78-87 cutlass

Joined over the summer never got a chance to chat. I have always liked 1978-1987 cutlass and buick regals. Especially 1978-1980 styles. I know it's not the most popular years,but I've always liked the blockey styles.Ibought a 1978 cutlass calis over the summer with a boat anchor 260 2bbl. Bought a 350 olds 350 trans to swap in,with some mild upgrades planned cam intake etc. Interested in talking about 350olds or 455olds swaps in these cars. Anyone around Pittsburgh Pa. with parts for these cars would be good [doors;hinges]. Iwill check in later with some cylinder heads casting numbers.

I like the 78-80 Cutlass as well.

78-80 is the "A" body and 81-87 is the "G" body. That info will help you when buying parts.

The 350/350 will be a dircet swap. In fact you can use all the parts on your 260 on the 350, although I wouldn't suggest most of them
