Remanufactured Cadillac Eldorado 500 8.2 V8 Engine

Cadillac 500 8.2 Engine Rebuild.

1970 cadillac eldorado 500
The Cadillac Eldorado 500 8.2 V8 was introduced in 1970, it was the largest production V8 at the time.
Model: 70-76 Cadillac 500 8.2L OHV 16V V8.

I snapped a few pics of this black beauty when it rolled into the shop.  That hood is really long!

This time it’s a rebuild with installation.  We don’t do too many because we’re busy rebuilding all the time.  I like it when the classics come in.  They have meat on the bone.

Complete Rebuild includes: Bore and Hone engine block, Grind & Polish Crank and Cam, and Valve Job on the heads.
Engine Rebuild Kit with New pistons, rings, gaskets, engine bearings, freeze plugs, oil pump and timing set.
Clean, paint, and assemble.

After we plucked it out, it went to the dismantle station for teardown and inspection. It’s a beast of an engine. Next stop, the Hot Tank!!

Once we scrub it up, we can get to work rebuilding it.  We’ve already ordered the new parts and we are ready to rock and roll.
