Extra 472 big block + 5k what should I do?

[03mustangdude]

Extra 472 running motor in a 70 caddy. Extra 5k to put into parts.

What kind of car/setup would be most ideal for the money.

Is it a Cadillac motor? If it is, throw it in the trash with a dollar strapped to it so they can find something.

472

At introduction, the new engine had a 4.30 in (109 mm) bore and a 4.06 in (103 mm) stroke for a displacement of 472 cu in (7.73 L). "Extensively redesigned" to ease maintenance, it used only 90% as many parts and 75% as many gasketed joints as before.[2] It delivered 375 hp (280 kW) at 4400 rpm and a massive 525 lbf·ft (712 N·m) torque at just 3000 rpm. The new engine was about 80 lb (36 kg) heavier than its predecessor. It was used through 1974. It was designed with potential for a 500-cubic inch displacement.

Looks like it would be a pulling sob

Thinkin i'll just sell the caddy more than likely who wants a car that gets 6mpg

[War Machine]

2 door or 4 door? how much?

[03mustangdude]

2 door probably 1800 or so needs 2 tires aired up and power steering fluid added and its ready to drive.

2nd owner here so you'll be 3rd.
