I finally got the engine in my Cutlass running. This car has not been running for at least a few years and I am very excited for this. This is a '70 Olds 350 that was running when I bought it. All I did was changed some gaskets, the oil pump, and timing chain, and put it in the car. It might not look pretty, but it runs great so far! So far, there is only a small coolant leak, I am sure more things will pop up.

Here is a short crappy video. The camera didn't really pick up the sound of me revving it up.

Thanks for the warning!! We'll be sure to move over when we see you comming!!

 

I wish it was possible I still have a lot more to do before the car can be driven. From the top of my head I can think of it needing a crossmember, brakes need to be bled, need to run a fuel line from the gas tank instead of the 5 gallon gas can, need trans lines, put the hood on, actually get the front clip bolted in, and who knows what else.

 

A little more to do, but it sure sounds good. Andy

 

Very nice Are those straight pipes or is that a different exhaust?

Its always nice to make progress, your getting closer one step at a time, sooner then later you'll be cruising

 

Thanks! Open manifolds My crappy camera doesn't pick up how loud it really is. My dog hates me now! Since I can't afford to get the exhaust system put on right now, I will try to rig up something from 307 manifolds and crossover. I am thinking a single pipe to a muffler ending right before the rear end.

Thanks! I'll be happy when I don't need to push it around in the driveway and it can move by itself
