Hey guys.
The car is as listed below, 85 GP with 231 V6 and 3 speed.
A guy that I work with is selling a motor from a Monte SS. Stock 86 SS 305 with 4 speed transmission, wiring, etc. He said he'd give it to me for 200 bucks if I came to pick it up. I would've liked to do a 350 more, but wouldn't a 305 be much more of a direct swap since it was already in a G body? I mean, that sounds pretty straight forward. Seems like a good price, but I don't want to buy the motor, install it, and not have it start. Ya know? I kow a 305 isn't as sought after as a 350, but hey, anything's better than that damn 3.8. I figure I could do that swap, do a floor shifter auto conversion, and build the 305 up a little and be pretty respectable.
Input is very highly encouraged!
Thanks guys!!
