I've never been into cadillac stuff so I have very little knowledge on anything cadillac. I also noticed this engine has only 3 exhaust ports which is kinda odd definitely not good for performance which is probably one reason Cadillac engines weren't more popular.

This is my buddy Jimmy, he lives about 10 minutes from me and he's a very skilled builder. Check out his channel Ledhead kustom plastic.

I'm using the engine in a 62 cutlass awb car so I'm not building a factory replica but when I googled 62 and 63 Cadillac it showed both ways. I'm gonna just put it in the rear as the parts pack shows and go with that.

From what little I can find I think the 49-63 engines had the distributors in the rear and 64 and later were located in the front.

I know we have some very knowledgeable guys on here who know about early Cadillacs. I have the Cadillac parts pack engine (yes I know 354 is incorrect) it shows the distributor in the rear but while searching for reference pictures I noticed some are in the front. Can some explain the difference? I also noticed many are a darker blue color is this a factory color? The parts pack engine would be the 49-63 engine?

Nice score Rick.

Still a very buildable car and the 79,80 and 81s are extremely lightweight cars.

Very nice chevelle.. great color choice.

Wow you got really close on those taillights, nice choice on the wheels also. Very nice job

I found a similar car today while surfing the web.

I think it needs the top chopped.

Looks good

Nice job

Are you using the chassis from the Pro street j2000?

I think that's probably the best looking funny car ever. Very nice job

Very nice job

Just found out my buddy Jason Green knows you. I'm always looking for stuff to buy or trade we may have to meet up 1 day and do some trading.

You live about 10 minutes from me, I live in Rossville close to Ridgeland high school.

WOW!

Do you guys live in the Chattanooga area?

Big thanks to Rich (rsmodels) for the 61 comet taillights. I wasn't having much luck finding a set and Rich happened to have a pair he sent me. Rich thanks a bunch !

You did a great job. I've wanted to build it but I can't find anyone who makes those decals. Nice job building a cool car.

Edit.... I found his website.

67-69 plymouth valiant would be nice.

Can't go wrong with an awb chevy ll. Nice job and great color choice.
