Welcome to my page about my 1985 Buick Grand National. I have owned this car for about 3 years now and love it to death.

I have done a lot of work to get it to where it is now....

...and it's still not done! The question is: Will it ever be?

I just installed a new BRF-code Transmission that I had on my floor with an ACC 2800-stall-speed converter. Made a night and day difference from that old KCF.

After I run this setup, on which I plan for mid 12s, I will begin my quest for 11s with no intercooler!

Enjoy....
