Buick Regal GS
Well, Im about to install my cam, and after that there wont be much else I can do to improve the underdog L98 motor. With the exception of a blower, but I dont have $4000 layin around to play with at the moment. So I figure its a rebuilt engine with some mild work done to it, so I can easily handle a good 75-100 shot every now and then.

goin back to the original topic, it was said the buick probably let off at 105. they got a 105 SPEED limiter, so do i, because of the 2 piece drive shaft, get an aluminum ds and tires and we're capable of much higher speeds. the limiter on my bird comes in right after my shift to 4th right around 3grand. and are you sure he wasnt towin somthing? we should have taken you off the line and dissapeared into oblivian, unless his torque converter is takin a shit like mine
Man this thread never ends
. Yeah I'm sure I took him off the line, I take alot of cars off the line due to the torque/weight ratio. But after about 60mph I get owned

That shows that he couldn't drive, the 3.8 SC owns off the line, cutting 2.0 60 foot times on crappy Goodyears without a problem all stock. After 60 is where they suck. Clearly he didn't know how to drive. Care to try my 3.8 S/C?

.076 ft lbs of torque per lb for the buick
.067 ft lbs of torque per lb for my car
That's saying the Buick makes close to stock horsepower/torque, which it likely doesn't.

I think you'll find the buick makes more torque then what it's rated for. That motor is much stouter then yours. It also makes torque from idle to redline something I doubt yours does. It will own you moded or not....let it go man.....
