  • Ringbrothers revealed custom Buick Grand National at 2024 SEMA show
  • Custom Grand National features powertrain by Duttweiler Performance
  • Ringbrothers also presented custom Plymouth ‘Cuda and Chevy Blazer

The annual SEMA show kicked off in Las Vegas on Tuesday, where the ever-popular Ringbrothers unveiled three builds, capped off by a 1987 Buick Grand National with a 1,246-hp V-6 under the hood.

Ringbrothers is the Wisconsin shop that is previously brought wild machines like a 1972 AMC Javelin AMX and 1969 Dodge Charger each packing greater than 1,000 hp, and the Grand National construct, dubbed Invadr, dials the insanity up a notch.

As an alternative of choosing certainly one of the big-power V-8s the corporate typically uses, Ringbrothers selected to persist with a 3.8-liter V-6, similar to in the unique Grand National. The stock engine within the 1987 Grand National used a turbocharger to deliver about 240 hp.

Nevertheless, Ringbrothers decided to go for a twin-turbo 3.8-liter V-6 built by California’s Duttweiler Performance for the construct. It delivers a hypercar-rivaling 1,246 hp, all to the rear wheels. Among the many modifications to the powertrain are a pair of Precision Gen2 turbochargers, hand-ported cylinder heads, a billet crankshaft, latest cooling systems, and a custom exhaust system built in-house.

The construct also contains a 6-speed manual transmission, a carbon-fiber driveshaft, and a Strange Engineering Ford 9-inch rear. To make sure the chassis can handle the facility, the suspension was overhauled. Recent features include a widened track, Penske three-way adjustable dampers, a 1.25-inch splined front sway bar, and HRE wheels measuring 19×10.5 inches up front and a chunky 20×13 inches on the rear. The wheels are wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires. Stopping power comes from brakes lifted off a C6 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1.

Every area was breathed upon in relation to the inside, too. Ringbrothers said it desired to make sure the cabin maintained a period design, while still incorporating modern elements. Key details include custom gauges from Dakota Digital, reconfigured floor pans to boost interior comfort, an integrated roll cage, and carbon-fiber trim, including for the steering wheel.

Ringbrothers said it took almost 5,000 hours to finish the construct. While such an in depth construct shall be out of reach for many Grand National fans, Ringbrothers offers many individual parts for the automobile and other G-body models.

Ringbrothers’ other builds on the SEMA show include a 1970 Plymouth ‘Cuda called Infected, and a 1972 Chevrolet Blazer called Tuka.

Within the case of Infected, Ringbrothers picked a vibrant pink paint finish that may likely prove polarizing. The automobile also contains a modern 807-hp supercharged 6.2-liter V-8 Hellcat Redeye engine, and custom body work wrapped around a chassis with an prolonged wheelbase.

For the Tuka, Ringbrothers customized virtually every panel of the donor Blazer with bespoke components meant to showcase the corporate’s attention to detail.
