My 1982 Buick Grand National Project basket case

Good candidate for an LS swap

I don’t plan on doing one to this car, sure it’s easy but I want to be different and keep it buick powered

Buick did supercharge a few things...

I’m on board with this

I don’t want to put a v8 in it. I think a v8 in a Grand National just takes away from what it is. I’d rather find a 4.1 and put that back in instead of doing a v8 just because the v8 swap to me is just beating the horse over and over it’s been done so many times

then maybe an ecoboost?



I love your plans. Stick to them and let's see this thing come together. I'm loving the progress so far

It's sad that they got all the bugs out in the 3.8 SC Stage 3 and then stopped making it.

Too ma

Making progress, this evening I got the donor firewall separated from its original door posts. It is now ready for cleaning and repair so it can be ready for the GN when I marry these two together hopefully this winter. I would love to have most of the metal work done this winter but we shall see
