A 1970 Cutlass pace car with a swapped in 455, because, in the seller's words:

I guess I must not be an "Oldsmobile enthusiast"...

Looks too tight already

 

What you didn't know that?? LOL

 

"with factory air conditioning which always blows cold but does need a recharge." So it doesn't blow cold right now but always does. GLWTS.

 

So did this pace car not have dual exhaust from the factory?
Note the crossover pipe has been cut and welded instead of having the cap used on N10 optioned cars:

 

I dont mind when when people say these kind of things because they really dont know or they are misinformed...its the people that do know the difference and will try to pass something off to make a buck,

 

My 72 has dual exhaust and has the identical capped exhaust as in the picture. If someone did it after the factory built it, they did it EXACTLY like in the picture. I have an L34 350. How can I determine if it was dual from the factory?

 

Your vin would have an M in the engine code. 350 4bbl with dual downturned exhausts

 

ALL SBOs with factory dual exhaust used a cap like the one in the photo below on the passenger side manifold. The factory did NOT crush and weld a section of pipe like in the photo above.

 

The good news is that the cowl tag DOES say "Y74", so it's legit.

 

Nice looking car. I have the same one
