455 Olds in 84 Cutlass - motor mounts?

[Mallard Road Garage]

Just a note I run a torquer intake and a quadrajet with a aftermarket hood that combo may or may not fit depending on the condition of your body mounts under a stock hood

I have a cowl induction hood so should be plenty of clearance.

Interesting. I wouldn't think that a single plane would give enough signal to a Quadrajet...

Well I calibrated it to work with my engine but in theory why would it matter the engine is making the vacuum signal not the intake the only thing the intake is doing is manipulating the airflow And bonus it comes set up for a qjet😉

If you have a cowl induction hood you'll be fine. I've heard of problems with clearance using the stock hood. I've seen the Toronado intake used with the stock hood.

Go with a Performer intake and Felpro head gaskets with iron heads.https://www.summitracing.com/int/parts/fel-8171pt1/make/oldsmobile If any milling was done to the block or heads, only the turkey tray intake gaskets may fit without milling the intake. It will probably help if Edelbrock made them straight to begin with. Hopefully it was machined properly with adequate clearances. Good luck, it will be very fun if built right.

Appreciate the response and recommendations. will the Fel-Pro gaskets work okay with a .030 over bore on a stock 455 rebuild?

Yes, they are supposed to be a 4.250" bore.
