hey everyone me wto the site im 21 live in michigan just got my first project car its is a 1973 olds cutlass supreme with a 350 rocket i gave my dad my quad for this car cant wait to get started on it

alrighty then, let's fire up the Sawzall...

Noooo! Bad Techinspector! "Step away from the Oldsmobile. You are too close to the Oldsmobile" 73, that was the first year of that body style. Good thing is, even with the new nose and hood, you can still squeeze a 455/425 under there. Also, there are still aftermarket parts made for those cars. If you want to go on the cheap and rebuild your 350, you may want to look into heads from a 72. Due to emissions, the 73 heads have smaller valves and dont breathe as well. Remember, parts from small block Olds will swap almost universally across the board. The exception being the 260 intake/heads and of course the 350 diesel. Also, beware if you plan to grab parts from a 307. Pre-85 shouldnt be a problem, post 85 has a roller cam and swirl-port heads. These heads have a different port pattern and as such tend not to match up with older intakes. Anyway, Good luck with the car, and if you have any questions, feel free to ask!

Richard did someone over-medicate again ?

Welcome aboard 73.

the only thing the car needs is some body work there is a dent in the right quater panel and the whole thing needs painted the seats need to be recovered.
