      I'd like to put a turbo on a 5.7 without destroying it, the early ones had too few heads bolts. I had a 6,2 diesel (1982 K10) , I always wanted to put the Banks turbo on it, and put it in a '80s Oldsmobuick or somethin' else

      Good Lord it would need a whole new front end every 5,000 miles. 6.5 is a heavy turd of an engine, it's reliable but it's not winning any races.

      I wrote the above before the end, yes do the above to one of those 350 Olds diesels. The interior is very plush indeed, the outside should match, patina is way over rated.
      Would make a great sleeper with a converted to gas, bored and stroked 350 Olds diesel. Bolt a th400 to it or a built 200R4 and do some drag racing videos? To bolt gas heads to one of those blocks you just need to drill the head bolt holes for the larger diesel block tapped holes. You should be able to get over 400 cubes out of it. Racing in luxury, keep the AC working too.😎👍

    I don't think the engine you got in the car is bad. Really wasn't sure at first, but look how much the idle smoothed out by your first stop. And that's running waste oil and ATF in the tank? It barely smokes even toward the beginning of the video. The reason is doesn't have much power up the hills is probably the transmission isn't downshifting. You might want to check the governor and the detent cable. But these engines were underpowered anyway and it's still a big car - the gas 307 was barely able to keep up on steepish hills with the kickdown working and the secondaries on the quad wide open (remember the speed limit was 55 everywhere in the 1980s). Like, it did it, but not impressively. Even in a lighter car like a Cutlass it felt doggy. And the diesel was slower. Back to the point: I don't see that much actual blowby. You're saying the engine is worn out, but I don't agree. It could run this way for 10 more years if you can live with the performance. It wasn't much better from new. (Your comment about idiot lights and Part 2 spoilers is intriguing - please tell me you didn't overheat it and cook it? They will blow head gaskets if you don't treat them right.) The ATF in the tank might have actually helped it clear out some scud. But it's really possible this car's engine was good when you bought it.
    The car looks to be about an 83 or so. These would have had some of the updates to the block and, of course, the 200-4R transmission. I didn't take a close look at your donor. If it has a 3-speed transmission it may be from an older car. Look at the casting #s on the block before you decide what to do. It could be an early block. Or it could be a later one that was swapped in under warranty. If you intend to build it as a diesel - and maybe modify it - the later engines were more reliable. (I think the cutoff was 1981 but I don't remember anymore). Just something to be aware of before you put money into a core.
    In general, I don't know about using these blocks and converting them back to gas, but these cars have room under the hood for a tall-deck Olds like a 455, which seems easier. Easier, yet, a shortie like a 350. Or even a 403. Whatever you can find. Once you are switching the car to gasoline, honestly, almost any gas V8 will move that car through the hills with more confidence and less investment. I wouldn't hate you if you LS-swapped it. The finished product would run and drive a lot more like the car this was meant to be than a lot of the alternatives. Drive an early 70s 98 with the 455. They weren't drag racers but they weren't struggling to move.
    For diesel, though, I'd choose another diesel, if i were building this car today, with this chassis, if I wanted gas-like performance or better. But it depends on your vision and your budget. A Cummins R2.8? Not much lighter but they will run circles around an Olds diesel. But I think a new R2.8 runs about $12K. There are other modern diesel engines but most of them are around that displacement before they start getting too heavy or large. Here we see the deal with these Olds diesels; the engineers weren't stupid. They knew the design had limitations. They could have pushed a lot more power out of them even naturally aspirated, but they'd have had to add more weight to the engine and/or more machining cost. Compared to a Mercedes naturally-aspirated diesel, they weren't much slower (just less volumetrically efficient). But the Mercedes diesel with a turbo was a lot less frustrating to drive. Even with an automatic (which most Mercs had and nearly all GMs with the 5.7). It wasn't fast but it felt like it was doing its job. So, if you're crazy about diesel and crazy in general, get a bunch of money, find a bunch of alternatives and see what fits under the hood and makes you feel like you've got a proper Oldsmobile.

      She's an 83 with factory 350dx 200-4R. I was in the motor. Its shot trust me. I bandaid fixed it but it uses tremendous amount of oil regardless of viscosity or fancy additives. I even tried using a GALLON of Lucas once....

      This could be a great teardown video, then. Another good video could be seeing if you can get that 200-4R to kick down; I don't recall but there were a couple of things in the hydraulics that could stick and cause the issue.

    In the spirit of bad decisions and why the hell not, ls swap that with a manual. Thats the only option that doesn't make sense, so that has to be the answer.

    • @rickytaylor5076

      @CompleteToiletGarage That engine is just losing compression. The folks at Mercedes made a fix for that. They call it a kompressor, you should try one. In America, it's called forced induction. Tell you what, you put you a kompressor on that machine, and you'll have one of the finest automobiles around 😉 👌 😆 🤣 😂

    Turbo this engine until it blows up, then 6.5 diesel swap it. It’s the only logical choice.

    You should really call up Pisser down at the HackNPackShop to have him fix the body on it.
    That would be one hell of a collaboration.
    You know he's making videos again? Really awesome videos at that!
