Important Safety Notice

This is a discussion on Important Safety Notice within the 3.8L V6 Supercharged (L67)(L32) forums, part of the W Body Tech category; L36 traditionally don't generate the heat that the L67 does. I'm guessing that this is why they are not included....

On my way to the first Branson meet, that happened to me! Like a dumba$$, I tried blowing the fire out. It just got bigger. It went out on its own.
Thanks for the info!!

Went to the junk yard to take some pictures of this 1998 Regal GS that only had 36,000 miles on it....

In all honesty, there is some slight oil build up on the front head, but I have seen much-much worse on a L76 that never has ever caught fire. I guess this was the "1 in 1000" that caught fire. But what gets me...is the hood damage...If the fire was up front...wouldn't more of the front of the car be damaged...rather than the back side of the engine area? Hummmmm.........
