Item:

1. Taylor Pro Race 10.4mm 409 wires. Coil pack is new along with coil module.

2. Siemens/Delphi 55 lbs injectors. Custom maid billet fuel rails from Ross Machine Racing. These guys made the rails for me and now they sell them from their web site. Notice the engine in their web site graphic and fuel rail compare pics. I wanted to make sure I never have a fuel delivery problem. This is why I went with larger rails to remove any fuel restriction in the environment. The fuel lines are all braided steel with Earls fittings throughout. There are 2 supply lines and one return from the fuel cell to the engine. I have this setup in a "Y" for now by the engine to allow it to run on either pump for fail over. There are 2 Aeromotive A1000 pumps near the cell to supply the fuel. One runs all the time and the other is setup to use a hobbs pressure switch to come on at a pre-defined boost level. I have not even needed the second pump at this point but I have never pushed the car hard enough to need it. If you get to a point where you run high boost then you can plumb each pump to supply fuel to one rail each and you should have more than enough volume.

3. Aeromotive A1000 regulator to control fuel pressure. True billet regulator was designed specifically for use with the A1000 Fuel Pump. Base pressure (vacuum/boost disconnected) adjustable from 30 to 70 PSI. Two -10 AN inlet ports, one -6 AN return port and 1/8" NPT gauge.

4. Wilwood brakes proportioning valve to control pressures applied to the front brakes. The brakes are manual style and do not have a power brake booster. You could add this if wanted by using the factory style AMC booster. The rear brakes are Wilwood disc brakes with calipers and rotors. The front brakes are AMC standard drum brakes with all new parts including hoses. All of the steel brake lines have been replaced. The rear brakes do most of the work and front are setup to assist. I have not got around to adding front disc but it is on the list. Depending on what you wanted to spend you could replace the entire front suspension with a street rod or race car setup using rack and pinion and all that good stuff.

5. Line locks for burn outs to avoid heating up the rear discs. Roll control button located on the console inside the car.

6. The engine is a Buick v6 3.8 Liter. The motor was built Keeland Automotive Machine in Houston. The engine uses billet main caps on the two center mains. ARP studs on the mains to hold the crank. ARP studs on the heads. The engine is balanced and blue printed and built within Buick tolerances. The cam profile is a little larger than stock. The timing cover is a high volume oil pump type to supply more oil volume than stock. Cam button is installed to stop the cam from rubbing into the timing cover. TRW forged pistons that are .030 over stock. The crank is standard main and rod bearing sizes. The crank is the factory forged unit that comes with the turbo block. The piston rods are also forged factory style rods. The heads use LT1 valve springs and are cleaned up a little. They currently have stock size valves installed. Competition cams rocker arm shafts are installed to eliminate the cracking that happens on the factory shafts.

7. Billet alternator bracket from Champion Racing Heads for non a/c cars. This allows the use of one belt to drive everything and not need the extra factory brackets and assembly. If you wanted to add a/c back on this car you could put the factory style aluminum bracket assembly on and the compressor. This is not a factory a/c car so you would need to do all the other work for the rest of the system.

8. High pressure hoses on all connections for the air intake system. Stock location race V4 intercooler from Charged Air Systems (CAS). This is a very large intercooler that hangs down below to catch fresh air under the car. You have to be careful when driving the car to make sure you don't run over something tall that can damage the intercooler. More info versus stock IC.

9. Large 3 core heavy duty radiator that is the same size as a Grand National so if you need to replace then it is easy to find. This radiator is about a year old that is in the car now. The car does not have a over heating problem even in the Texas summers we have down here.

10. The turbo is a PT51 with a quick spool exhaust housing from Precision Turbo and Engine. Click the link to see all the specifications for the turbo. The car does not have any turbo lag because of the 3000 rpm stall converter and quick spool exhaust housing. The exhaust is also very free flowing on the car.

11. The exhaust is 4" mandrel bent all the way out the back. Coming from the turbo exhaust side it uses a small part of a Terry Houston down pipe that is flared to fit the 4" ID pipe. The car sounds good and a lot of people think it is a V8 when idling. You can hear the turbo spool from inside and it is loud out the back when you hammer down on it. For street driving their is minimal drone on the inside but there is some. There is not a muffler on the car but it is not very loud. This helps with exhaust flow and turbo spooling. All of the fittings on the exhaust are MIG welded together. There are a few places you could add a 4" muffler in the exhaust stream so that it is not a big deal to add one later.
