I am looking for a good rebuild kit (pistons, rings, bearings, timing chain, lifters, cam, gaskets, etc.) for my '87 Grand National. Any advice would be greatly appreciated--thanks

Don't know about a kit, but if you work with Mike Licht at Full Throttle, he has it all. http://www.fullthrottlespeed.com/
Call him and tell him what you need.

I was looking at kits from Northern Auto Parts, but the site you posted looks like it has some better options--thanks

Some of the parts on the list at Northern look to be good. However, I truly wonder if everything is 'right' for these cars. Some items in their 'list' should be fine for a NA (normally aspirated) V6 or a turbo one. Some need to be for the right kind. (i.e. head gaskets, etc.) The fact that they show the 86/87 cars as "14 bolt oil pan" worries me. (they are 20...the earlier blocks are 14)

Parts from any TR source should avoid these sorts of issues.
