OK...When I bought my 85 Cutlass it had sat in a garage for years. With only 84K on the clock, that was a no brainer. I should have wondered why there was a forest of tree de-odorizers in the car (at least 10) throughout the car...but the flawless (save for the carpet) interior and rust free...

OK...another question. I know that I can use the accessories from my 307. Should I use a small block water pump as well, or is there a difference? Any advice on the AC bracket for a pancake style compressor? Last, for an HEI distributor, what is best to use (stock pre ECM unit or...

So I got a 71 455 from a limo (actually, a stretch hearse...) that had been put into a 70 Cutlass. The engine has headers for that car and Moroso chrome valve covers. 2 problems here. My 85 Cutlass has AC which I want to retain...will the tall Moroso valve covers fit? It looks like it will...

Odd question. I just re-did the carpet in my 85 Salon. I forgot which way the center seatbelt went...sitting in the seat, does the latch go on the right or left? I know...trivial stuff, but I tend to get particular about small stuff like this... Neil Samuels Littlestown, PA

So, I may have a buyer for my Olds 350 engine, so the TPI conversion is looking like a go. I found a place somewhat local called Jim's Performace that makes a G-body specific TPI harness. http://www.jimsperformance.com/tpibuy.html . Anyone familiar with them? Are their harnesses good...

I'm looking at a cost effective option for a rear wing on my 85 Cutlass. The Challenger wing can be had for $75 on evil bay, and has the right "look". I'm not going for the true Hurst Olds look, as I am using louvers (ala 70 Nova SS) on the hood instead of the faux scoop. Anyone try one of...

Anyone know of an Olds friendly car club in the Gettysburg / Hanover / York, PA area? The only group of car guys that I know of runs on Saki...no US made cars to be found there (although there are a few VW's)... Just curious, and miss "project weekends" back in Baltimore... Neil Littlestown, PA

Wish there was a better way to leave feedback. Package received within a week of payment, packed very well and in near new condition. Very pleased! Neil

I am looking at a Comp Cams Hi-energy cam (42-221-4) or a Voodoo (256/262) cam from Lunati. Can either of these cams be used with the stock (non-adjustable) rockers and pushrods? If not, then what is the cheapest way to make a better cam work with a 69 Olds 350? The last engine that I built...

I have an 85 Cutlass Salon, 307. The heads are stamped 7A, which are...correct me if I'm wrong...the small "swirl" port heads. My manifold is stamped A4. I thought the A4 manifolds only came on the 5A heads. Is this the same manifold? Would the ports match the 69, 5 headed 350 that is going...

I am looking at a 70 350 rocket engine to replace the very tired 307 in my 85 Salon. The dilemma is whether to try and keep the computer and swap out the secondary rods and hanger on the carb, or to eliminate the computer all together. Bearing in mind that I want to keep the stock gauges and...

I stumbled across a rebuilt 1971 cutlass 350 4bbl engine...I believe they were rated (in the old style) at 300 hp. Its been on a stand for 5 years since the rebuild. I am leaving the bottom end alone, but was thinking about swapping cams. I'm not looking for max hp...rather, being a street...

I just picked up an 85 Y code Cutlass Salon with a "blown engine"...that isn't blown. Lots of lifter noise, that cleared up with some motor flush and a fres oil change. Anyway, the previous owner cut both plugs off of the radio harness (as well as the lighter plug and the plug that went to, I...
