Okay, this is simply a hypothetical idea from boredom on a rainy Saturday, but follow me on this.
I know that these weren't available in '79. However, after looking at some info regarding how Olds was able to put the Olds 350 in these cars and keep it legal, they could have done the same for the 403, right?
If I read this correctly, it states that Olds could equip a limited number of these Hurst's (under 2500) with the Olds 350 since there were already Olds vehicles eqipped with these engines for the model year.
The 403 was offered in '79 as well so Olds could have done something similar. Offering up a Hurst "442" ("4"03 cubes, "4" bbl, "2" tailpipes).
Am I off base, or is this a missed opportunity?
Anyhow, wouldn't this be a cool idea for a "factory equipped" Cutlass?
