Are you only wondering of the block, not the complete engine?

Basically a Stage 2 Buick is a motor thats almost as strong as a small block Chevy motor.

Primarilly to withstand the rigors of the Busch series (in the 80's), and some Indy/Indy lights racing, and they adapt well to drag racing, being able to easilly withstand in excess of 1200HP
