Newbie: Advice needed for carb'd turbo - seeking a buick part?

Hi guys.. I'm a bit of an outsider, not currently owning a turbo buick... I have owned a 400hp Pontiac before (LT-4) - so I'm not completely out of the family...

I'm needing a question answered - I'm seeking what I believe is the base of a a carb to a carb'd turbo buick V6. This has to be off one of the early Regals.

My understanding is that those car ran some type of quadajet draw through system? Any other cars with this system?

Anyone know the name of the part that I'm looking for? Anyone have one?

are you thinking of the carb mounting plenum? 78-83 sport coupe buicks, and , what, an 80 turbo monte carlo, and i also believe there was a older turbo trans am in that timespan also. i used to have a couple but have sold them over the years.

I see them on eBay from timie to time, usually at reasonable prices because no one really wants them. He is right on the Turbo Trans Am, it was 1980/81 with a 301 Pontiac engine

Are you taking about the untake or the plenum???
Here is the link to the intakes: http://home.flash.net/~rjgeorge/intakes.htm
There is a guy in the B4Black section that used parts to build a drawthru 400.
Here is a pic of the carb,plenum and turbo from my 83 .
