I put that mod on my 98 Silverado a few years ago. It's super easy and well worth the time. It made a huge difference in the ability to see when driving at night.

She's a sweetheart. I noticed her 71 Skylark has a 70 grill. cool

Like your attention to detail and cleanliness. Good job, thanks for your video

Just found your channel looking for new TA Performance videos. Great job on the video's. I guess I should watch the rest of them to get current. I did notice one thing that Tim at TA told me when I was ordering parts and that is if you use the new intake manifold gasket style and remove the valley pan that you need to modify parts of the old valley pan or they sell a lifter cover modification to keep oil where it needs to be? Hopefully they shared that information with you with the new manifold gasket set. Thank you 👍

Do you have to hook up the vacuum line on the regulator that goes to intake

Great video!! Can't wait!!

How did the rails hold up, any leaks or anything?

Times would have been nice. What's the point

Hope you don’t mind I’m gonna borrow that same concept and build exactly what you did

Where does the crunch sleeve go

Where did you get the timingchain cover and waterpump from ? Do you have the part number?

Awesome!!!!

Gonna be bigger and badder this year!

Excellent video

Do yourself a favor and get the Ratech Smart Sleeve 11001. It's worth the $11. I keep a couple on hand just because. Nice video, you do good work.

Hi.. Did the one relay do both headlights ?

Did you put that 454 in yourself?

Great Job, and you explained it Perfectly.

When did Tom Wagner’s ‘69 Wildcat run?

Hey so stupid question... I just bought an 88 and I'm not sure if the lights are both burnt out. I've never had a vehicle that has a strange button setup for the lights instead of a lever. How do you turn the high beams on 😂

thank you for the videos

I like the show, but have alot of questions concerning your car and why you chose a Buick Gran Sport, or elected to build one anyway. I come from a Buick heritage and family, and am just starting to build a 1966 Skylark, I built one years ago, but certainly didn't have the money to modify the engine and don't really have it now,but I am determined to get it built and slightly modified for a restomod for the street. Good luck and keep up the videos and keep the car, they are very special and very fast for what they were.

True love! Fanning him with the door

Awesome! Working on turning my 71 Skylark into a 11 second car. Had the chance to race at South Mountain. Cool track!

What year and what car did this transmission come out of? I’m asking because in my area I see cores for sale all day and I want to buy a few and build them. TH400 Chevy the ones to get? What do I look when looking to buying one?

Loving this series! Hard to find people working on 455 buick engines on here in detail like this. Keep them coming.

What to do if you didnt mark the bearing caps and dont remember their orientation? Great video btw!

Great job! Wish I could have made it this year but living 2,500 miles away creates problems. I was a member of the GSCA very early - member #213. Took my brand new '86 GN to the Nationals when they were basically laughed at...until I started beating some big blocks. Who knew back then what that little V6 was capable of? A GS owner for 45 years...had lots of them. Current car is a '66 GS with a 464 Stage 2.

I’m wanting to make a lot of power with my 5.3 ls 80lb injectors & a single turbo, will these fuel rails hold up with my setup?

Stage 1 valve head, you can tell by the valves almost touching each other, doesn't look like the valves are unshrouded though like factory stage 1, it looks like stage 1 valves were added 😎

"Promo sm"

throw away or weld those axel tube clamps. If you make any power at all they will slip constantly.

As a 71 Skylark owner, I love the way you showcase these great cars. Jenna's Skylark is really going well.

You go girl

My favorite channel

hey bud i had the samething happend to my pinoin chipped the end tooth off , did you still use that gear or did you replaced it, i noticed that it dosent contact anything on the where pattern.

Love the channel. Can't wait to see more. Keep them coming.

... EXCELLENT Job and Explanatory Information. I'm VERY happy that Mr. BOOSTED_JROD knows His_Stuff, and you both are on the Right_Track. During the Video, I was thinking that you probably would need to Raise the Idle on the new Holley_950 Carburetor after the 3000-3200_Stall Torque Converter Install like I had to do. My Idle was @ 400_RPM lower after my 9.5_Inch 3000-3200_Stall Converter was Installed. Keep up the excellent work, and God Bless and Deliver you both as well as your Family and friends. 💯🙂👍🏼🎬

Love the music and the content. Thank you.

I'm a little new to drag racing and one of the difficult things for me has been finding the right convertor...gone through 2 off the shelf that were just plain terrible. I'm having one custom built right now so I have pretty much gave up the month of July. My problem was the opposite according to the convertor guy..not enough and the car was just so lazy for the first 150 ft or so. What do you think of the price of tranny fluid ?...I thought I might have to remortgage the house.

Awesome!!

Are those ls1 injectors

This is all modified stuff, simple, clean, and useless. I need to know how that mass of wiring that is jammed between the engine, bellhousing, and firewall goes back together on an '89 K25.

Awesome I’m had to hear the boost and the safe stopping is a plus lol

Great day at the track for you guys! Solid runs, I think the intake swap may hurt the 60 foot unless matched with a bigger cam.

I looked up the factory wiring diagram (I have a 94 Suburban) to figure out how to do this without the kit. Figured it out (I am an electronics engineer). According to the diagram, this looks like it will work (I haven't done it yet because I don't have the quick-splice connectors yet, but I did verify that the wire colors are as shown in the factory diagram, so I have no reason to believe it won't work)... Where the high-beam switch is on the steering column (it's down pretty low, very easy to access) you'll see 4 wires going to the connector to the switch. 1 yellow (this is the power that is provided by the headlight switch), 1 tan (this goes to the low-beam lights), and 2 green (one is for high beam lights and one for the high-beam indicator light in your dash cluster). To do this same exact mod without the relay, you just splice the yellow (hot but only when headlights are on) and the tan (low beams) with a wire shunt between them. You can use 2 quick-splice connectors to eliminate the need for stripping and soldering and taping and all that. Anyhow, simply connect a piece of appropriate wire (like what is it, 22 gauge?) to connect the yellow with the tan. That way, whenever there is power supplied to the circuit (yellow, via the headlight switch), the low beams are always energized regardless of the state of the high-beam switch. Another benefit of this mod is that the lights will not momentarily blink off when you switch from low to high or vice versa, which is how the high-beam switch normally works (break before make). And if the high-beam selector switch ever breaks, you'll never lack at least your low beams since they are now bypassing that switch.

I have an 8.8 that was recently rebuilt. But, when you let off the gas, there is a loud howl. Its quiet otherwise. What is causing this? Backlash or pinion preload error? Or something else?

Great video, seeing so many fast Buicks encourages me to get working on my 71 Skylark! Nicely done.

Cool! Some of the new electric cars are fast, but they'll never have that sweet sound! The blue Buick is bad-ass!

Off into sunset? Man it doesn't get any better!
