1981 Olds Ninety Eight Engine/Tranny SWap
Does anyone have any information on changing my engine and transmission in my Oldsmobile. I have a 1981 Ninety Eight Regency with a 307 engine and TH200 tranny. I would like to replace it with a 350 Chevy crate motor and 700R4 tranny. I also would like to use headers on the new powerplant. The car is listed by General Motors as a 'C' body so the headers will have to fit along those lines. Any ideas, books, tech sheets and technical personnel will greatly be appreciated. Thanks, Dirtee Redd!

Engine swaps for big RWD Ninety-Eights
Ressurecting a very old thread. You can swap in a Chevy motor, but the 700R4 trans will require mods to the transmission crossmember. The best resource I have seen on doing this kind of work is a book called Chevy TPI/TBI Engine Swapping, it covers every detail you need to know.
I once retrofitted throttle body injection (TBI) onto a stock Olds 307. At the time I was not aware of anyone who had ever tried this, but I believe you can get parts and kits these days to make this sort of thing much easier.
