Hi guys I'm new to this site but from the looks of it I've come to the right place. A few years back I came across a kid who had a 1984 Regal Ltd, His dad told him to get rid of it so I picked it up for the price of a few car speakers and a Amp I had lying around. I have to tell you this car needs alot of work, but I've grown fawned of " The Buck " as I like to call it so here we go! This car has a basic 3.8L V6 2bbl engine THIS WILL CHANGE! Oh, by the way I'm not trying to build a GN "clone" I think thats lame and a disservice to those who payed Good money for an original GN so I've set a few ground rules, 1 no GN badgeing of any kind. 2 no black GN paint. 3 no "Turbo" the third rule is a tough one because a nat asperated V6 won't cut it, so with this in mind I plan to run a Paxton Novi type Supercharger and I would like to marry it with a 1987 GN intake plenum and ignition system that I have already puchased, I also plan to buy a 1987 3.8L VIN7 longblock, this engine will be built outside the car then swapped in any tips or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
