Sllloooooowwww Build of 78 Cutlass

[crab0000]

I thought I would start a thread on the build of my Cutlass to, hopefully, keep me motivated. Instead of typing out a lot of info I'll post a video I made six years ago (I can't believe it has been that long!) that covers the basics, then post some pics of the current state of things. Please excuse the mess in the garage, I'm working on it!

The current state of affairs...

Awesome!

Looks like you're underway. Keep us posted.

Do you still have that 76 Qjet? If so, consider dumping that Edelbrock carb and getting the 800 cfm Qjet custom tuned. Paint those headers as well with something like VHT high temp paint.

No, it's long been gone. I am actually looking at something like this https://www.jegs.com/p/FITech-Fuel-...400-HP-Throttle-Body-Systems/3539375/10002/-1 It won't be driven too often, so I want it to start when I'm ready to go.

Fun project with a lot of potential. Post a link to your video series when you can.

Please clarify.as I'm trying to figure a solution for my 455 stage 1 to get it serpentine fitted😉 also I have a bbc 461 that I'm attempting trial and error on with sbc/bbc serpentine components.i know a out kwik performance and the homemade "mr" adapter brackets,but looking for something that utilizes both as it not needing to be pretty or up to my OCD "warren" standards as it's only going in one of my k30 for winter duty.

March has a complete set-up, but I think it is prohibitively expensive.
