L60e/4l80e). So my solution to these problems was a quick remedy from Ididit Inc. (click link for article and pics)

http://hotrodregal.com/ididit-univer...eering-column/

It's an option that not many G-body guys want to try since we have excellent columns usually... But what if you want something a little more crisp feeling than the stock column? Or (like my situtation) if you have a column shift car and want to switch to a floor shift column? Or if you just have a worn out stock column with a sloppy tilt...a Ididit Universal column or a custom built column is a good option.

hope this helps!
