Re: 429 Cadillac motor....should I?
I just went through the pros and cons of a swap like this. The only difference is I was considering putting it in a 29' chev.
I don't think I need to go into the pro's since most of them are quite obvious. The two cons that made me change my mind are, these engines are very expensive to rebuild and the nail in the coffin for me was parts availability. I plan on driving my car, not just to local cruises either. What happens if it breaks down in the middle of nowhere, parts for small/big block chevy's are still relatively easy to find in most any parts place. Big block Cadillacs not so much.
