Lorenz Racing & Performance recently had an iconic car in for some updates!

Who remembers this car and company??

This car graced the cover of the Postons Enterprises Buick Parts catalog for many years dating clear back to the early '90s!

We built this program for former LDR radial racer Jarod Wenrick a few years ago. We just recently had the car back in the shop for a cam, valve train, fuel system and turbo upgrade.

This engine build is very similar to our "Old Yeller" THS build we ran for many years running a best of 9.30s@142 mph in THS legal trim.

This car has an LRP 109 stock block 235 ci standard stroke engine. Its prepped with 3 steel main caps with complete forged internals. A set of Champion aluminum ported heads & race intake, LRP custom cam with T&D rockers, Comp spring package, Smith Bros push rods and Johnson lifters. Its now topped off with a new Precision Turbo Next Gen 7270 3 bolt turbo, LRP custom built 3.5 downpipe run through 3 inch dual exhaust and a custom front mount intercooler.

This car has now made 808 horsepower and 996 torque at 34psi!

Everything is controlled and tuned with a FuelTech FT500 fuel management system, Aeromotive 3.5 gallon brushless pump, Bosch injectors and running E85 for fuel.

The car is fitted with an M&M T400 transmission with an MM shifter and a PTC 17 blade converter.

Lorenz Racing & Performance as always would like to thank Jarod and all our customers for making us your go to place for all your Turbo Buick needs! From bone stock original cars to 1000 horse power builds. We do them all!

Lorenz Racing & Performance recently completed another ultra low mile 1987 Buick Grand National! This particular car has 4600 original miles and was in from Wisconsin!!

After having the GN for many years the owner of the car now wants to start driving it alot more and enjoying it! He brought the car in for our total maintenance package and cosmetic make over.

The car received a complete new fuel system consisting of new injectors, chip, NOS GM filter and an XP performance fuel pump. The cooling system updates were next with a new high efficiency alum radiator that is powder coated low satin black with both engine and trans coolers to look and work just like the factory unit, 160 degree thermostat and new hoses with a total coolant system flush. We then updated and serviced the Powermaster brake system, added fresh intercooler hoses, ignition system was updated with Firecore wires and fresh AC Delco plugs. A new rear main seal, oil pan gasket, new breathers & valve cover gaskets were done along with many other items including all new fluids throughout!

A new Pypes stainless exhaust system was installed, it even recieved new authentic reproduction Goodyear Eagle GT raised white letter tires!! The car was then dyno tuned and tested on our DynoJet to finalize its portion of the mechanicals stage.

This car then was moved into the cosmetic stage where it received a full make over! A new set of Spoolfool bumper fillers that were color matched, sanded and buffed to a mirror shine were installed! The car the received bezel refreshing, 3 stages of paint correction and paintless dent & ding removal to make this a stunning show car thats laser straight!!

Lorenz Racing & Performance as always would like to thank all of our customers for making us your go to place for all your Turbo Buick needs! Enjoy those cars this season!!

Front end Friday at Lorenz Racing & Performance!! Lets see those Turbo Buicks!!

How many times can you say you've seen 5 1989 Turbo Trans Ams at one shop at the same time? Especially 37 years after they were built! Well, this week we have it!! 5 TTA's in for service and upgrades at the same time!! For those that dont know, these car were rare with only 1555 of these 3.8 Turbo Buick V6 powered Trans Am's ever produced by GM! These cars are in from Indiana, Kentucky and Ohio!

Several of these Turbo Trans Am's are very low original mile examples and a couple are seasoned drivers with many mods! These cars are in for fuel system, ignition and cooling system updates and upgrades. Dyno tuning, transmission rebuilds, new exhaust systems, new turbos, oil leak repairs, brake updates, hose replacements and complete over all maintenance!

Cosmetics are also on the list! These Trans Am's are getting 3 stage paint corrections to help remove years of yellowing and imperfections, paintless ding removal to make these cars laser straight and various paint coatings and sealants to protect and really make these cars shine and show ready again!!

As always Lorenz Racing would like to thank all its customers for bringing in all these rare cars!

MISSON COMPLETE!!

Day 5 of the Hot Rod Power Tour 2026 is officially completed and we have crossed the finish line! We traveled from Springfield Missouri and arrived in Tulsa Oklahoma at Tulsa Raceway Park and recorded the last punch on our cards at the final check point of the Tour! We then received our Long Hauler signs covering 5 cities in 5 days!! We traveled well over 2000+ miles in the Buick and are officially back home near Cincinnati where we started this journey 6 days ago!

The car performed flawlessly! The extreme midwest Oklahoma heat and storms didn't phase the LRP prepped Turbo Buick!! The almost 800 mile 12+ hour trip home was a breeze! We set the cruise control to 75 mph, put the A/C on high and hammered down! The car ran at 165/170 on temps and averaged just over 20 miles a gallon on fuel! It didnt even use one drop of oil on the entire trip! This car was just about as efficient as we could ever ask for! After an oil change, this car is ready for its next task!

We made a couple stops at some more cool locations while in Oklahoma including the The Blue Whale landmark in Catoosa, right on Route 66!

Lorenz Racing and Performance would like to thank all of our friends for asking us to join them for this experience! Cal and Jake Hartline of Hartline Performance, Dave Fiscus of Fiscus Motorsports, Tyler, Donny, Jay and all our friends we got to spend time with at all the stops on the tour!! We had a blast!!

Everyone have a safe and enjoyable summer with those Turbo Buicks!!

Stay tuned for more Turbo Regal builds!

Day 4 of the Hot Power Tour is in the books!!

The Buick is running great!! The car just turned over to 107k miles. We're at over a thousand miles traveled so far on this trip. The engine runs cool at 165-175 in these 90+ degree temps and the a/c is still working great! When on the interstate we set the cruise control at 75 mph and let it roll!! We couldn't be happier with how this car is performing on this journey!

Yesterday we traveled from Saint Louis to Springfield Missouri to our fourth check point at Missouri State University. We then worked our way towards our final destination in Tulsa Oklahoma on Route 66.

We traveled down through Spensor and moved through Carthage and made many stops along the way. Red Oak II which was an open air museum in Jasper County and was a really neat stop.

We then stopped in Joplin Missouri at the House of Speed to check out a really cool vintage motorcycle shop that was under construction.

Next we traveled through Galena Kansas and saw some really cool old Route 66 service stations and landmarks. We stopped at Gerheads Curios and grabbed some Route 66 root beers and some t shirts.

Next destination is at Tulsa Raceway to complete the Hot Rod Power Tour 2026!!

Stay tuned!
