-----You know, I was just looking that car over on E-B and theres something wrong under the hood that I cant quite put my finger on. For one, I think the Olds had a different aluminum motor with the same displacement possibly. Maybe the same block but different heads. At the very least the valve covers are the Buick 215 style on this Cutlass while the correct Olds 215s also had stamped steel covers but the had ribs stamped in them the full length of the cover. Take a look at the engine in the cute little 63 Cutlass convertable and you will see what I mean.........Bill S
