We originally built this car with Frank Urbinati back in 1996.It debuted at the GS Nationals where it won the GS Pro Street class races. It was also the 1st GS Pro Street class car to break into the 9's at the time.Thanks to Frank this project came to life. Fast forward to 2010 and the car has been taken over by Bob Ortolani,the car still looks great and Bob decided to bring it up another level...

This was the car's 1st 9 sec. pass. Built around the GS Club Of America's GS Street Eliminator Class rules. A real street car naturally aspirated with a complete exhaust system,full interior etc. It is the first GS to run in the 9's using the original cast iron Stage1 heads, under the GSE rules! It is a stock stroke 455 with an .038 overbore to give it 464ci. It weighs 3500lbs and it idles smoo...

    I owned three skylark a 70, and 2 71s., I love these cars so much, and I got into alot of trouble street racing them. But, no matter, where I went, in any of my skylarks, a) I got respect. B) I won bar tabs and bets by racing. C) I put fear in any driver I raced against....ricer, euro, or domestic muscle. (Modern or classic). My 70 model with just a 268 grind cam and ported heads on 10.0 compression engine absolutely DESTROYED a 2014 nissan gtr nizmo black edition by a full second at thunder valley in noble California last year.....the entire crowd was jumping up and down as if I'd won the national championship or something.....that's called respect.....oooooyaaaa.

    that car is possesed!!!! Imagine if Buick could come out with a new version of the GSX, 6 cylinder and supercharged and its 440hp ! I do know the engineers at Buick really knew their stuff back then.

    I gotta say you definitely have big brass ones for staying in it during the wheelie , Thanks for sharing this torque monster with us.

    I bet a set of wheelie bars cost less than a new front end. Probably a good investment, you think?

  • @rickss69
    @rickss69 11 років тому

    I like it! How do you figure 60' on a car that carries the front past the lights? Does it have a cage? Past the point where it really needs it.

    I absolutely could not agree more. I had a 1970 stage 1 w/4 speed. Only thing I changed was the 10 bolt rear to a 12 bolt. I owned many muscle cars but this was my favorite and most powerful in stock trim. Had a 70 Torino cobra jet that I modified quite a bit that was fast but in stock trim the Stage one would take it

    Couple items of thought: Fine print of new engine garauntee- "Wheelie bars highly recommended, but not included". Note to self: Buy new packs of underwear when buying new engines (and wheelie bars). Dam nice looking car. Almost too mint looking to race, but you know you gotta!

  • @wizardofx
    @wizardofx 11 років тому

    Holy shit! I'm typically a FORD guy, but Buicks just command so much freak'n respect. I owned a stock '71 GS455 many years ago for about 2 months. It was hands-down, faster than any other muscle car I've ever owned. I really wish Buick would follow the lead of the new Camaro, Challenger and Mustang and produce a modern day retro body version of the 70-71 GS.

  • @GSX455Stage1

    Yes the control arms are lowered a bit, an anti roll bar has been added recently but hasn't been tested yet.

    The question is, what was the solution for #7 & 8 rod and the rear main bearings???Nothing like spinning bearings @ 5k on your one once matching numbered 1970 Stage 1

    What I love with Buicks is there's no 200 different combinations between respectable sleepers and top of the line launchers.You couldn't get a "somewhat" Stage 1 or 2. Its all the way or take your shopping somewhere else Mac !

  • @LTIHILLINGHOE
    @LTIHILLINGHOE 11 років тому

    That's a stout Buick, my friend. When I bracket race I always clinch my teeth so hard that my jaws and eye sockets hurt really bad when the day is over. Having to make up ground in a hurry is nerve racking. Keep up the good work.

    It has 4.350 bore, 3.90 stroke,13.2:1, 3800 stall, 1050 Dominator and 4.10 gear.

    Working on my 71 GS 455. What compression ratio, Bore, stroke, carb, stall converter and diff ratio. That car of yours hooks up nice, no doubt about non stock control arms there... I would be happy if mine gets into 10`s. We are 690' above sea level.
