This is my '87 Buick Grand National. It has an SG1 short block in it w/21 k. The car is originally only 102k. The tranny has been rebuilt and uses a 2800 (restalled D5)converter in it. 8.5" rear w/3.42's. Got rid of the crappy powermaster brake system and replaced it with a reliable vacuum booster setup.

Now the good stuff, Precision TE-60 turbo (24-25psi), 009 injectors (42.5#), adj fuel regulator, Walbro 340 inline pump, Lubrant street chip (20*/93oct), poston 3" downpipe, no cat, hooker cat back, manual boost controller, 9" K&N, air bag in the rear (15psi pass side)DIY alcohol injection kit.

As you can tell it needs a paint job and interior to be finished. I have the carpet but it'll also need a headliner. The rest of the interior is in really nice condition.
THE BUICK IS SOLD! I'm gonna miss this car!
One thing about this car was with the paint and interior all bad looking it was a total sleeper. Well as much as a sleeper as a GN can be, however a lot of people don't know what they are and seeing this beat up looking thing didn't give them a clue as to it's performance!
