pakkrat Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 Don't know my oldsmobiles. What's the scoop on those 61-63 v=8's? I have seen the 215 Buicks, but not the Olds. Were they any good and is there any market? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joe_padavano Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 The 215 Olds was the same basic motor as the 215 Buick, but with different heads. Many of the other parts are interchangeable. Olds offered this motor with a turbocharger in 62-63 as the Jetfire.

pakkrat Posted March 29, 2007 Author Share Posted March 29, 2007 I just came across one in a salvage yard. Complete except intake. I'm sure it's stuck. I think I'll pass it up for $100. Thanks for the information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
streets Posted April 12, 2007 Share Posted April 12, 2007 You may want to re-think that Pak. I had two given to me. They came out of a yacht. It seems they were standard in some of them. They are also preferred as rebuilders for Olds & Buick because of their weight to horsepower ratio. I got $600 each from the same buyer. streets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
