I have an awesome 1956 cadillac fleetwood sixty special. This lady is straight and drives awesome. Only upgrades i've done is smittys glasspacks and flamethrowers. I figured that would keep me happy for a while.... Well that while is over !!! I own a body shop just outside boston ma. Now it's time to get bagged !!! The only thing that's killing me is that i can't find anything for high perfomance to do's for the 365 engine under the hood. I would love to slap in some dual quads. I can't find an intake to make that application happen. This one guy on ebay is selling an adapter kit for b&m megablower kit ( homemade :/ ) i don't want to go that way. I wouldn't mind a sucker sticking out of the hood just for the look. I just want the power to be there, i don't need to use it. I'm just weird like that. If anyone has any info it would be much appreciated. Eat some lobstahhhhhhh !!!!!!! Lol
Welcome from Kansas. You have a challenge with that motor. Here is a website in Albuquerque NM that might give you some ideas/direction: http://www.cad500parts.com/ Willy_P
Hey guys. Thanks Willy. I checked them out already. They don't have much for my motor specifically except rebuilds and parts. They specialize in the late 70's 472 - 500s. Great site to find parts. I will continue my search.
Welcome from The Boston Area! You going to the Workd of Wheels? Stop by the Kingpins display in the motorama section & say hello. I'll be there pretty much all weekend. -Rich
Welcome from NJ. Have you searched the classifieds? There are two people selling dual quad manifolds, one is an original factory. I have a 4X2 one I'm sitting on the fence keeping/selling. Haven't been motivated yet.
Welcome from Oklahoma. I grew up in Cadillacs as my dad was Cadillac man. One of my all time favorites was our '58 deville. Don't remember what engine as I was just a kid, but something about that car just did it for me. He traded it in for a new '62 and although it was nice, just not the same. Good luck with your '56. Oh, and how about redistirbuting the wealth --- send me some lobstahhhhh.
