Well, I tried. And I failed. Nobody wanted my Grand Prix. Even for $2500 nobody wanted it. So, I'm resigned to the fact that I must keep it, but I don't want to be downhearted about it. After all, it's still the fastest DOHC W-Body on the planet. So I guess at this point I may as well try to get every last ounce of speed out of it.
I'm pretty much done autocrossing it, although I'm not getting rid of that suspension. It's just too much fun taking cloverleaf on-ramps at 70. But to get to the next plateau, the one that takes me to and past 14.0, I know I need headers. I also know that a lot of 91-95 DOHC owners like myself want headers. So rather than trying to get a set made and just for me, I am reaching out to all the DOHC owners out there who want headers to get a group of interested parties out there together to invest time, money, and resources into headers we all can use. I'm happy to lend my car as the guinea pig for any R&D and testing, it's already been the guinea pig for so many other DOHC mods. I am also prepared to finance a great deal of the project assuming it's going to guarantee progress towards getting a batch of headers done.
I tried to talk to Milzy about making a set since he'd already done 96-97 headers but he could care less, so screw him. And I know I could get a one off set done for myself at great expense but that only benefits me and not the community. So anyone interested can PM me or respond to this post. If you know a welder looking for work, or you work at a shop that can do it and you just need a car to make it happen, let me know.
