The 455 Olds LOOKS the same as the 260/307/350/400 Olds engine, but it's 1" taller, and 1 1/2" wider than the other engines. I found that out the hard way trying to install a customer-supplied used engine.

The 500 Cadillac (early to mid-70's) is one of the best swaps, more powerful, and lighter weight than the Olds engines.
