the only reason the 304s were sold here (based on the 308 with revised internals) is that we're the only country stupid enough to take them off GM-USA's hands.


The 304 was never a US engine. They were always built here by Holden and used in local vehicles only.

The reason they were sold here is because they were cheap and people continued to buy them. From a business perspective that makes plenty of sense, even if they were second-rate crap from an engineering perspective!
