    Factory Prototype Indy Light Race Engine

    OK its not a Buick but a very neat 2.8 motor.

    Though the auction looks a tad fishy as he eludes to it may not have internals and wants $100 to check. When he could easily remove a spark plug and turn it over by hand to see.

    neat as heck though. The intake parts are worth the price though.

    They are worth it? I know you could make the intake for cheaper than that.

        You get a dozen people to send me $950 each and I will have the intakes ready by spring.

          It don't work like that. You make one first and if it doesn't look like a hobo job it will sell. You could sell 100 of em on Ebay easy. That Falcon intake is rare and valuable.

            Actually, it does work like that. If I don't want it to look like a hobo job, I need to know people are serious and I have the funds to put into R&D. I strongly think you are overestimating the 60* aftermarket. I would know. I have been modifying 60* for a long time and I have had to make a lot of my own parts since no companies make them for me.

              Well visit thirdgen.org

              The v6 section is full of eager buyers. You have been in this mostly 4th gen world to long.

              Pacesetter has just come out with new headders for us with a y pipe.

              Vortex is making a turbo kit for the 60*

              And a few guys are working on new intakes and larger Tbs.

              60* market is no where near dead.

              make it and they will come.

                That's kind of near-sighted of you to assume that I don't already visit the 3rd gen boards. I already own the pacesetter headers, I knew about the vortex turbo and I have already made my own larger intake using a dual 48mm TB. I already tried selling them and no one came.

                    You tried to sell them on the wrong board. I never seen any post about them at TGO. I been a member of the site for years. Post pics and details.
