My reference material indicates there were 5,401 T-types made in 1984....200 hp, 300 # torque.

I pulled those numbers of the Riviera club web site. If you can please post where you got you info. It would be good to know.

I suspect just checked one of my sources and the number you have is for 1984 Riviera T- type Buick offered several series with the T-type option A good source is "Standard catalog of Buick" I have the 3rd edition which covers 1903- 2004 there is probably newer versions that cover the later Buicks. I also discovered that Buick dropped the V8 option in the Regal after 1982. The gas V8 as the small 265 ci engine and the last year for the 350ci v8 Diesel. That from the same book.
