Thanks for all of your posts. I am first going to make sure this swap is feasable at all. The guy who owned the Vauxhall before me was thinking about a chevy S-10 motor & trans combo. I know someone with a Triumph motor & trans he wants to get rid of but it hasn't ran in years. I Have the Volvo here and it actually runs albiet a cold start problem which I will ignore for now. I didn't want to stir up too much trouble, but a simple carb solution would make things easier. I've helped on a couple of engine swaps before, but nothing like this.
289 Ford V-8 into my father-in-law's Model A and a Ford 1.9HO (carb version)into my brother's EXP. There is a lot more things consider for this swap. I may have to take this slowly.
