Vette(s): 1972 base engine coupe. RPOs AV3, C60, M40, N37, N40, PO2, U79
Hard to say what's available over the water in Bahrain but you'd do well to visit a GM dealer in Saudi and order one of the many available small block crate engines.
1972 Mille Miglia coupe

Just remember, you still will have to run your ECM if you have a Crossfire. The ECM controls your torque convertor, and some temp items.

I ordered my engine from Pace Parts:http://www.paceparts.com/store.asp

They had the cheapest price I could find. They also were very knowledgable about what I could put in my '79.

Give 'em a try!
