Anybody have a set of V6 225 mounts laying around that could snap a couple pics for reference?
I'm having clearance issues with my transplant and think they may be an option.
Thanks,

Unless you opt for cutting in the hood scoops and fender gills, the GS badges may not look right.
Have you given any thought to stripping the badging and trim altogether and welding the holes up?...
Take a peek at this article on Turbobuicks.com and see if your block qualifies for the conversion:

Some additional updated pics:
A little over a year and the car has been completely stripped, front and rear windshield channels replaced, all trim removed and holes welded shut, and, have all of the exterior surfaces primed....
I went with the 7 piece kit from Tamraz's auto on ebay for my 64.
I have everything cleared out and I'm getting ready to beat it into submission around the wheel wells.
I'm convinced that ALL...
Do we have an annual report? :bgrin:
Haven't been able to make it up that way in a while.
Sorry to hear about the accident....:(
Wishing you a speedy, full recovery.

Also, check out the Hybrids section on turbobuicks.com and turbobuick.com.
A ton of good info on swaps from Celicas to VW's.
Go with the 3.8.....:thumbsup:
The aftermarket speed parts are plentiful and you will have the mileage AND the power.
Be sure to grab a BRF 200R4 to go with it. :shifter:
As soon as I get...
Your welcome.
I've been there myself and it sucks.
Hope the water pump removal goes well.
Take care,

A Turbo-Six and 200R4 will drop right in! :thumbsup:
I'm in San Diego and I have a set of aluminum heads and a 2bbl intake from a 64' 300 that had about ~60K miles on them.
If you still need it, Email me your address and I can send you a couple.

Assuming the original 300 2bbl and ST-300 were the equipment.
I've looked all over this site and others and cant seem to find even a range to work with.
Any help would be appreciated.

I wanted to use the V6 Turbo setup so I have a lab to test out modifications before molesting my stock 87 GN. Also, the engine, trans, and rear were free...:bana:
The goal is to also "sneak" up...
BTW - I'm planning to incorporate the windshield washer bottle into my Alky Injection system. :bgrin:
BTW -Once removed, the motor, trans, gas tank, and rear will be up for grabs..anyone interested?
Not sure of the value, but I'm open to "reasonable" offers. :thumbsup:
What about TA?

I was hoping to find a decent used 64 Skylark service manual.
I have a copy of the 66 manual, not sure how much of it crosses over...:confused:
There is a complete 63 Skylark in East County that would be a great project. The car was being prep'd for paint and all of the trim/mouldings were removed. I looked at the car two separate times and...
I'll be pulling it out within the next week or so. Once it's pulled, I'll clean it up a bit and assess the damage.
The plan is to replace it with an 87 Turbo intercooled six I have laying...
Cool! :thumbsup:
I'm out here in El Cajon....where does everyone else live?
I have a 64' Lark that I'm wrenchin' on these days.
Come to find out, the passenger side tumbler has the key code stamped on the side. The locksmith cross ref'd the number and had a key for me in less than 45 seconds...:thumbsup:
With two...
