It is pretty much the same process of a sbc swap except you need to get everything from a 307 powered car. The trans should bolt up if you want to use it. If you have junkyards around you with those cars, it should be pretty easy to get the parts needed. Post up a wanted ad for the 307 frame mounts so you dont have to pull an engine to get them. There are plenty of people here swapping 307s with sbc so they should be easy to find.
 
frame motor mounts from 307 olds cutlass,V8 raditor from 78-88 Cutlass,v8 fan shroud,move battery and fuel lines opposite as they are now. get motor brackets off of 307 if you want ac otherwise these brackets sucks if you dont want ac, they squeal w/o ac.
 
Be aware that the 307 frame brackets are different for RH and LH, so you need to be sure you get them installed on the correct sides.
