This is a walkaround of my 1987 Buick T-Type Lesabre. Its a 245hp cammed and ported heads 3.8 buick with a Trans go built 440t4. Flowmaster super 40 delta flow muffler with stock cat, stock interior and it rides on 18x8 TSW Thruxtons.

  • What exactly was done to the transmission to be able to handle the HP and TQ, for what I understand our transmission are weak. Thanks! P.S. Love the way this car looks and how it purrs!

  • @BerndudesChannel ITs a trans go full rebuild. Koleen steels and Alto clutches. Shortened up the accumilators for a firmer shift and a GM 2800 stall converter. Yes, the 440 is weak and this one is shuddering a touch on heavy throttle in 3rd. No worries tho as a RWD conversion is being planned!

  • The biggest part is the cam and then ported heads and intake. Bumped up the compression a bit too. Thanks for the compliments.

  • Yes, theres a k&n and the doors open manually  with reworked key linkage.

  • DUUDE WHY no cone filter or intake on here it makes a huuge difference on these motors.. BADASS ride by the way those things are rare as hell

  • @Domman56 Thanks for the compliments. I have all the parts for a new intake design but after flow testing the stock assy, it actually flows enough for the engines needs.

see all

  • Damn man, that car is sexy looking. The paint looks perfect, love that black and the euro style forward opening hood is really cool. Excellent work, love seeing someone take one of these cars and doing it right and not just sticking some dubs on it with subs in the back and all that!

  • absolutely gorgeous, thumbup.

    would like to know how you beefed the engine up to 245bhp. not just a performance cam, i suspect

  • Wow beauty looks absolutely mint! And in ontario if you want to sell let me know haha

  • So pretty and clean...Nice ride.

  • How do you open the doors?
