--Thanks guys, the caddy motor is a 1968 472 with 375hp @ 4400 and 525 torq at 3000 rpm and 10.5:1 compression ratio....wow, thats stock! oh no, somethings going to brake ;)
Is it true that a caddy motor only weighs about 40lbs more that a 350? and that a caddy weighs in at around 5000 lbs and chevelles only weigh about 3000+ lbs....... wow I can't wait to get this on the road! anyone out there have extra parts for a 1972? thanks again guys and gals! mike On Sun, 12 May 2002 22:49:07 LXVIISS wrote: >Michael, > >I hope you have an older Caddy engine than Sarah lists below.
