    CUTLASS SP2P carb options?

    So, been rethinking intake options for the Olds 260 as it comes out of hibernation in a few weeks. Have a SP2P intake for it, new dual exhaust and a trans rebuild planned. Looking at the SP2P I see it has a dual pattern carb mount on it. The Holley 390cfm carb has been recommended as a good...

    CUTLASS Horn conundrum..

    In process of switching over the standard steering wheel in the Cutlass to the factory sport style one. Stock wheel uses a wire to connect to the "switch" which is in the horn pad. Sport wheel uses the old standby plunger and spring arrangement to actuate the horn. The new wheel came with the...

    CUTLASS Dash Cluster swap - WTF?

    So, I bought a used Rally dash a while back to swap into the '78 Cutlass. Have the standard granny dash with I-dot lamps and my kids been hammering me to get it done. It cools down below 100 deg tonight so I dive in. Fairly easy to access it all and pull the cluster out. Looks like I'm missing...

    Takin the train...

    Station that is;) Just down the road from me. Local train station built in 1868 had to be moved as it was too close to the existing tracks that are being upgraded for high speed passenger travel. DOT said move it or we'll need to tear it down. So, with some grant $$ and fund raisers the town got...

    CUTLASS Th350 vs TH200 cable and brackets?

    Looking ahead to my trans swap and wondered if the cable bracket on the intake is different between a TH200 and a TH350 equipped car? Motor will stay a SBO, carb will go from a dualjet to a Quadrajet. The TH350 has a kickdown cable on it from the donor 3.8 Monte so I'll assume that will need to...

    Trans cooler lines - leaker ....

    Got the new rad put in and had to piece in a new section of trans line at the lower fitting as the old one rusted/twisted off when I removed it. I can not get that sumbich to seal up:mad: Short of replacing the replacement line, any words of wisdom from the masses?

    CUTLASS Fan sizes?

    So, I got my new rad today so I figured now would be a good time to install the new to me fan shroud I got from someone here a while back. If any of you have ever seen the stock 260 shroud, well, there isn't one. Just a "top plate" so you don't dangle your digits where they shouldn't go. The...

    CUTLASS Modine 569 or 570 radiator?

    Anyone have an older Modine radiator application guide or catalog? Cutlass radiator has started to pee out of the lower tube and I'm pretty sure it wont heal itself. Found a place fairly local (driving distance) that has a Modine 569 and a 570 listed for decent $$, spozed to fit a G-body. Any...

    Slantbacks again......

    Seems they're popping up like dandelions on a spring lawn...…. Here's a clean one on my local C/L: https://vermont.craigslist.org/cto/d/chester-1979-oldsmobile-solan/7175133415.html It's a Solan, so a bit more rare...…;) Looks clean, but the "will take offers" is just stupid IMO. Either you know...

    MONTE CARLO How would you fix this?

    Can you buy single seat covers? I see " sets" for sale, but can you get a stock replacement for one seat?

    CUTLASS TH200 shifting issues

    Got a weird one going on, haven't been able to pin it down yet. TH200 in the Cutlass behaving a bit weird. Starts and goes fine, shift up 1-2-3 as it should. Come to a long hill, or if you want to pass a slow mover is when it happens. Put your foot in it and make it downshift, so far so good...

    Window sweeps?

    Bought this set last year: window sweeps Noted to be for "with special molding". Pulled the old one off, the sweep part rotted off the chrome beaded assembly so there was a nice gap between the door and glass. I pulled the new ones out of the pkg today, and found they have no chrome bead...
