82-87 Regals all have the same sheet metal. Header panels are different on the 82-83 cars. Cutlass' have the same doors. I am trying to locate good donors around here to cut quarters off of and keep fenders and doors for "just in case" the God-awful happens. Good luck.

Ok good luck but Mass is a state and no one knows what city and by your post I guess you need both doors and both quarters. Just saying that the more info that you provide the more helpful that the turbobuick community will be. I hope you find what you need.

The HA cars were generally 200 HP from the factory- so yes, that is a improvement, and you have alky!

If you use a calculator, you will note that 3600 lbs and 200 WHP equates to around 15.2 sec. (Close to stock times) :smile:
Alky for sure is worth 29 HP, which should equate to around 14.6 Sec (Closer to the stock 87 range)

Not going into the dyno number thing. Plenty of discussion everywhere on this.
