Title: Sick Oldsmobile power !
Post by: GlassCutter on September 12, 2013, 10:19:20 PM

I just got my latest issue of Popular Hot Rodding.   They did a story on a guy who built an Olds for the 2012 EngineMasters Challenge.   Dig this . . .

Take a generic Olds 350 diesel smal block and make 876 hp and 672 ft/lb @ 6200 rpm with a single carb.    Oh yeah !

It takes a lot of machine work and tuning. But those blocks are bullet proof.
