SO.....I just dropped a 250 Inline 6 into my 1978 Buick Skylark! DYING to drive her test it out! I know they don't have a whole lot of HP but Torque is what I'm looking for right now at the moment as well as dependability and durability! It's not going to be a daily driver like I was using it...
I've got an '86 Cutlass Supreme with a junkyard 1987 307 (because I threw a rod in the og 307) and this engine isn't far from death. I'm thinking of doing a junkyard Vortec swap to it and I am not very knowledgeable with engine swaps this big. Anybody got any tips? Also, what kind of Vortec...
I posted here last year and got a great response so here is an update on the cutlass:
Last summer I pulled the old 3.8L v6 from my 1983 cutlass supreme brougham edition. After I pulled the engine I realized it had a hole blown in the engine block so I took off all the parts that I could reuse...
Hi, so I recently purchased an 86 Buick regal with a 307 olds v8 engine in it with custom side exhaust pipes. I'm definitely gonna stick with it as long as I can until I accumulate enough money to do an engine swap but I cant figure out what engine and trans to go with that'll be good with a...

Just curious to know what the most unusual G-Body engine swaps you’ve ever seen/done were?
I’m not talking SBC, BBC, Caddy 500. I’m talking like Mercedes diesel, Rotary, Cummins, any kind of I-4, non-GM swaps, even electric! Curious to hear...
Hi All! I'm about to inherit an '83 Regal wagon that's been in the family since new. Right now it's in Tennessee, but will soon make its way back out to the Left Coast. It's pretty clean and relatively low-miles (I think about 63k right now). It's that ubiquitous baby blue metallic with...
Hey guys I know I haven't posted at all since I joined but I can't work on my car when I'm at school. Either way, I've been trying to solve a no-shift problem with my LT1 swapped Cutlass, not your typical G-Body issue but here goes.
Background on car: 1986 Olds Cutlass Supreme w/ 1996 Caprice...
Hi i have a 1986 monte carlo ls with a stock v6 and i had wanted to put either a 5.3 or 6.0 vortec off a chevy truck or a escalade and was wondering if the vortec's intake manifold clear the luxury sport stock hood
What's going on guys, I'm starting my winter build. I've got a 350 I'm building to a 383 to put in my 82 Monte. With the 350 I ran 2.5 inch single exhaust. With the 383 I want to run 2.5 dual exhaust with Pypes x Pipe. Can I do this without getting the double humb crossmember. I'm on a tight...
Hey Everybody,
So I've run into a bit of a problem and I have a little bit of a story to tell, if you wouldn't mind hearing.
I own an '84 Cutlass Supreme. It's got a V6 and 3 speed automatic. It was the first car I ever got (had a few in between but this one's always been by my side). The...
