    It really is easy. You have ro be careful installing it as it is the ONLY GM hei that matters exactly how it is installed. Best single mod you can do to a Buick v6.

    I've converted quite a few over the years - make sure to cut the right lobe :susp: and things come out fine. Also find my post on the #1 Post for the HEI as it is critical to use the correct one.
