  2. I wondered the same thing. There was an awful lot of hardware taking up engine bay space with yesteryear's turbocharged engines. - - - - - Happy Father's Day to those who have taken on the challenge of raising a rugrat or two ... or three ... and giving it their best.

  3. I miss Plymouth quite a lot. '57-58 may have been their peak, stylistically- the Division punched way above their price class with that generation. And this one doesn't even have the optional bumper wings.

  4. The 260 was available in the Cutlass w/ a 5spd manual...was one of the first American cars w/ a 5spd, I think...started in 1976 I think...

  5. Great link. Our family had both Olds V8s - the 350 and the 260 - at some point. Weird that the latter initially propelled 4,000 pound Cutlasses! (Weird that Cutlass and LeMans used it, but not Regal/Century). I'll never forget how smooth they were and their great rhythmic sound. Their very last V8 (307) was also of heirloom quality, given that Cadillac used it to power their RWD cars, just like Cadillac previously chose Olds to modify their 350 to incorporate fuel injection to power their first Seville, another success story.

  6. Yes, the 330 was the first of the 2nd gen Olds V8s...sounds like there weren't many meaningful differences from the small block and big blocks other than some dimensions and heavier duty materials in the big blocks (and not as visually differentiated as Chevy small blocks were from big blocks). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oldsmobile_V8_engine

  7. Nope: Olds also did the big/small block thing. In the ‘60s the 330 and 425 were totally different.

  9. FWD with AWD optional and M-B DEFINITELY tries to pass this turd as something fancy. Bullshyte 4Matic trim making AWD standard making it seem this turd is fancy FWD with AWD optional and M-B DEFINITELY tries to pass this turd as something fancy. Bullshyte 4Matic trim making AWD standard making it seem this turd is fancy And bottom of the barrel turd. FWD with AWD optional and BOTH Mercedes and BMW are hiding the fact that they both wants to sell to former buyers of Chevrolet Cavaliers, Pontiac Vibes (Toyota Matrix) and Saturn Ions.

  10. No, the 396 was a big block, Mark IV engine family like the 402, 427 and 454. Chevy did have a 400 small block in the 70s. As far as the 403, I didn't think Olds had a small block/big block distinction and that like Pontiac they had one basic engine family for years.
