253 crank is identical to the 308 crank.
Welcome to Just Commodores, a site specifically designed for all people who share the same passion as yourself.
we have to all focus on the question:
whats the best way to get power out of it for cheapest. the answer is going bigger cubes. strangely enough, buying a 308 is cheaper than most mods and will automatically deliver more power. it can be used with the same diff, the same trans and doesnt need any engineers cert.
I'm not disagreeing with you, except he's already said he wants to keep the 253.
what we are trying to do is save the guy from heartache. there is NO reason good enough to keep a 253. you cant claim is because "its the engine the car came out with so im trying to keep it original" cos' the second you throw a cam and some headers on, you have lost the factory/stock standard 'playing card'. he wants power, then dont piss around and put a decent engine in that has proven time and again to be able to deliver.
Some people do like having the original engine in their car.
