Post your track times with your OLDS powered Cutlass

Hooking is in setup. Buick powered turbo V6 12.4 at 109. Cadillac 500 powered 12.5 at 110. Both pump gas AC equipped drive it anywhere setups. Both had a lot more in them to be tuned out.
 
Previous owner ran a 14.57 low 90's pass but he had the stock exhaust and the timing lazy, basically wasting all the cam and head work and it wasn't a posi so the 3.73's were just smoking one tire and killing the 60'. I hope to get a couple of passes later this month, I'll re-post then. Judging from the 20-60 times I believe this little .030 over 307 with 10:1 cr will go in the 13's. :wink:

I want an Olds motor for my 83 Monte Carlo is that a crime for crossbreeding. Its still Gm. I once had a 72 chevelle with a 455 olds in it. Bought it that way. Ran quite well but sold the motor to pay for another project.
Weird that you say that, im putting either an Olds 425 or 455 in my 83 Monte Carlo SS.
 
I am in still finishing my resto...but once its done I will have it at the track with and without slicks so I will post times then. The parts for the resto are listed below...but no clue what this thing is going to run.
By the way, running 7's in that blue cutlass is sick! Nice work man

Spill the beans on your 307 build.
 
I've got a Olds 350 built by Mondello that was the previous engine in this car. That thing would run right around 12 flat all damn day. Motor was great, but I will never give Mondello another dollar again!

I bought it this way engine wise, +.030 I don't have the cam sheet in front of me but something like 218/222 @.050" with .473 lift, not sure, I'll get the specs and post it, little lumpy idle but far from radical. Heads are 5A shaved .010", ported and matched to heads and intake, polished with 2.00" intake valves, roller rockers and Performer intake. Still running computer controlled Q-jet and HEI. I'm still running stock exhaust manifolds with 2.5" pipes to a high flow y-pipe to 3"single into a high flow Magnaflow cat 3" in/out to high flow y-pipe using 2.5" pipes into Magnaflow straight throughs with 2.25" tail pipes. When I did the exhaust, the butt dyno felt like 20-30 h.p., but the clocks will tell.
 
I didn't know 2" intake valves would fit in a 5A head without valve shrouding? What pistons did you use to get 10:1 CR?

I'd be interested to see your times with your new exhaust.
