Yup I think I tossed out 8 or 10 Buick 350 iron intakes when I moved lol!!! I sold 5 LS engines the other day and a few trans so it’s getting easier to move around in the garage. I’m trying to be less of a hoarder and just a collector lol! Got the Regal back on the road today as winter is almost over. It fired right up at -20! 120 mph is easy for this big beast. the 13:1 engine is ready to ship to the head porter/dyno guy. Trying out CLR for a rusty old block before I scrap it.
Here is a cool tip! Use 30% CLR and 70% water to clean and remove rust and grime from engines and parts! You can re use the solution for a bunch of uses! 48 hours of soaking in this bin and the rust is gone. Iron oxide is the black surface you see. 10 seconds with a scotch bright pad and you can see it’s like new metal!
Is the Buick Rainier same as the Chevy Trailblazer? Being that the Rainier is such a late model, and the Buick 350 is "old" its gonna raise a lot of eyebrows when yah open the hood, LOLOL Just say "Its a 5.3 LS, WTF are you BLIND!"
It would be very cool if he used the coil on plug setup off of the LS that is coming out of it, installed on the sbb 350! If not with the distributor sitting there up front will be a hard sell to convince most people its an LS! I guess you could try to say its an older LS engine that's why it has a distributor!
LMAO YESSSSSSS Most so called "gear heads" wouldn't know the difference anyway Tell 'em "go ahead crawl underneath, see, that's a deep skirt block asshole, its an LS" Then grab 'em by the hair and shove their head under the hood, "see yah little bitch, see how wide that engine is, see those cathedral port heads DICK, its and LS"

i love this ackward projects. with weird engines in cool cars, or cool engines in weird cars... i have great contacts to downUnder and wanted to import ford BARRA motors , however i heard horror stories of how they get stuck in customs since they have never been produces or used in the US so there is no emission paperwork.
