Re: 72,91,92,96,99 Cadillac C-10 Pickup truck
This swap doesn't make a lot of sense to me.
From Wikipedia Quote:
I hate to break this to you, but you are going to spend a lot of money on a motor swap that doesn't perform all that well and may not be very reliable, let alone easy to get parts for. There are a lot of other motor swap options that make a lot more sense. A 5.3L or 6.0L LS motor for example. If you gotta have Cadillac, get a 472 or 500. Any Pontiac, Olds, or Buick V8. Even a Ford 302 makes more sense! Bottom line, sell the car intact and get what you can for it to fund a different motor swap. Don't get me wrong, I love unique and out of the box engine swaps, but they have to make sense as far as money/time/power. This one is going to expensive, time consuming, and low on power. Not trying to bash or anything, I'd just hate to see you invest a bunch of time and money into something and not be happy with the end result. A cherry Cadillac like that could pull some decent cash. With the whole "donk" look being popular right now I'm sure there is someone who would pay you a pretty good amount for that car.
