Man, 88mph sure comes up faster in my Canadian spec. 83 Delorean
with the 84 Buick Grand National 3.8L Turbo engine in it.
After some break-in runs, fluid changes and the addition of a new
turbo boost gauge, Dave Swingle and I took this beast out for a
few test runs on the back roads near his place. Although we have
a few vaccuum gremlins to sort out, the beast ran out very well.
For all who are interested, I'm posting a short, 3MB Quick-Time
movie to the Files folder in the DML vault. Keep in mind this is
at low resolution using the movie feature on a digital camera with
a built in mic, but it does convey the speed and sound of the car.
Even though the test runs have been limited to a few miles at a
time over a small circuit, the car promises to be a blast to drive.
Look for a full, detailed updated soon at: www.DeloreanMotorCars.com
Later,
