Hello i have few questions of my combo.
These parts i have...

109 block
+30 Je Pistons
h-beam rods
steel crank
GN1 aluminium heads
70 tb
Kb-headers
alky
aeromotive a-1000 pump with 1/2 lines.
Comp Cams 212/212 flat tappet camshaft
pt-70
3" down pipe
Big front mount cooler
billet caps & girdle
New bearings & oil pump
roll master Timing set
Tial wastegate.

What size of injectors should i use with these?
What maf i should use or would maf translator pro be better?
How much hp i can get with these stuff/ how fast can i go 1/4?
What head gasged do you recomend?
Boost?
best converter stall speed?
Have i missed something?


Thanks!

Looks like ...

serious HP. Depending on the injector choice you may need to mod your ecm. Eric of TT, Mike at full throttle, or Bob Bailey would be good choices to ask about the proper combination as well as Rusty on the convertor choice.

Personally I would go w/a min of 60's and the pro. w/3200 stall. If you really want to push it. 84's, and 35/3600 stall and 28-30#. Tuning will play a big role and whether or not your trans will survive. Hope this helps.

Thanks!

It is frustrating to build Buick motor here in europe, bacause no one knows about these engines.

I have thinked to use 80 lbs injectors and ihave allready bought maf translator pro. I hope i find someone who can tune my car up.:biggrin:

What size of injectors should i use with these?

IMHO... the new high z 80's would be nice

What maf i should use or would maf translator pro be better?

IMHO.... get a TT SD chip

How much hp i can get with these stuff/ how fast can i go 1/4?

PT70's are good for probably high 9's at around 30 psi boost on good gas. I would say 10.20's are with pump gas and alky.... with 24-26 psi.

What head gasged do you recomend?

Cometics

Boost?

30-32 psi if C16 - if pump gas and alky is used..... 24-26 psi

best converter stall speed?

Better consult Dusty Bradford on here for a converter recommendation.

All of this would be on a good tune.... and good 60' times...

About the only thing in your combo that is "off" is the use of a flat tappet cam. You have alot of cash in your engine, so why use a flat tappet cam that WILL go flat in short order if you run enough valve spring to run it to 6500 rpm? Go with a 215/220 roller and it will live great. You will also need around 3400-3600 stall for your turbo to spool. I agree that Dusty is a great choice for converter specs/purchase. The above suggestions is also good advice.

Yes, youre right about cam.
I bought cam time ago, i also bought cnc ported 8445 heads.

Now i have decided to build my car well..
I also need to buy new transmission for this combo.

These cars are here so rare, i want to build fast and powerfull car so i can
show for the v8 guys how fast can you go with V6...:biggrin:

Roller cam setup

How much would good roller cam setup cost and what you recommend?

Fullthrottlespeed.com can set you up with an austemper hydraulic roller cam kit. Talk with Mike on which cam he would suggest. ( feel that a 215-218 on the intake and 218-220 on the exhaust would work well for your combination.) The kit comes with everything except a timing chain. With steel caps and girdle, you will probably need a -.005" set. After line honing the crank is closer to the cam centerline which is why you'll need the shorter chain.
Sorry I ddin't notice your location. (Finland) I'm sure you will be the only one around with a Turbo Buick. That will be ALOT of fun. Sure is fun to beat the heck outta guys that "think" their V8's are fast.

Not the "ONLY ONE"

Thanks for answers!

Thank god that I am not only one, my friend also builds Turbo buick too...
Both of us are seeking information and we share it..

I have now four of these cars now, and my friend has two..

You should buy my twin turbo car. Then you can have an "even" five of them. Glad to hear folks in Finland like these old rust buckets, too. What do the local guys think of the Turbo Buicks? I've never been to Finland. England and Holland is the closest I've been to you. (and that was for work, so I didn't have much personal time there.) I know there is drag racing in Sweden, is there Drag racing in Finland, too?

 

[calais1965]

Twin turbo would be nice...

Can you send pictures about your twin turbo setup, especially headers...

Drag racing is popular in finland..
