Fastest "fake" Buick and Pontiac???
With the recent talk of the "real" versions I'm curious about the fastest "fake" versions of these cars in stock and superstock.

First guess without research...John Clegg went 7.96 If I remember with his SSAM Pontiac.

Re: Fastest "fake" Buick and Pontiac???
I would imagine that Gallina is the fastest "fake" Buick also in the 7.9's.
I'm beginning to see a pattern here.

I guess I'm not following you, Carey. Wasn't Gallina's block a original Buick V-6? At least I thought it was. I didn't know there was an aftermarket block available,,, please educate me. Thanks for any info.

Yes Galina's Buick was real Buick motor but I believe insted of single it was twin turbo. TA now makes billet evrything for V6 just not back then.

Re: Fastest "fake" Buick and Pontiac???
Thats what I was thinking, Chuck. I was pretty sure the aftermarket hadn/t yet got in on the action in '02-'04 for Buick blocks, about the time John Gallina ran the 7.98, but I see what you mean about the turbos. Thanks.
