I've got an '82 or '83 2bbl Buick Regal V6 and I'd like to know if an EFI intake from a later engine would bolt up to this one and work? I can use a spare MegaSquirt controller to run it if it will. Thanks, JB

The engine is an '82 Regal 3.8L V6 with the 2bbl carb and bone stock as far as I can tell. Does have the big HEI distributor. At idle it fires very erratically, misfiring in an irregular but steady pattern. No specific cylinder or cylinders can be identified as misfiring, and under throttle it...

So close. This photo is with the "Metric" filter mount. As you can see it's too close to the frame rail. Is there a filter mount that points more forwards or downwards? (remote is the very last resort) Thanks, JB

I need just the cover and used is fine. No gears necessary but I would like the cover to be complete with relief valve, spring, etc if possible. If not I can use parts from other style covers that I have probably. Minor wear is not a big deal as I'm using a booster plate (TA). The application...

How many different designs for this did the V6's use? I need something that points the filter down and forward more so than outward like the SBB (hits the frame rail) or straight down like the 215 (hits the steering rack). The one on the V6 in my wife's car looks like it might work, wasn't there...

What 4bbl intakes will work on about an '87 3.8? My wife's car has a 2bbl intake and the air cleaner interferes with the hood latch but I understand the 4bbl one will clear it so I'm looking to swap it out. I know, that sounds weird. But it's a Triumph TR7 with a John's Cars Buick 3.8...

On another (blower) forum we got to discussing boost pressure vs HP increase. Disregarding for a moment intercoolers and such, one fellow's theory was that to double flow volume pressure had to increase by a factor of four, and he based this on some flow bench work. I may not entirely agree with...

I'm trying to decide if an automatic transmission will work for my application, which is a blown Buick 340 in an MGB, weighing 2500lbs. The requirements are significantly different than for drag racing. First, I need positive control of gear changes. Automatic shifting is fine for cruising...
