Re: 445 or 454

I guess that would depend. If the 455 is between the fenders of a stock Catalina, and the 454 was in a 63 Chevll all tube chassied out. Then I would pick the Catalina.:lol: Kidding.
What are the imaginary parameters of the bet?:metal:

Re: 445 or 454

Assume they are both 70 auto's, highest HP options? Both are ground pounders. Not even sure if the Olds offered a 4spd. But I would have to go with the Chev on both. Barely.:smoke:

Re: 445 or 454

Olds motor I thought built real torquey motors but not much on top end stock and heavy so I would bet 454.
