ahh, ok. The only reason I ask is because I've heard of TH200's in turbo trans am's.

Also, I have a dumb question... what is BOP?

ahh, that is what i was speculating...

The one I found supposedly fits on all 81-89 Buick and Pontiac V8's... but did pontiac continue making their own engines? I have an 88 GTA and it came with a Chevy motor.

I dont think either one built their own v8's between 81-89...Olds was still producing the 307 until 85 or 86 Im pretty sure.

Oldsmobile actually built the 307 V-8 all the way to 1990 for the full size station wagons.

Anything from 82- on is mostly corporate.. 301 is the last pontiac motor in 81, 307 till 90 in wagons, Cadillac will always tinker, and then theres the 3.8 Buick V6 which told the V8 to bite it in 79 or 80.... I think my girlfriend runs a Buick in the bedroom for christ sakes. (Hey, I work alot)

Cadillac bolt pattern is the same as BOP - bolted a 472 in my 81 Regal with stock TH350 (previous motor was 3.8 Buick)
