Great! Welcome!!! Hopefully you will find lots of help and support here.

There is some grill companies that support the list, but I have never seem one on the 93-96 FWB's.

Is yours a Fleetwood or Fleetwood Brougham? In 1993, how did Cadillac differentiate the RWD Fleewood and the FWD Fleetwood? (Sandy?? Ideas?) Bet that drove dealers nutty.

I have a 94, and love it. One of the best cars I have ever owned. Take a look down the option list, see what RPO (Regular Production Options) it has. It is always interesting. You can find a good list here: http://myweb.accessus.net/~090/cfb.html Look for option V4P, that is a pretty rare one on most FW's. And on yours, will be 3.73's.

There was no front wheel drive Fleetwood in 1993.

Do a search for the grille here. I think there was a post before about the same thing so you might be able to find the answer somewhere.

There was a 1993 Fleetwood. The also was a 1993 Fleetwood Brougham.

The FWD Fleetwood was a C body, based on the Deville powered by a 200 HP 4.9L V8.

The Fleetwood Brougham was a V8 RWD car, redesigned and virtually identical to the 1994 Fleetwood/Fleetwood Brougham. Then in 1995 and 1996 they moved the mirrors to the doors and other minor changes.

Yeah there was a 1993 Fleetwood and a 1993 Fleetwood Brougham. But they're both the same car. Like I said there was no front wheel drive Fleetwood in 1993. Instead they had a Sixty Special like what Sandy has. It looks the same as the 1992 Fleetwood on the outside but it has different seats.

The 93 is a nice car to have. If you're planning on doing serious customizing, you'll be more than happy with the TPI-350. The LT1 is a more powerful engine but doen't look nearly as nice as the TPI once you start adding some chrome.
For the past 2 years my engine has been pulling 3-pumps, 8 batteries and a fifth wheel. Even with all that it was still a powerful engine.

I would bet if you were adventurous, you can get a TPI 305/350 intake and then get a set of Vortec heads and you should be very close in power to the LT1. And all by never removing your block from the car.

The 96-99 Vortec 350 heads are around $485 new at any dealer. Fully assembled ready to bolt on. Worth 30-35 hp out of the box compared to the stock L05 heads.

just changing the heads, huh? sounds like a good start.
