Ultimate Sleeper! LS swapped 1977 Cadillac Seville V!

Alright so this is Brandon's 1977 Cadillac Seville and just tell them a little bit about the car. Of course. So yeah as Sandy stated this is my 1977 Cadillac Seville. I bought this about two years ago from a local kid in some prairie. He got it on trade for a Harley that the owner who had the got this I guess from a maybe like an estate sale or something. The gentleman had passed away he had signed the title before that and this thing had been sitting since at least 2017 and I picked it up from him gave him a few grand for it and it's a really clean car. It's very clean. Yeah it's definitely been resprayed once in its life. There's evidence of that but I believe it's supposed to be a factory color. Sunburst orange metallic something like that what they call that. It's a pretty color. Yeah. The top works well with it. Very much so. Yep 1977 it's got about 80 some thousand miles on it and I can probably believe that too for being original. Evidence that they had to kind of get their way in after the fella had passed away and the drill lock out the trunk is the same way but the keys do work. Oh there's got some tracks. I think it's baked in the sun all around. Pretty damn nice car though. Yeah I like it a lot. It's been a labor of love that's for sure. I think you need to tell them what's under the hood. Yeah without leaving anybody suspicious. Originally this car when I That was fine but I had picked up an LS 5.3 truck motor for a hundred dollars and it needed some work. One of the cylinders had some pitting from rust from coolant sitting in it so my friends at T&B's in Monroe Tom Krenz used to work there who's been on this channel before and went 20 over it's got Summit pistons I think same stuff that was in your motor there Sandy. Yep and it's gen 4 rods and it was a 99 block and so it's got first year 5.3 I believe block and got a used cam off marketplace. Pretty decent spec shipped from Michigan. Tom Krenz found that for me as well and went with the non-traditional route and it sits on top as a carburetor. Hey it works. I can tell you that it does work really well. I was able to reuse all the stock truck accessory drive which was great. I had to put a little adapter on the back side of the power steering pump to go from standard to metric and that's that little brass piece. I don't know if you can get a picture of it if you can't that's all right but something on Amazon really cheap on the very back of the pump you'll see a little yep yep and so I was able to reuse the factory lines I just had to heat them and put some different bends in them to make it work. Heck yeah. This is an Amazon radiator power steering power brakes yep and about 300 more horsepower at least 200 I'd say yeah this is uh the old was fine but this is way more fun. I send shorty headers swap stuff on eBay and then I made a exhaust of my own x-pipe and a half inch stainless through mufflers and resonators. Hey we like that kind of stuff. Oh you gotta start it up with the cutouts open it sounds awesome. Now it's quiet. I love it. Should we go for a ride? All right guys what if I told you this Cadillac is like right it's like a freaking uh I love it. So what made you want to buy this car? Well I was sold. And then we pestered you enough to get another project car? That too yep like okay it checks the box you got a V8 four-door. Different you don't see it often? No I don't think I've ever seen another one to be honest with you. Especially not another LS swapped one. No these cars in general but they're cool and they're they share a lot of stuff with the x-body cars the people interested in their trunk pan back is all Nova. So did this come with a 400? Yes. Okay sweet. This is the 400. Yeah you put the ultra bell on it yourself? Yes. Yep. 1000 stall converter and a little chip kit. Hell yeah. I don't think the old old's would pull that hard. Not a chance. I took this thing uh with the old's motor to great lengths to see what it would do. Have you had it back with this set up in it yet? Yes but not with the okay so how much time did you pick up from the old's to the LS? That's crazy. What's the next plan? Well yeah hopefully install well not hopefully I will with your help sanding it with some nitrous. Yeah he's got my old nitrous plate kit uh so we're gonna strip and then take it back to the track again. I think it'll be an 11 second. Oh for sure you can get a good 60 foot out of it it'll go 11s with like a 150 shot all day and this motor can handle more than that honestly so. hell yeah. What rear gear's in this? 3,000 rpm. It's awesome. What'd you think gunner boy? Okay guys Brandon gives into peer pressure so comment down below that he really needs to put a big single turbo on this thing because that's what it really needs. Nitrous is cool but boost is better so let him know comment down below thanks for watching love you bye
