There is a turbocharged version that makes 300 HP..!
From what I have heard, they are a popular engine to swap into Jeeps and the small Jap trucks..
Buick also had a small aluminum V8 that was a popular swap in small engine bays.....https://www.hemmings.com/stories/buick-215-cu-in-v-8/
There are still plenty of running examples of the 215 since they were used in Range Rovers.
