    didnt look very well did you, its a l67 using the m90. theres quite a few differences regarding bolt ons, etc. takes a bit of messing around to get it all hooked up in a commodore. not to mention the lack of an elbow on the charger, which requires a aussie charger to be bolted on, or the original one cut and welded

    i thought it was an m90 on a buick, there have also been crate motors on ebay for 4500, so i guess it is a bit expensive, wonder where this guy got it from, he must have paid a fortune for it coz it didnt come from here, might just buy his engine cover.

    he probably wouldnt sell the cover seperate. whats the point in buying an engine cover that probably wont fit your engine, and im guessing, isnt supercharged?

    its a rather valid question, if you were serious about buying the engine cover(its hard to tell what is and isnt a joke all the time on the internet). i cant see where hes being a smart ass.

    Well there you go i didnt even look at the link lol i assumed from the previous post it was the earlier s/c buick . It is as you say an l67 though from a FWD american car. Anyway i wouldnt buy it you could find a aussie l67 for that price
