This size motor was manufactured from 1968 - 1976. In order to find the exact year there should be a number 1 high casting on the bottom left corner of the block.
The Rocket 350 oldsmobile engines will bolt in as well as the Rocket 455 olds.
In 1979 Pontiac did not make available any 455 (cubic inch) engine. The largest available was a 400 4bbl in the Pontiac Trans Am (220 net horsepower). Also the "rocket engine" description was only applicable to the Oldsmobile Division. The 455 Rocket Engine (Oldsmobile) was discontinued in 1977 where the largest engine was the 403 cubic inch Rocket Engine V8 rated at 185 net horsepower available on the 98 (a 350 cubic inch was standard) and the Toronado. It was also sold to the Buick division and available on the Riviera.
Yes i Don't know how many Oldsmobile Cutlass 455 were made but it wasn't as many as the Oldsmobile 350 Rocket. So it was a big plus if you had the 455 engine because it wasn't as many around.
Oil filter location should be on passenger side rear of block
A 1974 Oldsmobile 455 V8 has horsepower of 275 to 400. The Oldsmobile 455 was last produced in the year of 1975.
at least 365
Oldsmobile stopped production of the 455 in 1976. There were no 455s produced in 1987.
yes if you have the Oldsmobile motor mounts. If you are asking if engine parts will interchange....Absolutely not.
The 455 will fit. The transmission might have a shorter tailshaft, though.
The bhp of the 455 olds in 1973 was 225 in delta wagons, delta 88, and olds 98-bhp for toronado was 250 and this engine was optional in cutlass-compression ratio was 8 to 1 with deep dish pistons. It has a 4.13" bore and a 4.25" stroke standard
455 in the GTO.
with enough welding, fabrication, and beating, anything will fit anywhere. i fit an olds 455 rocket into an s10 blazer. anything is possible if you have the time, ability, and patience.
