    2019 Silverado 1500 Gets I-4 Turbo

    Don’t know how many of you saw this yet, but the 2019 Silverado 1500 is getting a four-cylinder engine option. Sounds crazy, but makes a respectable 310 hp and 348 lb-ft. https://www.freep.com/story/money/cars/mark-phelan/2018/05/18/2019-chevy-silverado-four-cylinder-engine/621465002/

    Cost difference: SBC vs. 3.8 turbo?

    Hi all. Just doing some initial exploration and research on powertrain options for my ‘83 Regal wagon. If possible and reasonably within budget, I’d like to keep it a V-6, since that was kind of Buick’s trademark in the ‘80s. How expensive/difficult is it to still get parts or engines for Grand...

    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...

    700r4 or 350 turbo?

    I'm new here, but have a question about my monte carlo project. I'm buying a 1985 305 high output with a 700r4. I also already have a turbo 350 with a shift kit. The car has 3.73 gears. I plan to do 4 barrel intake, carb, cam, headers, double roller timing chain or noisy timing gears, and maybe...
