datzenmike Posted October 19, 2019 Report Share Posted October 19, 2019 The Olds valve covers are not so tall. Quote Link to comment
goes2fast Posted October 19, 2019 Report Share Posted October 19, 2019 They could be aftermarket as they look like aluminum cast covers that have been painted and the Olds front drivers were the most common. Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted October 19, 2019 Report Share Posted October 19, 2019 Cadillac had distributors on the front, Olds were on the rear of the engine. 2 Quote Link to comment

datzenmike Posted October 19, 2019 Report Share Posted October 19, 2019 I can't make out the rear distributor on the back so assume it's Cadillac. 40 minutes ago, datzenmike said: Cadillac had distributors on the front, Olds were on the rear of the engine. Quote Link to comment

goes2fast Posted October 19, 2019 Report Share Posted October 19, 2019 I think you are right as the plug wires look like they are running toward the front. Quote Link to comment
wayno Posted October 19, 2019 Report Share Posted October 19, 2019 To me it looks like the distributor is likely in the front and that line in the back looks like a fuel line, but that photo is kinda blurry. Quote Link to comment

That's what people say about me among other things. But seriously no dizzy in the rear or plug wires running from back to front. Valve covers like datzenmike said. Appears to be a Washington plate? We need to find this thing? 3 Quote Link to comment
