I am assuming this is a turbo, not supercharged motor? Good luck and if turbo charged get the best boost controller you can!

Mine's coming down this winter. I have an offer to trade my top end combo for SB2.2 set-up so looks like I'll be stepping up before I thought I would. After the trick to making these heads work with boost was found and the car went 153 in the 1/8 on radials I made my mind up Maybe 7's in BG if they let me come ![]()

Its sad that you cant race with the engine that came with your cars because the rules are made for V8's. It will be the death of stage engines.

V8 conversions
Anyone who puts a V8 in a Grand National no longer has a Grand National. It's now a regal with GN badges and a V8. If you are not running a Turbo 6 in your GN, then it's not a GN anymore. Just my 2 cents.
Turbo 6 Forever! Chris |

There are almost no classes where the V6 can compete.
If you are building a purpose built race car and you want to go 8s or faster, don't build the V6. You will spend more, wrench more and win less. If you want a nice 9 second or slower car keep the V6. BTW: I have owned 3 Turbo Regals including a back halved car and 3 stage two motors. If you want one of my stage two motors I will trade you for a turbo ready small block. PM me and send some cash.
