Think it is a typo, engine swap or a person who doesn't know?

It could be a swap. It could also be a 1998 and not an '89. $1300 would be expensive for an 89 under normal circumstances.

Already did. I'll post here when and if I hear. Might be worth a personal look-see if the answers come back from him right.

Is that actually an 89, and if it is, did you do the swap or someone else?

If it'* not an 89, what year is it? Supercharged engines were only available starting in 1992 for the Bonnevilles,
1991 for the Buicks.

What city are you in? I might be interested. Can you send me some pics? Particularly under the hood?

HEY THANKS FOR THE INTEREST ,IT IS INDEED AN '89 SSE OR SSC I DON'T REMEMBER , IT'* BONE STOCK NO SWAPS OR ANYTHING ,I HAVE PICS ON THE WAY BUT WON'T BE ABLE TO SEND THEM TILL MONDAY . OK?
If it'* an 89 with no swaps, it'* not supercharged. Does it actually have a belt-driven supercharger on top of the engine? With the throttle body attached to one end, and a pulley on the other?

He'* convinced it'* supercharged - I'm guessing he doesn't know what that means. "SSC"

Maybe he bought it from soneone who put badges on it and he just thinks it is stock.

Or maybe he'* just plain clueless.

I think it'* the latter.

And he probably thinks it'* fast compared to his four banger Toyota!
