Default 1972 Olds Convertible 408ci 4L80E Powered

Here is a couple pics, and a video of the 1972 Olds Cutlass Convertible that I have been working on. Its not finished by no means but it does run under its own power now. Details below. I hope to have the engine bay cleaned up, the gauges installed, and the final tune and dyno in a couple weeks.

need to get a different air cleaner assy so you can get the stock look back, just wouldn't look right with some big gaudy scoop tacked on.
p.s. took a little while to get past the rainbow socks

I took that off another car, just to run the engine. I have a low profile K&N for it now.
