the guy that has helped us out in our hour of need , cause these things are to say the least are "qwerky", has 75 gn's in various states of condition and 4 gnx's... Not to mention every part off of these cars 20 fold. I guess we'll be painting a few of those 75 as payback!

with the m/c on that adapter, the ratio is changed that you dont need assist(so we've been told )..had to drill new hole in brake pedal arm.
doing final tune sun and going to tape the dyno run ...so i'll put it up asap.

Nice! I'm a G-bod fan, too. Too bad GM never came out with a crate motor for the GN V6.
What are the specs on the wheels/tires?
