    I have a 1983 Regal drag car my son drives. It has a 383 stroker in it and runs 12.05 in the quarter.
    Before I dump more money into it, does anyone know if I can fit a nice 455 under the hood. Its narrow beside the steering colume, so I my need to lift the engine a little, I don't know.
    I'd like to hear from some that has already done it or from someone that tried and failed.
    I'm tired of explaining why there's a chevy in my Buick. I need to go back to Buick power.
    Thanks,
    Mel.

    It's done all the time. I'm doing it to an 83 right now. See the forum called, "V-8 Buick Powered Regals" for lots of info.
