Arrow 90 turbo Cadillac

I recently bought a 90 Cadillac Deville from a friend I want to make it into a drag car. Im thinking about putting a buick 3.8L turbo v6 in it. Thoughts and comments are much appreciated.

Re: 90 turbo Cadillac

The '90 Deville is a Front Wheel Drive car. You will not be able to make it a very effective drag racing car without completely gutting it and building a new tunnel under the floorboards to accomodate a RWD drivetrain. Then you will have to fabricate dozens of brackets and mounts to get this drivetrain to fit in that chassis. Considering you had to ask, I'm guessing that kind of work is above your skill level.
