-----Vern,,,Hardblocking a block half way up the cylinder walls does not compromise engine temp as much as you think it would. The heat is all at the top of the cylinders where the explosions are. Hard to believe but true.......Bill S

I have had zero heat issues with this car.As long as it is not raining this car is driven 21 miles too work and back each way every day in the summer. The hottest this car has ever been was in a local cruise night at Downers Grove where the temp gauge touched 173-175 deg in train stopping
traffic.As soon as your moving again it will recover to 165 quickly. By the way, I have had several emails regarding this engine. I will tell you that,if you go to Trishieldperf.com Go to the Stage 1 Level 2 engine package you will find this exact engine photographed and dynoed in his advertisement. That should ease some minds as to the level of quality Mr.Jim Weise provides his Buick customers.Hope this helps. ![]() |

How is it on gas? HAHA. Just kidding. Sweet Regal. Love the wheels. Have you posted your car on V8BUICK.COM? I agree that Ebay is probably the best way to get full exposure..
