I have already done this job . It is not hard. Any Olds V8 will fit . I recomend an early olds rocket 350. I put a 1971 olds rocket in an 86 cutlass it runs great the owner never runs out of power. Just buy two motor mounts for that year V8 it will bolt right in. Do not put headers on the 350 they won't clear the frame in the late body style . Use the complete exhaust manifold and crossover set from an 81-86 307. this combo is a bolt in swap for that wheezing 3.8. Use a 3.73 rearend out of 86-87 monte carlo s.s your olds will then be the ultimate family car.
