Good point :) All the G-body cars are great candidates for engine swaps and to build a sleeper. The Cutlass on review is more logical to find one with a 307 V8 already in there as the car on review was born with a V6 which means you have to change and alter a lot stuff. With the 307 already there the Olds 350 is pretty much direct bolt in. Same goes for the Chevy 305 (an alternate engine in some Canadian models) and going with their 350. I myself like the tooling, high compression and durability better on the Olds engines.

Why buy a Olds engine? Spend more and get a less weaker motor. Not a collectible car and the 350 has millions on the road. Much stronger motor, more power, parts everywhere. One of the most popular engine swaps ever in many models. You can keep the engine quiet and smooth. Or endless performance upgrades. The 350 is better than the engines that came stock in the Cutlass, Grand Prix and Monte Carlo (same platform). A mid size car lineup.
