	08-13-2005 03:50 AM #1Want to set up 231 Buick in '30 tudor Model A Ford
 
 Not sure if this is the best forum area to post this on, so if not, please excuse error.
 
 Dead set on putting a 231 into my stock Model A Ford. Anyone done this before and any tips about which year engine to look for, which tranny and rear end to be using? I am trying to keep the swap to the "low buck" mode. I am looking for an engine that does not require a multitude of computer gizmo stuff to make it operate either. I am not looking for neck breaking power, but I am planning on making this a "daily driver, beater, rat rod or whatever term fits. Most of my shopping for parts will be in wrecking yards, so any low buck advise is really apprecated.
 
 I have found only limited info on the 231 engine, but it seems that I am to look for an evenfire engine as opposed to the odd-fire engine. Seems this is a popular swap on Jeep sites, but when I go to such sites and mentione the engine is to go into a Model A, no one seems to know much at that point. I have found some info on the Dauntless Buick V6, but if anyone has more info that is posted somewhere, I'd appreciate your sharing it.
 
 Anyone have any pics of a 231 in their street rod to share?
 Thanks,
 Huey
