      New member from Las Vegas

      Hello guys

      Im Bill from Las Vegas. I have a 65 Buick Rivera I am building. Going with the PT look. Its still pushing the 425 Nailhead. I would like to get a EFI set up for the car. Motor is fresh, tranny too. I am running 2" lower springs from Eaton & Kanter. Havent drivin her too much since shes back on the road. But I may end up on airbags? Anyone know a thing or 2 about Airbags or EFI for this cursed 1 year only car (in too many respects)

      Thanks

      Bill

      Hi Bill from Las Vegas, welcome.

      I know a thing or two about air bags (doing custom air ride since 1995). Never done your year Buick, but have done alot of other cars. If you need some tech info I can help you out.

      And how about some pics?

      Welcome abaord. We have a 65 project car but it has been back burner for a while. Fuel injecting it will require a complete custom set up and modified intake, but should be no big deal. We just need to come up with a electronic distributor. We can put together a air ride system.

      Thanks for the replies, I will post some pics this weekend when I get my car out of the garage. I just ordered some bozeforged 18's & 20's. need to get my back spacing figured out this weekend. What do you guys think about the new air ride Kit thing? all the compresser & tank in one housing? How about a rear disc brake kit?

      He means the Air pod. Coolest thing ever. Will make installation a fast job. For rear disc you going to need to have the axle housing ends changed to something more user friendly like Big Ford, Chevy, I would do Big FOrd Torino ends.

      Do you mean for the rear disc set up. Would it be a lot of work to do a 96 impala SS rear end? it still 5 on 5. Already ordered the wheels.
