There's tons of info here. If I just go off of what I 'think', I think they made them from 84-87, with the '87 being the most popular.

82 (no 83) then 84-86 = GN. 87 = GNX. Faster than a Corvette. Underrated at 276hp/360tq. 547 were built. Buick also made Regal T-Types.

Nope - they built both the GN and the GNX in '87.

And yes, the GNX smoked the '87 Vette - badly. The GNX engine is what's closest to the '89 TTA engine. The boost psi setting on an '89 TTA is set at 16.5 psi from the factory.

True. But I think you know what I meant

I wasn't sure - the way it was worded made me send the reply to be sure.

I did mis-word it. But it was accidental. Will you forgive me?

Yeah, I'm sure you care as much as I do.

I was just trying to give the best info as possible, just like you.

Totally off the subject, but I've been wanting to research this for a while....67 RSSS, according to Google Earth, you are here....

Question....why would you stand out in a parking lot all day?

I recognize the area you did a screen capture on. It's close to where I live. The major horizontal street above is Broadway Road. I forget the cross street you're at but I believe you're a few blocks away from my house. Maybe as far as a mile but you're close. I don't have Google Earth here at work but I do at home. I'll see what I can do then.

Those lil' bastards are quick too - but it is different - the typhoon/cyclone had a 4.3 liter engine
