KT Engine Development is building a turbocharged Buick V6 that is supposed to be a 21st century update to the turbo V6s that were in the Grand Nationals in the ''80s. I''m posting the entire buildup in a series of videos. The goal is 700-plus horsepower thanks to a 72 mm turbo, more cubic inches, ported aluminum heads and a modern engine management system. You can check it out at www.streetmuscleaction.com.

Hello there buddy...I have checked the site and it was really nice. Hope they can also build or enhance other buick parts so that buick cars can have better performance on the road.

I think you are on to something with the supercharger. There are several guys using SC kits to make 650 hp or so, with almost stock block 455s. The little V8 281 CI engine in my Cobra is now making about 650 hp at the flywheel.
