If my eyes were closed I would recognize the sound of the starter and Olds Rocket V8.

Sure looks better than the rest of the generic stuff driving down those streets.

425 big block came with the 400 turbo-matic.

Yep. You are right. Without going back through the video, did I say 350 hydra-matic? Oops.

I had a hand me down 1967 88 convertible, my first car wish I would have kept it. Young and dumb full of *** and wanted a cooler car at the time.

Thanks. It sure is a very sharp looking dash. It is all original, just different color vinyl. Thanks for watching!

Very nice car. Didn't hear if you said anything but does this one have the power glide in it? Or turbo350 trans

If stock, this 425 would've had the Super Turbine 400 3-speed trans. The genius of that ST-400 was its switch-pitch torque convertor....ie. it was the closest thing to a "hole shot" automatic!

These magnificent Olds 425s, & later 455s, were the epitome of bullet-proof GM V8s! All this 88 needs to run like a fine watch is a good blast out on the highway to clean out the cobwebs. Knowing that that hood is already in dire need of adjustment, the worst possible technique is to push down on the hood FROM THE SIDE in closing it! THAT is a perfect recipe for destroying the hinges & permanently warping the hood! It's being too lazy to walk to the front to close it properly. If that was my Olds, I'd be in fatso's face BIG TIME! That incorrect-tail-pipe exhaust system needs adjustment as well. That's what you hear on the video making that rapping sound in-synch w/the vibration of the hood.

Never understood why they starved that engine with a 2 barrel. First thing I did wasn't hit the salvage yard for a 4 barrel and dual exhaust set up, man did that 425 come alive.

@@jeffreyMagnum460 ...Olds didn't 'starve' that 425 w/a 2bl. This version had identical torque to the 4bl. version, @ lower RPM, & provided better gas mileage in the bargain. All 425s had forged steel cranks & shocked many would-be racers @ the stop light!
