Default 1966 Olds Cutlass

I've been a member here for a while so I figured I would finally post about my project. I've owned my Cutlass for about 5 years now. Shortly after I bought it I had Bill Trovato drop a '68 455 in it.







My engine was built by Bill Trovato.
1968 455 Block bored 30 over
rotating assembly balanced
Edelbrock Heads
Edelbrock Torker Intake
KB 455 pistons/pins 14cc dish 10:1 compression
Cat H beam full floating rods
Comp Cams hydraulic roller cam
Comp Cams Aluminum roller rockers
CSR electric water pump
MSD 6AL Ignition
2" Kooks Headers (Swain Coated)--3" exhaust
850 Demon Carb
11" Competition Trans. converter (3000 stall)




Last summer I Dynamatted the interior:





Then I had some BMW M3 seats installed:





Next I decided to tear out the front suspension and install ATS AFX spindles & steering arms, SPC Pro-lite UCA's, and SPC LCA's. I replaced the inner/outer tie rods, the pitman arm & idler arm, and the center link. Also installed SPC performance springs and double adjustable Varishocks.






The entire front suspension and the steering box, intermediate shaft & steering column removed:




Wheels are off--getting ready for the Forgelines:
