A guy came into the shop a couple weeks ago looking for an a/c part, and when i asked what motor was in his Astro, he told me a 305. ???? This was a curious thing to me so I said, "are ya sure? the computer doesn't show that engine as available." He says " Oh Yeah. I bought it all stock from a little old lady and I just got done replacing ALL 8 plugs in it." I asked, "Would it be ok if i go out to the parking lot and look at it to make sure its a 305? I wouldn't want to get you the wrong replacement part". he said "ok"
well that was the first 305 i've ever seen with only 3 plugs per side.... has anybody ever seen a v8 conversion in an astro? I've heard of them, but never actually seen one. I ended up telling the guy that the puter lists the replacement part for a 4.3 but the front of a 4.3 is the same as a 305, so this should fit your van.....he went away happy.

I could never be that diplomatic about it. One of the reasons I don't deal with the general public anymore.

it's easier to do a V8 swap in an Astro van then an S-10... no joke.

and don't ask me how I know, I really try to repress bad memories
