Re: What a car week, so far

I need to get tires on that 442 before we get it off the hill it's on!! Sounds like it's time for the Durango to spring into action. I had the same crap happen to my '99 Suburban. No sealer I found could stop an intake leak like I had. If yours is just seeping, it might be OK to run with sealer th

What a car week, so far

Yesterday while towing my stepsons '95 Volvo that he just blew the engine in, my '01 Chevy van just stopped running. Had to be fuel pump or ignition. Turns out it was pump, and for $975.00 it was running fine today! Didn't have time or the desire to work on it. Hard to believe a fuel pump is $490

overhaulin

I know everyone wasn't crazy about foose's cutlass overhaul but tonights overhaulin was excellent.  He did a 68 bronco upgraded but pure to its roots, you purists will love this overhaul.  It would look great pulling a nice olds behind! Love cheap thrills? Enjoy PC-to-Phone calls to 30+ countrie

Re: Low oil pressure-engine rebuild-update

Olds offered a 400 hp engine in their 70 Toro. Well, that's what they called it from the factory. That's not an honest 400 horse on an engine dyno today. Bruce, you should not mess with the 350 if you want 400 horsepower. Go with a 455. It will have 400 horsepower fairly easily and 600 pou

Olds offered a 400 hp engine in their 70 Toro. This is a lot of premium gas. Better decide now if you want to keep driving it regularly, or build a racer. Bruce Roe 18 Apr 2006 [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: > Body shop friend recommended a guy in Pa.who will tear down the 350 > to see > what

Re: Low oil pressure-engine rebuild-update

well...you can always keep the original block in a bag and run whatever you want so you need to decide 455 (most raw power) or 425 (fun, different) or 403 (more cubes, small block convenience) or 350 (originality) if you're going 455, making 400 HP is easy and not expensive, use the usual 11.0-1

RE: Seeking '76 Cutlass parts

Depends on condition and what you feel is a good price. I sell the ones I have for 125.00, but I also have 9 of them. I have seen some try to get as much as 250.00. ron     1969 cutlass s 1969 442  cali car. assembly required 1972 cutlass convertable 1976 phx y-76 arizona regional car

Low oil pressure-engine rebuild-update

Body shop friend recommended a guy in Pa.who will tear down the 350 to see what it is that I actually did, and then lay out a plan to rebuild or find a 455. Either way, it stays all Olds. It's a father & son operation. This friend runs a 9.5 sec Camaro and has had this team do all his work fo

Re: my olds just got stolen!!....

That sucks!  I always hate to hear that someone had something taken from them, especially something of great importance to them.   I'm in the SW Houston area and will keep an eye out for it (perhaps on its way to Mexico?)  Aren't too many White/Woodgrain wagons around here with missing windows so i

I have a console and a shifter out of a 75 Cutlass and I have contacted this guy direct, but my question to the list is, what do you guys think a fair price for the console and shifter should would be?   Keith Rapid City, SD
