Yes, a 1969 455 Buick engine can fit into a 1985 Buick Regal, as both vehicles share a similar body platform. However, some modifications may be necessary, including adjustments to the engine mounts, transmission compatibility, and possibly the exhaust system. Additionally, the 455 engine is larger and heavier, so it's important to ensure that the suspension and brakes can handle the increased power and weight.
#1 cylinder is on the front right side of the engine.
Pontiac 455 headers generally do not fit a Buick 455 due to differences in the engine's exhaust port locations and bolt patterns. While both engines are part of the General Motors family and share some similarities, the specific design and dimensions of the exhaust manifolds and headers vary. If you're looking to upgrade to headers for a Buick 455, it's best to choose headers specifically designed for that engine to ensure proper fit and performance.
The Pontiac 455 came in 3 versions. Base, High Output, and Super Duty. The base 1970-71 engine produced 200 hp and 455 lb/ft torque. The Super Duty 1970-71 engine had 335 hp and 480 lb/ft torque. Power was reduced after 1971. The Buick 455 came in 2 versions. The 1970 Base engine had 350 hp and 510 lb/ft torque. The Stage 1 engine had 360 hp and 510 lb/ft torque. So as you can see the Buick was the more powerful engine by far.
1970=360 bhp (factory rating, realistically more like 420hp for the Stage 1) 1976=205 bhp :(
My 1976 Olds Delta 88 4 door with a 455 weighs 4400lb. A 2 door with a 455 should be around 4100lb.
A 455 Buick engine typically requires around 5 to 6 quarts of oil, depending on the specific model and whether you are using an oil filter. It's important to check the owner's manual for the precise capacity and recommended oil type for your particular model. Always ensure the oil level is checked after filling to maintain proper lubrication and engine health.
Yes, a Buick 455 engine will bolt up to a Buick 350 transmission. Both engines share the same bellhousing pattern, which allows for compatibility between them. However, it's important to ensure that other components, such as the torque converter and driveshaft, are also compatible for optimal performance.
