  2. In and effort to reduce the spam on the site, several years ago I had went to a program where I manually approve each and every new registration. This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

    69GS400s ...my own amusement ride!

    This brings up a good point -

    Will the Bulldawg block meet the BPG/GSCA requirements of ...."Buick Powered" to race at their events ??

    Not that I would, but I posed two cases not too long ago and both were answered "No, Not allowed"

    1) 1969 factory equipment L6 powered Special/Skylark. Nope, not allowed=Chevy powered
    2) 1995 Buick RoadMaster Wagon, LT1 Factory Powere. Nope, not a Buick motor

    Perhaps with a few of you guys going to "other" power there could be a place made for you to run (each other) in the agenda ??

    ....Ohh, and I gotta say seeing two '69 Buick guys fight is disturbing

    you dont think that ebrock got ahold of some ta heads and disected them before the whole project got started, just something to think about. this whole bitchfest thing is entertaining but lets not make it an everyday thing. and yes this is a bbb powered board

    The Bulldog block has already been approved to run in the GSCA events, and I'm sure in BPG events. If not allowed, then you should not be able to run Ta heads either. If that's the case, why bother making anything aftermarket in the first place? Jim burek

    the Bulldog heads do not have a heat cross over. That is just a void in the casting, nothing there. Jim Burek

    Jim, did earlier versions have a true crossover? When the GSCA did a write-up on these heads in a GSxtra, they commented on there being a crossover. That is where I got my info (their pictures and their commentary).

    BTW, not to go from EB to BD, but are Bulldog heads available anymore?

    No, never had a heat crossover. The GSCA was mistaken. There are 25 sets of heads that have been cast recently. Jim Burek

    I'm from Belgium and I can tell that I'm very happy with TA service!!
    I always phone them and always get the information I need.

    As for Email, you can imagine how many of them they get, asking for information you can find on their website.

    Will buy TA head period!!
