      They can get pricy compared to others. I’m currently getting pieces for efi port injection to do a turbo setup. The cam sync distributor just came in today. Good luck on your project

      @@SWBjr15 this is a 243/251 cam 103 centerline with 8.5:1 compression. One of my other videos has the full engine breakdown.
      It is Holley 750, edelbrock intake, slightly worked over heads, roller rockers, cam, and eBay block hugger headers. I now have bulldog intake the the fuel injector bungs, 4150 elbow, throttle body, fuel rails, coils, ecm, accessory fuel tank, fuel pump, 92/103 turbo, bbc headers to modify into turbo headers, 4in air to air intercooler my last big expense is injectors and wastegates

      @@dirtcheapmedia3390 My goodness! That Nova is gonna move! Already moves nice, but with boost and the fuel setup it’s gonna be mean! I saw a twin turbo kit online and it really intrigued me, but I’m finishing the trans build and rear end narrowed etc so I’ll be N/A for awhile. I did gap the rings for up to a 150 shot but if I do run spray I’ll only do 100. Also I’m running the MSD billet distributor, and Rev limiter box. My cam and stuff is specked to 6200 but I’m going to set it to 6K max just to be safe. I think my compression will be 9.25:1 if I specked it right lol.
      I’ll check out that video with your full build specs!

      @SWBjr15 you running the msd 85141 distributor? Good friend of mine recommended boost over nitrous for reliability and consistency. We’ll just have to see how it goes as I am able to afford more parts. Me and my wife just bought a piece of property so that I could build a shop in the future that is taking a bunch of time resources.

      Many years ago, my best friend shoehorned a 501? Caddy engine into a 70s Olds Cutlass. This reminds me very much of that.
      Thnx for sharing.

      Thanks bud it’s pretty quick but it still has a bit more in the tank I think. I’m going to reroute and go bigger on a section of fuel line to avoid heat and hopefully have less restriction this weekend. Then I’ll do some more testing.

      Cool thank you. I just got a 500 from a 75 caddy and came with a TH400 trans . What you built there is what I hope to accomplish.

      Thanks.Cadillacs can get expensive fast. if you go to big on cam you will need adjustable roller rockers rockers, tall valve covers and headers are not cheap as well. There are some budget options though.

      Unfortunately due to how large the engine is it takes a large cam to get good chop

      They’ll have to outlaw all forms of fuel for that to happen. But those days are coming
