    You might see one one ebay once in a while, but it's easier to find a injected 304 at the moment (better motor too)

    Hmmm let me think hard aobut this one...
    Ebay, Car forums, Wreckers
    If none of them have one then ask mates, ask mechanics, put the word out. Not to hard really.

    Well a blue 308 from a WB would also be the same wouldn't it?

    The wreckers always have em. Otherwise just try the trading post and stuff.

    Yep, WB 308s are the same, although some have a turbo pattern blocks.

    Haha I was thinking the same thing
    We have HQ-WB and early commo wrecker here, plus another one about an hour away has heaps of older cars.
    Local wrecker only has jap crap, but can get commodore stuff at insane prices (450 bux for a VN executive door no choice of colour)

    easiest way is with a "donor car" will have everything you need (just about). anything up to vl will all bolt straight in, if you wanted to go vn+ 5l i'm led to believe the whole K frames bolt straight in but most of the rest vn+ bits are useless. Even a v6 conversion will be a huge jump in power from the slug thats in there.
