Have had same frustration with them

10:51 @ 126 512" Cadi

I spotted this car on craigslist and when I looked at it I had to buy it though I need a broken leg as bad as another car. White 2 dr, blue cloth interior, v6, auto, one left side mirror, "no radio" never had one but it has electric windows and manual locks. AC works, runs ok, they said it uses...

Removed the converter flashing 3200 and put in a new Hughes unit that flash's 4000-4200 -supposed to anyhow. WOW -pulls like a mad bear! A friend said it was squirrely in first but went straight when I shifted. Had felt like it waddled down the track with 10psi/28x9's, so I put 14 psi in them...

I decided to leave mine alone. I had someone tell me they knew someone that had taken there's out and only shed about 10 pounds per door. Allot of work for to little for me.

Have been looking-thinking of ways to take more unneeded weight off of my GP race car. I changed a door on a Cutlass once, -they are HEAVY DOORS. The bare shell can't be to heavy?- skin and inside panel. There is a good size crash bar I guess you'd call it from front to back. I haven't looked...

Made 2 runs, was not as prepared as I had thought. Never driven on a drag strip before, so the tree was tricky-FAST for me and the helmet and straps. lol To much to do. Left in 2nd gear and freaked out because it didn't shift when I went for 3rd and let up for a moment. 2nd run -left a tad late...

Couple pics of the Cadiac from last year.

"From a post" I had the pleasure of working at Olds Engineering as a co-op student '81-86. Got to drive lots of 442s and some Hurst Olds too, working for Bill Porterfield. Darth Vader was one car I never got to drive. A buddy got the keys and had it sideways leaving the security gate. No one...

Anybody ever see this? A guy on cadillacpower said this sometimes had a strong 403 when tested. http://www.oldsfe3x.com/fe3xcutlass.htm

The 529 is .060 bore, forged pistons, rods, 10.5:1 compression, first issue Bull dog heads, Cadco 600 H cam, MTS adjustable shaft rockers, MTS single plain dominator intake-1050 carb. Right now I have an HEI dist with Mallory guts. The HEI is gonna have to go in favor of an MSD box. I likes much...

529" Cad in my 85 GP close to rolling out of the garage.

10-15 years ago in Car Craft or?? there was a yellow 56 Chev 2dr sedan that by all accounts was another clean old Chev rod. It had a 460 ford in it. A friend told me some years back he went to a all Ford event in another city and a mid-late 70's Corvette rolled in, -yes it had a Ford engine in...

Once a guy was at the house with his wife, -I referred to my GP/Cad 500 as the baby Coupe Deville, -she went around the side looking all over for that Cadillac. Finally came back and said she didn't see it. We had been talking all along about putting 472/500's in stuff other than Cad's. LOL By...

It's funny to see the look on a Hard core Chevy guys face when he sees the distributor in front. -A Cadillac engine.
