Topic 1: Has anyone ever tried mounting an oil cooler under a GT lid just above the fan, and if so does it keep the temp low enough for DE events?

Topic 2: Has anyone here ever adapted motronic from a 3.2 to work on a 2.7? If so, what is involved? Which distributor? What cam? Stock low compression CIS pistons or JEs?

Topic 3: What kind of power can I get if I keep the CIS but am willing to port the heads, change cams and go to JE pistons?

Please feel free to address any or all of the above? I have a '74 2.7 core that is currently torn apart and ready to send out for machining. It already has case-savers and nikasil jugs, so I am going to stay at 2.7. I have all of the CIS parts, so that is an option for induction, but I would rather do something else (other than carbs).

I will also be running stock 6 heat exchangers and a 911 muffler.

I just can't bear the thought of rebuilding this thing and only ending up with 150 hp, so any tips would be most appreciated.
