Paul,
Welcome to the board!!
I'm not a racer but hope to surprise lots of people with my Caddy powered pick-up......whenever I get it going

The motor is in pieces and still needs machine work, the original 350 is still in the truck and it's in the garage covered with junk. I hope to get busy on it this winter.
Do you have any pictures of your dragster? I'd like to take a peak at it.

Hello Paul,

Welcome to CadillacForums!

I just posted about an El Camino that I just bought in the Lounge area. I am putting a Caddy 425 CI and TH400 in it in the near future. Would love to hear more about your Dragster. Keep it comming!
