If you are in the market for a 225, this may be a good candidate.

“Buick Oddfire 225 engine. Early edition “Patent Pending” (the more desirable model) Offenhauser 360 dual port manifold, Kenne Bell valve train assembly with billet tip roller rocker arms and other high quality parts. I wanted to use this motor in a father / son project we are working on and my son wants to move in another direction. Engine is ready to be dropped in and put into service. First $550.00 cash takes it. I have an engine hoist here at the house to load into your pickup. Please reply via craigslist with you email address or phone number and I will reply to you as soon as possible as I am not allowed to receive calls when I am on duty.”

Ford 2.3L w/ T-90(?) Adapter VT $500

No pics provided. This might make a good upgrade.

“Ive got a ford 2.3 turbo motor that I was going to use in a Willy’s jeep swap ended up selling the jeep so Im looking to sell the motor. The motor came out of a 88 thunderbird ran when pulled. Ive also got all the wiring harness’s, ecu’s, and various other parts to complete the motor. I converted it to an aluminum oil pan off an ford ranger 2.3 motor and also put roller rockers in the head from the ford ranger motor, along with a new timing belt. Im sure It’ll have to be torn down further for gaskets and such due to just sitting on a stand in my garage now for a few years. Tough engines to find now, I also have all the adapters and “pinto” bellhousing to go with the motor if your interested so this will adapt to an early cj2a or cj3a with the T-90 transmission.”

Freshly Re-built ’76 Buick 231 Oddfire in Montana $1000

• CATEGORIES: Engine This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Josh is selling a freshly rebuilt ’76 Buick 231 Oddfire (still wrapped in plastic) with new heads. He can get photos for interested buyers. Contact him at joshjchase@yahoo.com or 3078990027

I wasn’t aware that Oddfire 231’s existed, but based on what I’ve read, the 231 was a reworking of the 225 with Buick 350 V-8 parts, resulting in the 231’s large displacement. In 1977, Buick introduced the first even fire 231.
