Looking for anyone who has done, or has info on putting a Chevy V8 into the big 60's and 70's Cadillacs.
I have seen a couple with BBC's, a 454 and 502.
Just wondering about the front motor frame mounts. Is there a source for them?
Fabbing is fine with me, but just looking for some others to confer with.
I have a 1970 Coupe DeVille with a dead engine, and can't seem to locate one in my area.
Thanks,
Mike

I would stick with the Cadillac engine. They are far superior to any Chevy engine you can put in! They aren't that hard to find, any 1968-74 472 or 1970-1976 500 will fit your car.
