Cool! Were you at the NHRA Sports Nats in Columbus last year? It looks familiar. If not, I sure would have liked to see it run. I don't get that far north very often.

It's from an 87 Turbo T, Dark Red Metallic. I can dig out the color code if you want it.

How were these cars in 81-83? Were they beating the competition (mustang/camaro) back then, or were they complete dogs.

I think they were all dogs. Anyone know who was the fastest dog?
(turbo Regal=slug, Mustang=turtle, Camaro=snail).

Heres my 1980 Monte carlo (IN THE WORKS)... It has been sitting for about 9 years with a new rebuilt motor... Currently it needs a fuel pump and turbo gaskets....... Oh and a new paint job....

You have a good project my friend. Guys here are doin great times on the 1320' with that little engine here!

Plz change that ugly chevy orange Fram filter, its too much restrictive. Go with with AC-Delco, Wix or Purolator and change it for the bigger PF-52 style filter (ac-delco part nbr)...better brand, more filtering area, more PSI, more oil (in bigger filter), less things in your sump, happier motor.
:wink:

My Tac Special 83 T-type

my goal is to prove that you can get the same perfomance from a carbed buick as you can get from an SFI... lets see how it goes:smile:

Ive been offered cash deals at red lights and have always refused!
