    66lark,I find it intresting your doing this.I owne an 83 turbo motor also ,and lately I've been wanting to "have some fun" myself.I don't want to tell you if it will work if I have never done the job before, but I don't think you will have any major setbacks.May I ask how mutch you paid for the engine?I was thinking for tweaking mine is to put the two center billet main caps on,1" carb spacer,71 800cfm carb and possibly 100 shot of spray.What do you think? At any rate, good luck with the swap.Thank you.

    alec296 i need another buick

    turbo 225

    if you have a complete motor it should bolt in .if just setup should work to but you might need later heads due to intake port size.i think it would be more intersting than a caddy eng. :3gears:
