ok so i'm a buick V6 nut. for some reason i like the n/a buick V6 and i'm thinking of building one up in the future for a mild application about 250-300 HP with EFI (like TBI) and i'm wondering what i have to do to achieve that with a n/a engine.
if i want 9:1 compression do i have to get custom pistons? i cant find any that are above 8:1.
what kind of cam specs should i look for and what would be the most important aspects? i dont know much about selecting a cam for a buick V6 so any help would be appreciated. what about lifters, springs, push rods, rocker assemblies? can i use the stock stuff?
do they make a blower for the buick V6? all i see is turbo stuff, no supercharger, no blower stuff. dont get me wrong i like turbos but i wanna try a blower, that would just blow everyones mind to see a blower on something other than a V8. of course if i go boosted the compression will be down to 8:1 and IF i can get a blower i'll use a carb, otherwise i might go SFI turbo or twin turbo and go for 500 HP.
am i nuts for liking the n/a buick v6???? all i hear is "put a 350 in that car" or "put a GN motor in there" but what i really hate is people who with "you need...(insert engine of choice here)".
