Richard,
Why would you want to mess with the 215 Buick engine? I have a block
from one that I made into a coffee table. The only advantage it has
over the 289 is that it won't rust. With its cast iron cylinder sleeves
and re-enforcing, it weighs nearly as much as a 289 block. Plus there
aren't exactly a glut of high performance (let alone any) parts for it.
Why not consider a Buick GNX or some other turbo charged hi output 6?
