Greetings All. Working on a 70 Cutlass Convertible. Swapping 350 for 455. Surely will get to know many in the future. Happy New Year.

Welcome to the site David. Post some pics when you get a chance. Is the 455 stock?

Mild 455 build.

Thank you for the warm welcome! Pictures for the car a ways out. Buried in the garage under "everything." Picked it up last year off a used car lot in MT. Have had a thing for 70 Olds A body for a lot of years. Most certainly a mid- life thing that is already getting out of hand. 2323's 60 over, 9.5:1, Ebrock heads, still fussing over the cam. I would like to see 500 HP/TQ. Sorry to say the car will never see the track. Looking for a built 200-4R overdrive and posi unit for "O" type rear and gears. Freeway is 80 MPH in MT now. Trying to keep the costs down. Not easy.
