![]() ![]() I'm upgrading to baer track 13" front and rear brakes. To handle the stopping I'm going to rip out the problematic powermaster and replace it with vacuum brakes. Spc uppers, lowers, veri-shocks, spc springs, lee 670 steering box, dse steering shaft, sphoon pro-touring rear swaybar, helwig front sway bar, fays watts link rear end, currie upper and lower rear control arms. I'm upgrading the suspension quite a bit. The plan is to strip the frame down, blast, brace, box and powder coat it. I figured the easiest way to change the head gasket was to do a frame off. I drove the car for a couple days, hot rodded the living hell out of it and blew a head gasket. So this is the car I bought, a 1987 Grand national with 60k original miles, no accident damage, 0 rust and basically stock. The engine is already a pro-touring worthy engine, a/c, power windows/locks, fuel injection etc. The car itself is almost a pro-touring car out of the box. Its a full frame so its easier to work on. I've always loved the car and it was a great platform. The car I decided on was a 1987 Grand National. Reliability, power, handling, braking, comfort in a classic platform. I wanted a car that I could drive on the power tour, take to the track (road and strip), drive to work or just swing by the grocery store. They turned out awesome but were not really what I wanted. I've kept this on for the most part but wanted to put the thread up here.īasically I've been down the pro-touring road with a couple cars, mainly a 72 and 69 camaro. ![]()
