Are those Olds aluminum pieces (block & heads) factory or aftermarket? I can't say as I recall Olds ever producing those back in the day, but maybe they're one-off engineering/experimental items

Fred Built his 1970 Convertible 442 as a "What if" GM would have buillt one.....it's an amazingly built - what if car....even the stereo system, is a one off.

Fred see you at MCACN in 20 days.
