Yes it has. Are you sure they are not doing a Buick to Chevy crate 350 swap?

Some people are like Slinkies... not really good for anything, but they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down a flight of stairs.

It was a budget build and they were able to get same year 455 power out of it. Lots of plugs for TA Performance happened.

That 455 thing kinda tweaks me fortunately mine not stock. I can understand the TA thing too, not many to choose from for Buick stuff.

You Buick guys get no love. I don't know a whole bunch about them but I do like a clean GS or a 65 or 66 Rivy.
