Bolt_Crank Posted August 22, 2003 Report Share Posted August 22, 2003 I have never seen one like that, do you think someone made that? Heres the exact info from Beretta.net #1 WAS THERE EVER AN INDY CONVERTIBLE OFFERED FOR SALE TO THE PUBLIC? -No, in fact the idea was scraped but a few models are still remaining.Three were made for pacing the race at Indy, and GM still has two locked away in a warehouse somewhere, while the third is owned by the Indy museum, home on the Indy 500. Maybe that owner works for GM and he got lucky buying it. lol, there's like 4 of those in my city, and they look _damn_ good, as in, not a chop job, so if it ain't factory, 'tis damn good work, and also, like 6 or 7 2000-ish Convertible cavi's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PJB Posted August 22, 2003 Report Share Posted August 22, 2003 I wish my dad's '94 Ciera had a 5 speed. Its got the perfect floor setup for it too. Corsica hatchbacks arent that rare. I see a bunch of them around here. One was even in the demo derby a few weeks ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PJB Posted August 23, 2003 Report Share Posted August 23, 2003 Actually the right spelling is Cyclone, but since Ford owned the licensing for the name GM had to misspell it on purpose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike J. Posted August 27, 2003 Report Share Posted August 27, 2003 This isn't a great engine, but someone asked in a post somewhere if Chevy made a turbo engine. I had forgot about the 1980 Turbo Monte Carlo. Here's a link to a hood bulge/scoop for one. I actually have one of these scoops already that I got free at a auto swap meet but I thought it was for a Dodge because it didn't have the emlems. P.S. Chevy also made the turbo Corvairs. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2429676783&category=33646 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest TurboSedan Posted August 27, 2003 Report Share Posted August 27, 2003 are you sure about that? cause there was a Chevy 3.8L in the late 70s-early '80s Yes. there were two different 3.8's offered around that time in the G-body. my '81 Malibu actually had the 229ci 3.8 Chevrolet V6 (a 'cut-off' SBC 305 basically). Buick started turbocharging their own 3.8 231ci V6 around '78 or '79 and it was known as the Regal Sport coupe; before the 'T-Type' name was introduced a couple years later. the Turbo Monte was rare, and it did have a hood buldge, but it was definately a Buick 231ci 3.8 motor. and a crappy turbo motor at that (carbed yuk). the only turbo Chevrolet motors i can think of off the top of my head is the TGP 3.1, the 4.3 Sy/Ty, and that Corvair thing. production engines anyway. were there any more Chevrolet Turbo production motors? joshua Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
