Re: caddy 500 vs gm crate 454
![lol](http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/images/smilies/lol.gif) I think I might build a badazz OLDS for my truck ![lol](http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/images/smilies/lol.gif) Really, as they go(in stock form), the Olds,caddy,poncho Big blocks pull the tork from waaay down south. This is due to the long stroke....455 olds is a 4 1/4" stroke, & the Cad is longer than that. A BB chev 454 is 4" even on the stroke, so its not to hard to see why the "other" bigblocks make so much tork way down low(nice hauler mills) ![Wink](http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/images/smilies/wink.gif) having run both Olds & caddy, the Olds is still my favorite big block(just my choice)......if you guys really dig a 401 Rambler, go for it! Be sure to post picks of the mounts tho ![haha](http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/images/smilies/haha.gif) best of fun, ![crazy](http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/images/smilies/crazy.gif) L
