For sale is my Pro-Street 1971 Buick Skylark that's tastefully dressed & badged as a 1970 Buick GS Stage 2. Engine: 350ci with Twin Turbo's Transmission: Built TH350 Rearend: Richmond 4.56 Two video's available on YouTube: i8VzPjolS_E and YZ13Kx5XnT4 This car runs and drives great, and is street legal. The engine is a freshly rebuilt Buick 350 with less than 100 miles on it. It has ported heads, Poston 114 cam, roller rockers, aluminum intake, blow through Holley 650 with full annular swap, aftermarket metering blocks, new baseplate with 4 corner idle, and tri-y turbo headers. It has a chrome high amp alternator, HEI distributor with vacuum advance/boost retard, an MSD CD ignition box with rev limiter, and Taylor 8mm wires. It has an Aeromotive A1000 fuel pump, Mallory boost referenced bypass regulator flowing from an RCI 16 gallon cell in the trunk. It also has the TA Performance high volume oil pump.The short block is all stock but has a big crank and a deep true y-block, making it amazingly tough. It has an aluminum radiator with an electric 2 speed fan that keeps it nice and cool. The turbos are 50mm hybrids running through a 2 in 1 out style intercooler. It has twin 35mm wastegates and dual blow off valves to protect the cold side piping when coming off boost. It has full mandrel bent 3" exhaust on each side feeding stainless perforated tube race mufflers. The turbos are very well matched and because they are hybrids there is essentially no lag between throttling up and accelerating. With the conservative 8psi tune it runs great on 93 octane pump gas, which is all I have ever used. The transmission is a strong TH350 that has alto reds, kolene steels, stage 2 shift kit, extra frictions, a 3800rpm 9" nitrous converter, and has a stand alone trans cooler with a 10" fan. The converter isn't too loose on the street, but hits really hard when you want it to. The shifter is a B&M dual lockout Pro-Stick with a .44 magnum revolver cylinder handle (it holds real rounds). The driveshaft has heavy duty universals. The rearend is a shortend 10 bolt upgraded with a Richmond 4.56 ring & pinion and zytanium locker. The back half suspension is hung from 1/8" wall 2x3" rectangular steel. It features Camaro/Nova monoleafs for excellent comfort on the street, and true & tried track performance. It has custom traction bars integrated into the spring plates. The 6 point roll bar is .135 wall 1 3/4" steel. It has Summit racing bucket seats with a driver's side RCI harness. It has a Grant woodgrain/ polished aluminum steering wheel. The aluminum dash is full of Autometer Sport Comp gauges and Innovate wideband AFR system for on the fly tuning info. The bumpers, hood, fenders and trunk lid are all VFN fiberglass. Some of the pictures have the "GSX" stickers on the rear fenders and trunk lid but I removed them and installed OEM "GS" and "Stage 2" emblem's. The core support is fabricated aluminum and drops about 25lbs off the nose. The battery is in the trunk. There isn't anything under the hood that doesn't need to be there. It easily overpowers the huge 32x17.5" Mickey Thompson ET's going 30mph. At part throttle this car is quiet and mellow. At about 1/3 throttle the turbos start to whine and stacks up a few psi in the bonnet. At around 1/2 throttle it gets really fun. But at full throttle / full boost, this car launches straight as an arrow and with an aggressively mean roar. I took it to the drag strip once and my best run was 7.73 in the 1/8 mile. Although the exterior is solid there are a few scratches and the windshield has a crack in it. The interior is okay except for the driver's side door panel is missing and the rear seat has a couple splits. This car is really clean and mean and it is being sold as is with no warranty. I am not interested in trading it for a Chevelle, GTO, 442, Camaro, Mustang, Cuda, Harley, etc. because I already have a new project I'm working on. That is the reason why I'm selling this one. I am extremely confident that the new owner will thoroughly enjoy this powerful muscle car as much as I have. Please feel free to email me if you have any questions. Thank your for your interest and good luck bidding! |

GM laying off 510 amidst slow Cadillac, small car sales
Wed, 12 Nov 2014General Motors is laying off about 510 workers from two factories beginning in January, and it could be months before the automaker needs some of that latent capacity to come back on line. A combination of poor sales and high dealer inventories are prompting the cutbacks, according to Automotive News.
The largest changes come at GM's Lansing Grand River plant, where the Cadillac ATS and CTS are made. An entire shift of about 350 workers is being laid off, but the automaker hopes to find positions for some of them at other nearby factories. The decision leaves just a single shift building vehicles there. According to Automotive News, the move is partially spurred by Johan de Nysschen's plan to make Cadillac a more exclusive brand.
The lost shift will likely return for production of the next-generation Chevrolet Camaro at the plant, according to the report, but GM isn't saying when that will be. A previous announcement from the Canadian Auto Workers union indicated that the Oshawa, Ontario, factory would lose the coupe in late 2015 or early 2016.
GM recalling over 243,000 crossovers over possible seat belt defect
Tue, 17 Aug 20102010 Buick Enclave - Click above for high-res image gallery
The summer of 2010's recall hit parade continues unabated today, with General Motors having just announced that it is asking 243,403 owners of its 2009-2010 Lambda crossovers to bring their three-row haulers in for inspection. The culprit? Second-row seat belts in select Buick Enclave, Chevrolet Traverse, GMC Acadia, and Saturn Outlook CUVs have "failed to perform properly in a crash."
According to GM, a second-row seat-side trim piece is to blame, as it can impede the upward rotation of the buckle after the seat is folded flat. As a result, if the buckle makes contact with the seat frame, cosmetic damage can occur, potentially requiring additional force to operate the buckle properly. So far, no great shakes, but in the process of applying that additional force, the occupant may push the buckle cover down to the strap, potentially revealing and depressing the red release button. As a result of this, the belt may not latch, or in certain cases, it may actually appear to be latched when, in fact, it isn't.
GM recalling 2013 Buick LaCrosse, Cadillac SRX over transmission software
Thu, 21 Mar 2013The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued recalls for the 2013 Buick LaCrosse and 2013 Cadillac SRX due to a problem with the software for the transmission controller. On about 27,000 SRX and LaCrosse models, the transmission could accidentally be shifted to Sport mode, which would reduce the amount of engine braking drivers experience.
NHTSA says this could increase the risk of a crash, but, fortunately, the required fix is simply an update to the software.
While we're on the subject of General Motors vehicle recalls, a small number (48) of compressed natural gas versions of the 2011 Chevrolet Express are also being recalled for a potential risk of fire or explosion. Yikes. Both official recall notices are posted below.
