Just thought that I'd post a picture of the Buick 4.1 (252) that is going in my 914. It has Aluminum Heads, Roller Rockers, Custom Pistons (9.8 to 1), Haltech Fuel Injection and a Healthy Cam. TA Performance is going to do a test run on the engine before they send it me .

Looks purdy... but that manifold seems high, is that going to be an issue or is the V6 not as tall as a V8?

TA Performance is great, I'm sure you'll be thrilled. Did they give you a HP/Torque estimate?
People really under estimate the buick 3.8L platform. I've got a 275hp 4.1L ready to go in one of my cars. Not as nice as yours, but pretty stout none the less. It's a really nice fit in a 914. |

Amazingly cool. It would look super hot with a set of ITB's on it, but $$$ for that....
Show us more once its in its new home, and you have some HP/TQ #'s. |

Phillip, looks real nice, my V6 is coming together as well this winter too. If you need more clearance for the air cleaner check this out:
