My friend steve cagle hands down has the fastest buick "street car" in the country, he has been as fast as 9.42 @ 142 on a down hill track with a 40 mph tail wind weighing 3475 lbs. NOBODY makes a decent intake for a buick PERIOD. The blocks are weak and crack worse than a pontiac. They make a girdle for them and they weigh a ton. You cant get them to rpm. The crank (billet and lightened) weighs over 80 lbs. They tear up main bearings in race motors. I have raced with steve since '96 and have seen him put tens of thousands of dollars on those dam boat anchors. I always say that Pontiac people are stupid (I can say that because I am one) but buick people are stupid with mooney
