Buick Grand National
For those of you interested in different applications.
Take a look at the attached link, just a little project that I am working on in the six cylinder area. Not quite a straight, but you get the ghist.
Enjoy the first installment.

I saw a guy years ago at Carlsbad raceway in Ca. run 11.88 bone stock. Racing slicks and straight air intake, that's all.

Sweet! The styling, image and performance hold up as well today as it did 20 years ago. And it's a Buick!

That's going to be an insane buildup, the GNX package was an 11,000 dollar option for the Grand National that added things like independent rear suspension and ceramic coated turbos, every one of them was sold before being built, very few unmodified cars could run with it at the time.

Amazing, one of these GN just popped up in my town, awesome exhaust note, but I have to ask how did Buick/GM just fall off so hard
