You did not specify as to the year. If it does not have a distributor then the computer takes care of it.
Depending upon the year, it could say Regal, or Grand National. Most 1986s will say Grand National on the title. 1987 is particularly confusing, some have it, some do not. The best way to confirm that you have a grand national and not a Buick regal Turbo is to check the build sticker on the driver door or the trunk lid. if you see a code "WE2" in all the option codes you have a real Grand National.
1-6-5-4-3-2love turbo Regal's :D
The 1987 Buick Regal Grand National has a six cylinder turbo charged intercooled with 245 hp (183 kW) and 355 lb·ft (481 N·m) of torque.
Any engine can be turbo'd . If it is a 3.8 v6 you could find a grand national kit a modify( lower boost 7 max) to make it work. Would need to modify the ECM or use the grand national ecm.
Yes
The most popular were manufactured between 1985 to 1987 but there was a 1983 Grand National that was manufactured as well. Buick started this whole deal with the Turbo Buick back in 1976 with the 1976 Century Indy Pace Car which was a 231 V6 Indy Pace Car that out accelerated the Buick 455 from 90 to 110 mph! 8-) shortly thereafter the Turbo V6 ended up in Buick production as "Hotair" turbos (no intercooler) and culminated in 1986 and 1987 as the "BadBoy" intercooled Buick Grand Nationals with the 1987 being the fastest US production car for 1987. Then Pontiac used the Buick Turbo V6 in the 1989 Trans Am. And let's not forget the awesome 1987 GNX...LOL. See the following website for all the good information on this outstanding vehicle ;-) : http://home.flash.net/~rjgeorge To see a "Real" Grand National go to www.tufenuf.net and click on "Grocery Getter" That's not my Buick GN.........Mines faster 8-) TommyTrouble I would also like to add that the same turbo V6 was also offered in the 1981 Chevy Monte Carlo. Buick Regal Turbos before the famed GN were called T Types.
It is a very collectible car. What it is worth depends on some factors. Is is all original, does it have the original engine and transmission, and most of all is what condition is it in. It can be worth up to $22,000.
An 1984 Olds can either have a 350 turbo C or a 200 4R overdrive Automatic transmission the Same overdrive found in Some Buick Grand Nationals And Chevy Monte Carlo SS cars. The Buick gand National has the Strongest overdirve in the 200 4R series.
WHAT TIMING ARE WE TALKING ABOUT? STATIC SPILL TIMING ? CAM TIMING ? IS IT 407 TURBO OR NON TURBO ? JAY jbmdiesel@telkomsa.net 0837922103
To start timing on the 2C Turbo diesel engine, you will have to locate or distinguish camshaft timing marks.
no - timing chain instead
