My name is Chip

I deleted my FB about 18 months ago and my friend sent me this link. FB is gay and forums are not.

For years I fully drank the koolaid on FB and made memes each friday including the Octopumpy james bond ripoff if Matt still has it.

I am also a semi-pro efi tuner (day job is developing med device software) and was the first guy to post a terminatorx tune. I have a fair amount of experience and hope I can be of help.

I had a 84 GN with a swapped 6.0 7875 4l80e sloppy combo that I street drove for 7 years and 50k+ miles that I sold to a guy in PA earlier this year. Currently working on putting another sloppy combo in a 1 owner 71 buick GS I got on craigslist.

Here's a bonus photo of the GN at 5250ft elevation in Walker Pass, CA on new years day after driving through the snow to get there.

Owner bought it new at the buick dealer in santa monica in 71 and she died in december at 99. 100% original when I got it a few months ago but its a weird car

Real GS but manual drum brakes, manual steering, bench seat - basically not a single option other than being a GS

So far I've added power brakes, ripped the carpet out, and started replacing the body bushings. Of course I also impatiently bought a craigslist 4l80, another 7875, and most of the parts for the swap.
