[DML] Re: 350 in a D?



I am a GM fan. Yet I would have to say that even though all this might be
possible, you wouldn't go too far on a tank of gas. 
I am also the 2nd owner of a 1974 Stingray show-car (67,000+ miles) that
shares daily driver duty with my 81 D (5,011 miles). The Vette only gets
10.13 mpg with the L82 engine and Quad4, while the D is providing 19.37
during my 3 weeks of ownership.

(DRIVE EM !! that's what insurance is for).

Sincerely
Paul

With all the different versions of the Chevy 350, a person thinking
of
an engine swap, could be thinking of something as expensive, fast,
and
complex as a corvette LT1 motor. Or they could be thinking of
something
as cheep, simple and reliable as a 350 from a 1975 Caprice. 
The thought of a nice simple engine mounted fuel pump, rochester
quadrajet carb, and a simple ignition system sound like a real nice
idea. Just think, you would never have to worry about tank mounted
fuel
pumps, $800 fuel distributors and failing accumulators ever again.
Just an idea

PS: I remember reading one time that Don at Delorean Motor Center
had
an adapter kit to install a 3.8 V6, or a 350 V8 in a D. Does anyone
know if these are still available and at what cost
