Hi Dan. Can you email me at 1turbobrick@gmail.com? Thanks!

Good day all. My wife's 740 has been suffering from this strange issue and the parts cannon hasn't managed to fix it. She came home one day saying the car was shutting off randomly, then would catch and run for a few seconds, then shut off and catch. This was random though. It would run fine for...

Hi all. My wife drives a '90 740 16V. A few days ago she called me from work and said her blower motor wasn't working. I'm relatively certain it's not the motor as they don't just die suddenly and it hasn't been making strange noises to this point. I've got a cupboard full of green books but do...

At least that's what I'm telling my wife. Got a call from a gent who desperately needed to move some cars out of his driveway so I obliged. I got this one and Matt got a completely rusted out but complete '69 122s. This is a '67 123GT. It will be my son's car. It's far from original which is ok...

Anyone done it? The Koni Yellow Sports I bought from a board member for the rear of my 740 are both blown. I figure it's probably cheaper to get them rebuilt than buy a new set. Anyone with actual experience?

This is a discussion I've got going on a local board. We can't seem to come up with anything. Hopefully someone here has had a similar experience and can shed some light on my problem... Sitting in the 740 yesterday typing an email on my BB and the car quit. No unusual noises or missing; just...

Just put a B23Frankenturbo (B23E block, 405 head, B23FT pistons) engine in my '90 740 turbo. The block did not have the CPS bracket holes so I drilled and tapped them as close to the correct position as possible (based on the B230 block that was removed from the car). Hindsight being 20/20, I...

I should probably know this but... I need an LH 2.4 block mount distributor. Did some years of the 240 come with 2.4? I was under the impression they may have jumped straight from 2.2 to 3.1.

I got a set of 16X8 TSW Blade wheels. 5X108 with RWD offset and new Hankook Icebear 225/50/16 tires. Paid $800. What do you think?

After some head scratching and butt kicking, Avalanche is happy to announce we have finally fitted a set of Wilwood brakes to a 240 series car. The Canuck and his winter beater were the willing guinea pigs and this weekend the "winter beater" was fitted with the hardware... What we started...

The owners club...:)

More to come...:)

So...I knew there was a 122 going out in the yard this past week because it was sitting in the holding yard when I was out there last Monday. What I didn't know, and few will be able to tell now, is that it's a '67 123GT! If it's not, someone went to great lengths to replicate one. It had the...

Well...it's been a long weekend...literally and figuratively. Craig (Canuck on this board) came up Thursday night and we spent the better part of Friday, Saturday and Sunday working on my 122, replacing rusty stuff... Here are a few "before" shots. The first step is to fit up the...

Here are some of mine... 8AM Friday morning...all shiny and ready to roll. 700 km to go... 200km later a few more were added to the ranks... Much driving ensued... Trying to show the altitude but got nothing but reflections...cool anyways. Altitude was 1870 meters or 6075 feet...

Megasquirt will control EDIS. You source an EDIS control module, coils, VR sensor and trigger wheel from a late 80's Escort. Then you wire it in, following some simple instructions here . As Matt said, the trigger wheel is adapted to the B20 front pulley by using our billet aluminum underdrive...

:) The Wilwood big brake kits have arrived...:nod: Rear hats... Rear caliper adapter brackets... Front rotor hats... Front caliper brackets... :oogle: Now...I need to find that list of people that paid a deposit...:-P

Yup...:nod: The left ones are the Forged Billet Superlites that we'll be making our kits for. The top right is a pair of IR-GT calipers we bought because they were cheap and thought they might work. Turns out Wilwood doesn't make everything equal and they won't work with our brackets. They'll...

Since I get any number of configurations of spacers and adapters done, my machinist decided to help me out... And these look pretty sweet too...:nod: That is all...:cool:

Ever wondered what $2500 worth of machined aluminum looks like? Anyone who ordered pulleys, EDIS adapters or spacers, they'll be on the way shortly. Of course, the pulleys and EDIS adapters will be anodized first...:cool:
