Pro Touring 1970 Cutlass S "The Oldsmobeast"

[The_Oldsmobeast]

Well, after several headaches, let downs, and frustrations with the 455 last year I decided to sit down and think about the future of the engine in my car. I wanted something naturally aspirated, could rev, made good power, and could still see plenty of miles on the street without issue. After looking at all options and weighing the pros and cons, I decided to have my dream engine built; the LS7. This engine is a stock LS7 block, fully forged callies rotating assembly, custom comp cam, Golen Racing Engines private label heads, Wegner automotive front drive, and the Performance Design Carbon PTR intake is the cherry on top. The engine makes 692hp and 627 lb/ft, And can easily spin up to 7300 rpm if needed. Not only will this give me a significant power bump over my 455, but also 200lbs in weight savings, and a dry sump oiling system. Check out my video below for more details on why I went this route, and my plans for the swap!
