you might be suprised to find out that they really arn't fetching big bucks,
the 215 was a great engine but just not big enough fo most of us Buick guys,
plus with the advancement of the 231(3.8 Litre) V-6 there was a much more
common alternitive, the 215 makes a really cool Hot Rod engine though! I'm
still wanting to do a 1st gen RX-7 with a 231 V-6 in it, I do have a spare
455 out of a 70 Electra 225 lying around though......Naaaaa, just too evil
and I really don't feel like building a tube frame :o)
