    That looks to be in excellent shape, and a cool build.

    There's more space between valve covers and firewall than with a stock V6 installation. I'd like to see how he did the radiator support interface.

    You can kinda see it in the side picture of the engine. Looks like the radiator is several inches forward from the stock location.

    That is the Oldsmobile version of the 215. Technically, a stronger with an extra head bolt per cylinder, but the Buick/Pontiac version didn’t have problems. The Olds used beehive tapered valve springs too. Only negative is parts are much harder to find for the top end of this engine. With the position of the shifter and the clearance of the head to the firewall, that should have the deeper aftermarket bellhousing that uses the longer T90J input shaft.
    This looks like a real solid Jeep with a nice engine swap, KH rims, and overdrive. Could be a deal.
