This guy with a Buick 350 is talking about Olds having a lot of oil pressure but no horsepower and that Buick lacks oil pressure but has more horsepower.

I wouldn't get to hung up on it, thats just one Buick owners opinion. I liked the video..its running like its should.

As an olds owner, at least we don't have the oil issues the Buick does. Instead, we have our own. And I'll take that, I can deal with it.

I'm not aware of Buicks having high pressure oiling systems, though Pontiac did.

 

Dude doesn't know what he's talking about and thinks his engine build is the best in the world

 

High oil pressure can be from tight clearances as well. I wouldn't take too much stock in this.
Plus that motor should rev quickly, no exhaust and no 30-40# flyweel or torque converter on it either.

 

Huh. You expect noise like that out of the Chevy crowd, and the Buick guys usually save it for Mopars.

But, everyone to their own thoughts and ignorance. We Oldsmobile freaks KNOW who really started the horsepower wars and made airboddy else play catchup...

And as someone who was there in the late 60s-early 70s, ALL of them made horsepower.

It's like one of the local Mopar heads who insisted to me that Olds engines were slugs b/c the one he had in a 79 Cutlass couldn't get out of its own way. I finally said, "Marty, which engine did you have?" "A 260"

I hollered out laughing and he kept saying what, what?

I told him the best comparison I could give him was the 260 is to Olds as a 170 slant six is to Mopar.

 

Another cluless Buick Bioooooooooooooootch!
