Hey everyone. I'm not only new to this site but new to oldsmobile and new to forums in general. I recently purchased a 1972 oldsmobile cutlass supreme. It originally came with a 350 but whoever owned it before me replaced that with a 455. I'm happy with that. The body is in good shape it runs and i love this car. I have joined this forum because i have some questions on the best places to get replacement parts for the car and how to get the most power out of my engine. thanks guys.

 

Welcome aboard

1] Fusick is a great palce for parts

2] You're off to one heck of a start replacing the 350 with the 455

3] Post some pics pronto

 

Fusick is the best on service the prices are a little high but you get what you pay for.

Check out the big block section lots of engine builds there plus you can ask questions on any forum and get good answers.

When you reply make sure you are in “Advanced” If it says post a “Quick reply” hit “Advanced”

Scroll down below the box you type in and hit “ Manage Attachments” A new box will pop up.

Hit “Browse”

The hit “Upload” and wait a few secs for the pics to up load. Then close this box.
Next you can hit “Preview Post and your pictures should be there.

There is a size limit on pics

You may have to wait for Dan [Oldsguy] to approve you. We did this to stop spammers.

 

As far as finding out what year the engine is how do i go about doing that?

 

Look on the flat spot right above the water pump and post the numbers. Someone smarter than me will chime in and tell ya.
