Hi, I'm getting my Regal ready for racing. If you get a dual fan setup out of a 98-02 Dogde Intrepid, Chrysler LHS, etc., they are big cfm fans and fit perfectly. I found one in a local yard out of an '01 and got it for $30!. Also, an aluminum radiator out of a Camaro/Firebird. It's a 2-core, but is supposed to cool great. Got it at the same place for $25. Go over to the turbobuick.com and other boards and do a search under cooling, aluminum radiators, etc. and you'll find all the tricks to lighten up the front end and keep the engine cool. I also got a Moroso electric water pump drive unit off a board member here for a great price. Just post in the parts wanted section and I'm sure someone will have one sitting in a box on their garage shelf.
thanks, that helps , i like the prices, well what you paid, lol, ill have to call some junkyards now i have an idea what to look for, im sure the rest of the parts will be had as people clean out garages with nicer weather, take care, john.
1050 carb dont get just any 1050 . look for a 9375 dominator- least amount of work to get carb to work right on a buick- got mine on ebay i might have a vdo with recall/shiftlight 120 have large electric fan new 50
