Delco, in the latest issue of NZV8 magazine, there is a Commodore with Buick V6 engine listed in the top 20 fastest cars section. That wouldn't be you boys would it?

Comes with 4l60e going to try run it on a vr auto ecu I think .
The ecu failed so he pulled the engine and box for ls swap .400 for motor and box and full engine loom I could probably go with a stock ecu if I can find one cheap and there's no throttlebody or pedal assembly so would be expensive to go that way

Not sure on the cam actuators but it might me possible to fix the cams in place at a desired "spec" and run a delco on it and forget VVT.
I'm the director of VSH (Vlad's Spec Holden), because HSV were doing it ass about.

You might as well, with work done I have heard these engines get up into the 500hp NA range, certainly mid 400s for sure.
