Default 66 Cadillac LSX

Hey guys Ive been building my car now for a couple years and had put some money into the stock 429 when the thermostat stuck on me and I cracked a head. I decided to pull it and get an LM7 and 4L60 to replace it. I put an LS1 intake on but am now going LS6. I want to put a differnt cam in it put plan on going turbo soon.



Accuair Elevel, with Mobsteel wheels

Definitely something I want to do before I croke. I would like to get a 1970 Coupe Deville and put an LS7 mated to a T56. Keep it looking factory though. Good luck with your build!
