About this Current Vehicle:

Just like any other GN, its black. The motor has just been built and I have been working on getting it tuned. Its nice living so close to two drag strips so I have a legal way to test and tune the car. So far I have run a best of 11.53 @ 119 on 24 PSI of boost. Still running a little rich (actually a lot) but keep getting data logs and checking where I can pull fuel and where I should add it.

Factory Options:

Rear defog, delay wipers, tape deck, thats it. Factory stripper that still ran over $17,000 when bought new.

Exterior Modifications:

Stripped the lacquer and repainted it. New emblems that are actually put back in the correct areas.

Interior Modifications:

Bunch of gauges and thats about it.

Performance:

JE Pistons .020 over, Carillo rods, Buick Motorsports stage 2 forged stroker crank, Billet main caps, 210/212 Roller cam, T&D roller rockers, Champion Stage 2 aluminum heads fully ported, port matched by Champion stock intake, Stage 2 front cover with high volume oil pump, Custom 4” thick (3” pipes) front mount intercooler, F-body radiator (don’t knock it till you tried it), ported doghouse, Cottons Performance 4" MAFLESS intake, F.A.S.T. Classic speed density set up, wideband o2, Razors Alky Control methanol Injection, TA-51 turbo (.63 compressor), 3" Terry Houston downpipe with integral wastegate, adjustable high pressure wastegate, 72 lb/hr fuel injectors, Walboro 340 255 ltr/hr fuel pump, Caspers fuel pump hotwire kit, Kenne Bell Boost-A-Pump 40 amp box, Art Carr 3500 stall, custom built transmission by John at Master Transmission, test pipe with dump (catless), Hooker Super Comp "catback" exhaust, manual bleed boost controller, 48 row transmission cooler, PTE remote oiling system, 160* thermostat, Accufab adjustable fuel pressure regulator, RJC Racing plenum boost plate, Flex-A-Lite 12" pancake puller fans, probably some other stuff too.

Suspension/Chassis:

air bags, sway bar, end links, bushings. Why not try to see how fast I can go on a mostly stock suspension first.

Drivetrain:

Full built billet 200-r4 transmisson from Master Transmission. New Art Carr 16930 that I had re-done (which is why its new) to stall at 3500 and added an anti-balooning plate. I hope I put enough into these to support the power output of the motor.

Electronics:

F.A.S.T. B2B engine management system.

To-Do List:

Notch the frame so I can put bigger tires in the back and keep some traction.

Nice. It's a real shame they're shutting us down here at the end of August.

Guess it's just too old for the GM boys : /

Too bad the 3.6 gets worse gas mileage and doesn't have the reputation of the 3.8

Hello, I'm an engineer at GM Powertrain Flint North, the factory where your 3.8 was built. I'm glad to see you representing Buick City with a kick-ass three-eight!
