    It isn't that at all Harmon. I just think because this engine is out of the mainstream, we don't really have any info to give to you. I know there are companies who specialize in Caddys but I can't remember their names now. I got parts for my Olds engines from Egge Machine, and they seem to have stuff for most of these oddball engines.

    Sometimes we just don't have answers to give someone, and this is one of those cases.

    PS: As for pros and cons, Pro is that they are good, tough engines and make good torque. Cons are that parts are not as available as for a Chevy or Ford, and you are going to pay through the nose. I have about $ 4000.00 in parts rebuilding my 394 Olds, and it is a relatively mild engine. I could have built two Chevies for that money.
