Re: [BaadAssGremlins] engine swaps





The book I mentioned in a previous post is cheaper than I thought: try 21ST CENTURY TURBOS.com or

DICK DATSON, PO BOX 49614, SARASOTA, FL 34230 for info on turbocharging...$15 +$5 SHIPPING.

My 258/4bbl/cam/head work/headers 74 Gremmie X does pretty good on the street. Looking for a little more but not sure what. Hope to dyno this summer.

Love this discourse!
I decided to warm up my 258 since the S-10 V6 I had kinda available would have only given me a .1L advantage for all the grief the swap would have cost.  I am considering a lot of the tips in a publication I got when I bought my (2nd) Gremlin: "21stCentury Turbo" by Dick Dotson, who features in it AMC prehistory from the Stude V8 built by Barney Navarro at Indy earlier on, going on to several constructs of the '80s and all in great detail. His coverage of various AMC, Stude and Buick V6's has lots of photos and diagrams plus engine specs and recommendations seem very complete and I'd hope some of you that read this could comment as to the validity.

I'd soon beef up the AMC inline 6 before I swapped in a V6 just my opinion. 4.0 with the fuel injection and maybe a turbo.
