Richard,
I'm looking at the 300 Buick V8, that followed the 215. They can share the
same heads; basically the 300 is a stroked 215, in fact a common mod is to
use a 300 crank in the 215 block. The 300 was in the '64 model years but
like the 215 it would have been developed well back into the 50's.
Cheers,
Rick

Shouldn't we just reply to the list?
