not all... there were 1500 or some odd number V8's in 1987
that was the only year they offered the V8 ttype and is kinda rare... other than that... all other t-types are turbo V6 3.8 liter
my V8 is a 307 oldsmobile engine 5.0 liter
reply if interested :o

They made T-Types in 87, but im not aware of any V8 t-types. The T is supposed to mean "Turbo"
They made WE4`s, GNX`s, Grand Nationals, Regals, T-Types, etc. I cant tell you off the top of my head how many they made....but I think 3000-5000 t-types were made. 3804 maybe?

if thats the case then all t-types are non turbo cars. There were 0 turbo t-types in 87

there were 0 t-types built in 1987

---------------------------------------------------------
1987 Buick Regal Model Availability: MODEL
Regal Coupe J47
Regal Limited Coupe M47
Regal T-Type Coupe K47
No 350 option was available.
LD5 - 3.8 liter (231 cid) 2-bbl v-6 engine (Standard)
LC2 - 3.8L (231cid) sfi turbocharged v6 with intercooler (Option)
LV2 - 5.0L (307cid) 4bbl v8 (Option)
I still have found nothing about T-Type production numbers or a V8 t-type. Ill look later, but nowhere in the RPO codes listing does is show a v8 option for the 1987 model year.
You give me the VIN and the RPO codes and we can find out exactly what it is, not that it matters anyhow. Just curious now.
