    V-6 Aluminum block and heads.

    I just read an article from TA Performance that they are manufacturing aluminum v-6 blocks and heads.

    It reads as if this is for the buicks? But could this block and heads be used on our cars?

    Your 3.8 block is a Buick design...

    I think there is a similar article in GM High Tech Performance mag...Oct. 2003

    And I think you are right. It looks like the engine is built more for racing and the GN's.

      hmmmm would be nice to use that block and head combo though. The article says the block shaves off a good 100 lbs. That is always a nice bonus!

      :D
