Always like the Turbo cars.

I have a 86 GN, so I know what turbos can do.

But I've always like cars that are different, thats why I built a 82 Buick Regal with a Buick 455 in it.

It has a 200R4 trans, 8.5 GN rearend with posi 3.42, headers duals with 44 Flowmasters
Eldelbrock dual plane intake, and a 860 cfm Q-jet.

Anyhow as a member of v8buick.com web board, I ran accross this thread and I went hmmmmmmm, a twin turbo set up for a Buick 455!!!!:woot:

Cam recomendations...a couple have ran a 212 Buick cam, kinda entry level.
