Probably correct then. 80-84 from Buick
I was looking at the 82 GP like Ken Sharp had..(82 Only in Pontiacs)
The Cadillac also used that engine then.Probably would be a good V/SA car, but not in the books.
The 84 Regal is the one you want then. Bogus specs and defactored too.
The 84 full size, like Darwin Hardy had, is more hp than the Regal.
Better jump on this one ,if you're interested.

Take a look at the 1983 buick estate wagon ( Like a regal wagon 108 in. wb) Big cam and 163 hp. Breaks 20.53 T-U-V car. Sure looks good to me.Rick.

My uncle ran the 252. Of course it was in SS/AX in an Opel GT. lots Stage II stuff. First SS/AX in the 8's. Ran a best of 8.90 @ 152 back in '96. Not bad for a Buick.

I remember when all the v-6 cars in comp were Buick. I was at Commerce, GA looking at the cars in the pits and a six cylinder car always has caught my eye, I noticed a Chevy v-6. It was my understanding that Grumpy had done a lot of R+D on the Chevy six and had worked on this car. I remember it had a V-8 tunnel ram that had a Z shaped section removed and it had been heliarced back and made to fit the Chevy.
