The discussion of an Olds vs. Cadillac engine is interesting. After hearing various viewpoints, I'd like to offer my own. While it is true that Cadillac parts...
You've provided us with some great information, and since you have had some experience with these horsepower ratings, I would like to ask you a few general...
Dave, Gross horsepower measurements are obtained by placing the engine on an engine dynamometer and seeing what it can do. The standard engine accessories...
Dale, et al, Years ago, when I turned wrenches on German cars, people would ask how many horsepower their car had. Porsche owners were always disappointed...
Anyone know the part # for the lower radiator hose on a 1982 33 ft. of course 454. While I am putting a water pump on it I want to put the lower radiator...
Your original chart suggests that an alternator, water pump, exhaust and air cleaner can consume incredible amounts of power. I gues thats why Banks can get...
I found the part number for the hose. For anyone that would be interested it is a Gates # 20842. I called Marty Moore, he is on vacation for 2 weeks but the...
I am putting a 180 degree thermostat in it. I would rather have it run cool than have to watch the gauge when it starts climbing. I think it will get hot...
well I went to my first Revconeer Rally. There were only two Revcons in attendance. I was the token slant nose. There was one other '77 flat nose w/tandum rear...
First of all, did anyone ever find out if the Caddie-badged Flat-nose (that was dead, but for sale) had (originally) a factory installed Cadillac engine in it?...
Dave, I'm glad you attended the Rally and am surprised at the fact that you had the only slant-nose there. Who'd have thunk it? Did you turn anybody on to our...
I have a 1971 250 and it is in excellent shape. I got it a month ago and have since stripped the paint of (it was not good) to the raw aluminum. Are there any...

Hi Richard and congratulations on your purchase. According to my owners manual(1974), the oiginal tires were 10x16.5 Super Single 8-ply on the front, and...
Richard, I plan on putting some serious work into my Revcon next year. The paint on it is poor and should be removed and not painted over. So, I'd be real...
If everyone helps we can figure out how about how many were built in each year. It can be done. Post your unit number and and build date, if we get enough...
Getting of the heavy part of the paint is the easy part, it is the Zinc chromate primer that is tuff. Mask off or remove the taillights and turn signals etc......
