What type of mods can I do to a 3.8L to gain performance? This is in my 81 monte Carlo, she is my daily driver
Well the 229 Chevy v6 will take the same stuff as the 265 4.3 v6. So dress up kits headers intakes cams and distrutors are all available.
But will be lucky to brake 150hp. But it will be fun to do. Check summit for what's there.
I traded my 229 v6 for a 267 v8.... 229 made a great boat anchor.....
If Chevy go with 4.3 heads, cam, intake 4bbl. Or find a 4.3... 350 v8- 2cyl....
3.8 buick... talk to the turbo guys.
I wasn't even thinking about the 229 Chevy V-6. Junkyards are full of 4,3's from wrecked blazers.

As a kid a knew guys who ran a Buick Busch Grand National North Series car.... so i saw V6s could run hard and put out some HP... but i havent paid attention to them in years....
