Those headers are NOT street legal. They do not have provisions for AIR. Besides, why waste money putting headers on a 2.8 motor that's putting out 105 horsepower? It's best use would be for a boat anchor.

Dude why are you even here. I did a search for your posts, and none of the post you originated have anything to do with third gen F-bodies, and your replies were nothing more than slams on the originator of the thread. If you want to learn about third gens in the hope of one day owning one, this is the place to find that information. These people will share every bit of knowledge they have with you, if you don't **** them off first.

If u want to "slam" ur friend for his car, dont do it on a board where tons of people read it. Thats what email was invented for. Better yet, telephone. Speaking to him in person.

Gee Mr. Mopar....my car does 0-60 in the 8 second range w/ tuneup and exhaust....am I a freak? BTW, I'm callin your 15.6 out. Post a timeslip. Unless you had a horse jockey in there w/ all the interior stripped out. My friend's Camaro 3.8 ran a 15.2 so I believe that it's possible, but a Buick LeSabre? Quit driving your Mom's car and get a Guy car.

-Exactly-, Steve. I'm not your friend, I'm not your buddy, and I'm not your pal, so don't expect me to "interpret" your messages as jokes. Go find another message board to troll on.

Ever driven a Buick Le Sabre? Although I would take an F-body over a buick any day, they are definitely strong if they have the 3.8. Not sayin that this one did the 15.6, but by your suggestion that it isnt possible for a Buick is dead wrong.

LOL... hermmmm funny my 3.1L made 235hp and ran 13.98 on nos - that was in a 1991 firebird. Was it the fastest out there? no, would it get beaten? yep sure did, but i also handed quite afew mustangs and camaros a good look at the taillights. Sure i invested alot of money and time. The guy that has it now has made it faster - he's running solid 13.4#'s now with it. I will agree the 3.8L is a great block, they can be real fast. I also will agree that to have a choice to build a V6 as compared to a V8 i would pick the V8 next time. HOWEVER what i don't agree with is how ya came over here and blasted a board full of 2.8's to 3.4's the way ya did and expect to not get called a troll. If ya kept to the facts without the flames - ok fine, fact is fact but do not under estimate what a engine can do or ya just might have a lil 3.1L show ya the tail lights

Okay, I deleted my inappropriate posts and won't bother anybody anymore. For those of you that don't believe that a LeSabre with a 3800 series two runs a 7.4 0-60 and 15.6 1/4 mile, go check out 1998 or 1999 back issues of Road and Track. That's the time they posted a year or two ago. My car only has 37,000 miles, so it's still as fresh as new.

Is there any way for me to unsubscribe from the board?

Thanks
