Why do all of that work for just 200HP? That seems silly. I would say that if you are going to do a engine transplant, you would want more of a improvement. Especially if the 307 is a 8 cylinder (I assume it is). Heck, you could get one of those new 222 HP Nissan motors, and that is 6 cylinder! Better yet, the Buick 3.8 Grand National motor is over 300HP from 6 cylinders! You may want to consider some less expensive modifications to increase HP, like the "euro" setup that has been discussed here, and can be found on the DOC website.. Or, a turbo setup. raynet@xxxx wrote: > > Has anybody sucessfully put an Oldsmobile 307 engine into a D.
