this was my first olds motor,...luckily i have a few friends who are guru's with them otherwise iwould have built it like building a chevy and probably would have blown it up by now..(i wasnt aware of olds's oiling isues ).

B.T.W. where did you find 1.6 olds rockers, or did you splurge for the conversion to adjustable ones? also if you are interested i have a 2400 converter practically brand new(i bought it, installed it ,and it wasnt enough for my combo so it came out 1 month later) and im always willing to barter or sell for any items of = value... also i have many other parts for olds's so ask before you spend big$$$...I truly believe in this statement....why buy new when used will more than do.

I don't know much about Oldsmobiles...but I am guessing I am near 400 hp with a TH350 and 3.42s. I turned a 13.98. IDK if that will help.
