It has a capacity of 4 quarts.
put on a new PCV valve.
could be motor mounts, does the engine "rock" when you put it in gear? Have someone put it in gear while you look under the hood.
301 pontiac engine mounts and 76 chevy nova frame mounts
Yes, long as u put a engine kit in it.
Yes...you can put just about any engine in anything with the proper skills, time and money. If the Cutlass you have has an Olds engine in it now then the transmission will bolt right up to the Pontiac engine. If it's a Chevy engine you'll need a B.O.P. transmission. You will need to change the motor mount location. Depending on the year of the Cutlass it may actually have the bolt holes drilled in the frame for the Pontiac engine mounts. For reference, find an older Grand Prix with a Pontiac 301 engine. This will have the correct mounts and location. You will also have to change the exhaust head pipe locations.
Yes. You will need to mount the engine 60degrees, however.
Can you bolt on earlier heads/intake/exhaust manifolds.. from a 1970 Pontiac 455 to this 76 455 engine.
No such engine as a Pontiac 400 Big Block. The back of the Pontiac engine block has a different bell-housing bolt pattern than the Chevrolet. Pontiac and Olds bell-housing bolt pattern match. Chevrolet and Buick match. Unless you have a dual bolt pattern transmission (GM did make them) the Pontiac engine won't bolt up to the the Chevrolet transmission.
Need differnet engine mounts, depending on what engine was in the trans am to begin with. It's not hard but good luck, it's time consuming.
