120 Years of Cadillac
Has anyone else noticed the 120 Years of Cadillac advertisement? It mentions the 1964 model twice:
"The 1964 Cadillac Series 62 Coupe combined style with power, boasting an all-new V8 engine with more horsepower and torque. Today, the powerful Escalade-V is the first SUV to offer the V-Series badge."
"Cadillac offered the first automatic climate control system in 1964. Cadillac’s dedication to comfort continues with LYRIQ’s next-generation Active Noise Cancellation and seating architecture that offers lumbar support and massage."

Nice that someone at GM remembers! Not sure why they singled-out the Series 62. (Probability: The intern sent to do the research didn't know the difference.)
If they'd chosen any of the up-level models from '64, they could've also touted the intro of the world's best automatic transmission. The new Turbo 400. And tied that into the 10-speed automatic in the Escalade. Which is a really good trans. I have a new Escalade with a Callaway supercharger (602 hp) and it's more than up to the added amount of torque.

That is fantastic and great timing as I have started a side project of cataloguing and posting the 1963 and 1964 Cadillac related adds. Here is a screen shot of both.

Edelbrock Carb Block off Plates
Posted by Chase on March 12, 2025 at 2:05pm 14 Comments 1 Like
Hey guys,
I have installed the same Edelbrock carb and have done everything the same as Jason’s carb and intake project. In the spring and summer months the car starts, runs and idles great! In the fall and winter months on a cold start, the car starts awful and wants to die until it warms up. I have to keep my foot on the throttle until it warms up or it will idle just terrible and try to die. Once it’s warm, it runs fantastic! Whats going on here? I was thinking of removing the…

Loud air moving sound within carb with cleaner removed
Posted by Dave Fehrle on March 23, 2024 at 3:23pm 8 Comments 1 Like
While checking my Carter carb with engine running, I took the air cleaner off and there was a very loud hissing sound of air. I placed a piece of paper over the carb and it didn’t move up or down, is this normal?
