DALE! I emailed about a few things, I wanted to know how many good virgos
you have. I need either 2 or 4 (winters), plus I wanted to see that
intercooler pipe the 3" stuff, do you have a picture of it? Im trying to
figure out some piping stuff for an intake for my 142. Also Im wondering
what kinda money you'd like for it and if its around what you'd pay for
those 2 sets of springs then i say we just trade.
Speaking of the springs what rates did you need? I'm going to order them
this week.

Bob,
I'm assuming you want the stainless steel header? The brown top injectors are from a Ford T-Bird Turbo Coupe. They flow more than the green tops that come from Volvo 740 torbo cars... Unless you plan to make over 250 hp, the green tops are probably sufficient for you...

hay dale I was woundering if I could pick up the exause manifold and the injectors this sat, I won't be able to make the BBQ this friday due to work. I don't know what the difference between the brown top injectors and the green top injectors are.

After a week and a half of what?? Shaw employees...right... and it's been more than a week and a half of it buddy...
Enough small talk...
I need to sell this stuff pronto guys. If you've expressed interest in any of it, give me a call and set up a time you can come by and pick it up. If it's not gone in a few days, it'll go on TurboBricks and probably IPD's classifieds and then eBay...
I need the money to pay for the 122 I just bought... I got the 122 in Bonneyville. It's a '67 with a solid body and drivetrain but a thrashed interior. I can deal with the interior. It was the body on most that scared me. I've spent enough of Matt's time welding and painting to start all over again with another car. This one will be a good base. A set of lowering springs and IPD swaybars will make it handle like my 245. A set of Bilsteins will only improve it.
So... who wants what?
I've also got a set of GT diagonal strut tower braces with the reinforcing plates.
I also found some more titanium valves. Guess I bought more than I thought...

More stuff...
A 90+ turbo exhaust manifold...minor cracks but which one doesn't? Has the stepped type flange... $50
A later 164 or early 264 tail light. Plastic is nice but missing the chrome strip across the middle...
Some stock intercooler piping...
Saab intercooler...$25
A bunch of gauges...voltage gauges, clocks, 3-bar oil pressure gauges with senders, single bezels, triple bezels.
A set of front control arms. Been bead blasted. One has been POR 15'd. Waiting for poly bushings...
I'm sure I'll find more

Bob,I'm home this afternoon cleaning up the garage and finding more stuff to sell. I should be home tomorrow until later in the afternoon when I have to staff a bingo. 279-5299...give me a call...
I should've asked more for the springs...they're already spoken for... If Chris backs out, they're yours...
I've also got a substantially ported efi intake manifold. It was opened up at the throttle body opening to accept a monster BMW throttle body. I've got the BMW throttle body too but I had to rescind the adapter to the original owner. Shouldn't be terribly difficult to replicate if you know the right people...
I've got a stock efi intake manifold too, along with the fuel rail and green top injectors and stock throttle body.
I've got some custom 3" intake plumbing along with a K&N cone filter. It includes the section between the intercooler and t/b and the cold air intake...
At last count I think I had 12 or 16 loose green top injectors and 8 brown tops...
I've got two fuel rails...one with the fpr location right in the fuel rail and the other with the fpr hanging down low...
I've also got a few late 142/early 242 tail light lenses. They're pretty nice if I recall correctly. I think I tossed the crappy ones.
I have switches and relays up the ying yang...
Email me if you need something in particular...
More later...

hay Dale,
I was woundering if I could purchase the exaust manifold and the fuel injectors since you were cleaning out your garage just give me a date and I can come and pick it up. I'm interested in the Eure Sport 240 lowering springs I wouldn't mind coming to take a look at them. Are the some what the same ones as ipd has that loweres you around an inch or so if they are I want to buy them thanks.

More additions...
Eurosport 240 sedan lowering springs...$150
Big-ass Bosch driving lights with 100 watt bulbs. Bought a case of these on eBay a while back. They are the monster rectangle ones. They put out a ton of light. I had a set on my 142 and with 60 watt bulbs would light up the road for a long ways. $50 a set including bulbs. Some mounting hardware and wires are included.
Wheels... 2 GT 14" wheels. A bunch of Virgos. Some with tires. Some might even be straight. 4 of them will receive winter tires for the wagon but I have more. 4 funky red wheels. They're 15X5 with 140 series offset. I've seen them on 140's, 160's and 1800's. They'll need some tidying up but they're pretty rare... Make me an offer on any of the wheels. My 16" wheels and tires are not for sale at this point.

Well...Tyler seems to be somewhat preoccupied these days and I need to sell some stuff to get enough money together to buy a 122 so I guess this would fall under the "you snooze, you lose" category... Prices are in US$ as I'm going mostly on what these things cost me...
1. Eaton GM V6 supercharger M42? Crap...I forget the number...spins nicely. I have a new set of "rear" bearings for it. I also have a matchingAMM for it. $100
2. Centerforce Stage 1 clutch and p/p. Slightly used but loads of lifeleft in it. $100
3. Holset turbo. This is a non-wastegated turbo. It's not as large as the HX35 but is quite a bit bigger than our T3's and Mitsu's. 0 miles after a full rebuild. It's like new. I have an Audi external wastegate I'll throw in with it... $150
4. Front Bilstein HD's. Got them from Brad. He put one season on them so they're like new. The race car will likely get coil overs and my 245 has good front struts. $125
5. GT Door pockets. These are special door pockets designed for earlier cars that had just the fabric pockets. These are rigid plastic but not as brittle as the later ones. They are also shorter (length) but deeper. Black with an orange stripe to match a GT interior. I paid a bunch on eBay for these a couple of years back. $50
6. I've got a bunch of Saab CBV's and I think I have a couple extra Audi external wastegates...
7. R-Sport clusters. I've got 2 of these. One is on nice shape. The other has a crack across the speedo glass. I've got at least 1 10 bar sender for the oil pressure gauge. $125 for the nicer one. $100 for the other one.
8. Buick Grand National pistons. These are Diamond Racing forged aluminum. They are a bit funky and will need some machining to the deck but they're 96.65mm... I have 6. $125 for all 6. No rings or wrist pins.
9. Titanium valves. 7mm stem to match the 16V size. Way to big right now. Cut them down, cut the stems shorter and maching retainer profiles and you've got valves that weigh about 1/2 of the stock valve. $75 for 16 valves. Check Del West and see what these things cost new...
10. SBC wrist pins. Ex NASCAR pieces. Casidiam coated. Perfect condition. $75 for a set of 8.
11. BBC Wrist pins. Brand new. I bought them to work with the GN pistons but someone's measurements were off by about 1 thou... They're that much too big. $75 for a set of 8.
This is only a partial listing. I forgot my list at home and as I clean out the garage this weekend, I'll find more stuff, no doubt.
I've got pictures of all this stuff, just not on my computer at work. I can send them on request or...stop by and see them for yourself. Most of you know where I live...
While I'd like to sell this stuff locally, I'm not about to take lowball offers just to get rid of it. It'll go on eBay shortly and you can scrap it out with a hundred other people...
Thanks,
Dale
