".....You just might have a slight traction problem......"

Ya think Kind of the point for the whole exercise

Another big plus on the Caddy is that it’s supposed to only be 50 pounds heavier than the SBC.

I’ve had several El Caminos over the years and still have the 68 BB/4sp/12bolt one I’ve used as a shop truck for years and the 84 I’m building to sell.

The problem with the 68 is that once I get through doing the planned restoration on it will be too nice and valuable enough I won’t want to use it as a truck (unfortunately the same problem I currently have with the 76 Dodge I originally bought to replace the 68 for shop duties with ).

Anyway this is a down the road type project (chances are I might get the SB swap in the 87 D50 done before I start on this one). Having one around even it is a back burner project will make selling the 84 a little easier. I’m just kind of looking for some input on the swap right now.
