Buick/Olds that is. My names Jacob, live in Breckenridge. Have a 81ish cutlass with a carb turbo 3.8 V6 buick out of a 80 Regal. Nothing too crazy. Just a daily driver.

No. Last year I was fighting the thing running like crap for the first few months of the year. Motor sat for since 93 blown up (1 completly melted piston, 2 detontated bad) and the turbo seal went out. Parts are a pain to get, finally got the turbo fixed. Had a lifter tick ever since I put it back together. Turned out being a bent push rod. Car got hit in April so that took a bit of time and $1000 to get that fixed. I wanted to bring it to Sabin last year and drove it to the street legals in September but it wasnt ready.

The other bad thing is the fastest Carb turbo car documented that runs is a 14.20. Its just has some guages so he doesnt detonate it, an alchohol kit, and an air filter. Stock block and everything. Ive got more work done then him so I can see a 13.50 without too much work once I get it running right and put a set of 3.08 gears in the back.

Overall Ive just been trying to fix all the stuff that the previous owner did wrong and get it running right.
