Re: stock 2.9

are you asking if there was a rare 2.9L engine? no, no there was not. 3rd gen fbodys came with the following:
2.5L (Iron Duke 4cyl)
2.8L
3.1L
3.8L (TTAs only. Buick Block)
5.0L
5.7L


as for the auction, it could be a typo or the guy might not even know. i don't want to think about all the erroneous things i thought when i first got into cars :shudder:

Re: stock 2.9

Maybe it has a rebuilt 2.8 that was bored and now has oversized pistons. Unless I missed it he never says that it came that way from the factory.

i highly doubt that, and there is no way he is getting $5,000 for that.

Extremely rare engine, $5000.00 IS AN ABSOLUTE STEAL!!!! Titanium block, factory roller valvetrain. Heck, if I didn't have five cars literally surrounding my house, I'd buy it in a freaking heartbeat...!!!!















































..... and if you believe that, I've got some beach front property located in Kansas up for grabs lol! Just send me a cashier's check, and I'll send you a map. That guy is full of ***** lmao.
