Looking at a 1983 GMC w/ a cadillac 500 motor
Not sure if the 500 ever came in a rear wheel drive car. Every 500 powered car I've owned was in a front wheel drive Eldorado. Great in the winter! Could always bolt a tremec on that beast..lmfao- GMFORLIFE

where is the kick down cable end supposed to be at rest on the 4 bbl. linkage
It's fine the way it is. Glad you got it fixed correctly.- GMFORLIFE

There should be no bracket! The slop in that bracket is causing your problems. Needs to be straight..not a W shape. Connect your kickdown to the carb....if it doesn't fit..get the correct cable or move the bracket holding the kickdown cable closer to the front of car.- GMFORLIFE

Build the engine. No better feeling than having your engine all torn apart on a bench. Put it together with all new parts. When that motor comes to life..youll have the greatest HIGH there is...- GMFORLIFE

Burb Needs a New Transmission
Prices today are high. I just use the old turbo 400 and pay as I go. New transmission will be $2000. Why not swap a tremec for another $1000. Shouldn't take long to recoup the savings in fuel...- GMFORLIFE

500 cadillac is a great engine. Vintage air kit is about $1000 and includes new compressor. They may have had to remove the stock ac components to get the engine to fit.- GMFORLIFE

no power to starter/wiring issues
I always use a remote solenoid setup with headers. Removes the problem of heat soak on hot restart.- GMFORLIFE
