Projects Bye Bye Flatty, Hello 390 Caddy

Now that's a tight steering/header fit! Go Marcus!

 

More like Go Kevin Gallagher, he's kicking ass on all the Bitchin Fab work. Aint no way I could do any of this without him.

 

is that one of squeek's bell housings. how do you like it compared to the other adapter. I've been lusting over one, but can't afford it right now.

 

Its a neat Bellhousing, but I did have huge issues with this one which delayed my project a few days.But Squeak has been real cool about it, he's away in NZ right now and offered to send me another one.I already had this one machined so he is offering to pick up the bill.I guess he forgot to trial fit it to an engine before he sold it to me.

 

Can't wait to see it running...bitchin Marcus and some great fab work.

 

very nice love the caddy motor

 

You are a class act. Keep up the great work.

 

That Cad mill is looking fabulous!

 

BEEEEAAAAUUUUUUTIFUL!!!

Naah seriously that looks so good that I have to go out in the shop and polish something...Damn those inspirational pic's...

 

This engine swap changed my mind on my flathead, I have always wanted a cadillac motor in a hot rod, now I am going to do it!
This car is bitchin, killer thread!

You'll be glad you made that choice too...Flatheads are neat lookin engines, but you cant compare the power and torque you get from even a stock Cadillac 331 much less a hopped up Caddy 390 and I think they can be just as good looking too.

 

^^^^^^^^^
Yes, I agree! Thanks!

 

.

Um, ya boys, That's about as good as it gets right there.

Awesome Marcus.

Yes Yes Yes.

I would have traded you my rebuilt 341 Desoto hemi and 2x4 setup for that flathead... The caddy should be bitchin though, look forward to seeing it!

 

Fired it up today!, man does it sound great...Took parts off to be plated..getting closer!

 

Cadillac built Y-blocks? Whodathunkit?

Looks perfect. I agree, I wanna see a video of it running.

 

Your gonna chrome the headers? Man that thing is gonna look GOOD.

 

yep chroming the headers, motor mounts, pulleys, backing plates and steering arms

 

WOW,you must like waxing stuff

 

Holy freaking beautiful mill right there!
