1980 Buick V6 in my 51 HenryJ

[V6 Buick HenryJ]

Hello all, I am in Carleton Place ON, Canada. Thank you for for this site.

I am in the process of putting a 3.8 in my HJ. It was a turbo but I have a 4BBL aluminum intake.

It has been quite an ordeal getting a timing cover and an oil pump cover but now that I have them I can continue. Getting the engine ready to break in on my engine run in stand.

Gotta love Henry J's.
They were popular race cars back in the '60's and you hardly ever see them at all. Perhaps at vintage drag meets.

Looks like a great project. The 3.8L Buicks are fine little engines, and have aftermarket support.
