  • Actually this is a stage 2 Buick 4.3 race engine. This was the first run with a new fuel injection system and it was tuned conservatively. Too conservative it turned out because then it began to foul the plugs and then went slower (slow?) every pass. This was the quickest pass. I know this because I was the cameraman. In exchange for the video the owner took me for a spin in the car. It was at his his house on city streets so it wasn't as wild as it could have been, but still a rush!

  • @PJMontoya Thank you for taking this video.

    Must have been quite the ride!

  • @swiftwood You bet! Got to feel some acceleration but not the top end because it was daytime in suburbs.

  • @PJMontoya If your ever in the Northeast let me know. I put a supercharged 383 in my Corvette and I take it to track days. NHMS, Loudon etc as well as the dragstrip

  • @swiftwood What year Vette you run? I prefer the feel of a supercharger to that of a turbo in most cases myself. I'm not that far from you so if I'm ever headed your way I'll bring my camera!

  • @PJMontoya It's a 1995, it's the Green one on my YouTube videos, and yes I'm be autocrossing with the supercharged engine in the SCCA Super Street Mod class

  • a V6 was never offered in a Corvette.

  • the grand national was the best thing to come from the 80s from the US.

    hopefully the donor car didnt suffer too much

  • Gotta love those Turbo v6 Buick engines =)

  • This is not even close to a stock 3.8 turbo btw. It's sick either way but there is alot of work in this car. More than just boost.

  • that vette is lighter thanks to the V6

  • Did they put the open corporate 10 bolt in it too?  That launch was scary to say the least! PS discard half of the comments below, while their points are valid, their #'s are off.
