  1. The two I posted for V6 cars are about the best out there. You can also try http://www.t6p.com and http://www.gnttype.org I'll tell you this much, if you're planning on building a motor or a transmission, make sure whoever does it knows what they're doing when it comes to Buick V6s, clearances are not the same as a SBC even though a lot of builders tend to think so. The 2004R is a rare breed too, there are two guys within 2hrs I trust with building them, that's it. You can get a hot air motor cheaper, and it's basically the same thing. Heads, cam, pistons, rods (assuming they're 2 dot, but as far as I know all turbo motors were 2 dot, though someone has said otherwise...) crank are all the same as the 86-87 motors. The difference is a hot air motor doesn't have an oil return drilled into it and they have 14 bolt oil pans instead of 20. The front cover is also a little different, but nothing major. Then you'll just need headers and intake manifold up from an intercooled car. You can make ~500whp on stock internals without having to worry about much. Depending on weight of car, if you go with a 2004R at that level you may or may not need a billet input shaft. I'll be shooting for around there and I'm running a stock shaft. I'm hoping the car is light enough to not twist it, but that's a risk I'm willing to take.
  2. You should be able to do it for well under $5k. I bought my hot air motor complete with ~400 miles on it for $500. Transmission I have about a grand in.
  3. Today, I heard a man pleasuring himself in the stall next to me during my post lunch deuce. I was washing my hands when my boss walked out of the stall. I can no longer look at him in the face. FML rofl
  4. How much does it weigh? If you have GN questions feel free to ask. Personally I'd go with a big block Buick. Though, I don't know how much you want to spend, and I don't know how fast you want to go. I think a big block with fuel injection and either a turbo or blower would be cool as hell, but that would require some pretty serious money. If you go this route Brian Earick is a good person to deal with, or some guys out of Chicago who's names I can't remember off hand - they race a dark blue Regal that is the most consistent car I've ever seen. 8.80s all day every day. Big block Buick on dope. If you go this route and want their contact info I will find it. http://www.v8buick.com should give you plenty of info on that. You'd be able to make pretty sold numbers with a GN motor pretty easily. I can't remember off hand if this exact swap has been done, but I know it's been done on other A-Bodies, check http://www.turbobuick.com http://www.turbobuicks.com hybrids sections.
  5. There was one that said Bavarian Motor Works unless I read it wrong... If I did read it wrong, I'm smarter than I thought for subconsciously not clicking the right thing.
  6. http://i42.tinypic.com/wh18k6.jpg lulz
  7. The only team from Ohio to go to the Superbowl, unless you count the real Browns - the Ravens.
  8. 19/20 Missed the most sold car, figured it would be the Mustang since it has been around longer. As a side note, I got the BMW one correct - but I meant to click Bavarian, Google says that's what it is, is that not correct? Edit: "Bayerische Motoren Werke AG in German, translated to English means Bavarian Motor Works" So both are correct...

    Car value

    Buicks haven't changed a bit. Now when Slow and Queerious comes out...
  10. I've seen a lot nicer K31s.
  11. That shit is baller. What transmission are you using? If an auto, converter a lock or non lock?
  12. I should mention that I'm gay for him.
  13. That guy looks like a total gay.
  14. Should have kept the Mustang and bought a beater. Your man card needs revoked for buying a Mini to replace it.

    Chernobyl Story

    If I remember right that was a hoax, but it was cool none the less. The events that led to the Chernobyl incident are so retarded it hurts my brain.
  16. No. If it was a turbo to start with and non ugly, probably.
  17. The other 14 turned right and died, Dale Earnhardt style.
  18. I've heard nothing but horror stories of the Chinese ones.
