So glad to see she's coming along. Can't wait to hear her purr...

[@jalopyjustin]

Me too! I can't wait for it to finally not leak everywhere it goes, lol

Good to see you tearing into the toro again.

I would kill to put this in a 80's hurst olds with t tops. I remember talking with a 60's 442 at Carlisle who told me this was a popular swap with 442 owners.

Been waiting for this beast to re-emerge 👍

I drove my 68 Toronado on the road when it was icy. Drove nicely. If I punched it i stayed straight fun enough

I'm curious you said you got a new intake manifold, can you tell me the one you got? I've looked for one for my '66, not easy to find one with that low profile,,,thanks

Hi, I just bought a 1989 Cadillac fleetwood deville with the 4.5 like yours. Do you have any tips to keep them healthy? Thanks.

[@jalopyjustin]

Keep on the maintenance, change out the coolant every 30-50k depending on road/commute conditions and you should be good to go. The 4.5l and later 4.9l are great engines that don't require as much upkeep as the ht4100 and later Northstar engines
