See This Massive 1947 Cadillac Sleeper Run 11s At Atco– She’s Ugly But Boy Does She Move!

There was a song in the 1960s that urged audiences, “If you wish to be happy for the rest of your life, never ever make a rather woman your better half …”and also we hear it whenever we check out this large 1947 Cadillac sleeper run 11s at Atco Dragway in New Jersey. This point is the interpretation of amazing. It is uglier than heck, it is the size of a battlewagon, as well as it is quickly sufficient to mangle a LOT of anything that determines to run up against it on the road or the strip.

Placing the 1947 Cadillac body on a GM B-body frame and also repowering the automobile with a solitary turbo improved LQ9 engine leads to the performance you see below. We like the reality that the car appears to be penetrating the Earth under its own weight and also we like the truth that it has second-rate looking wheels on the front with cheap steel OEM wheels. There are a few video clips of this cars and truck being tuned on the dyno rollers and also travelling yet the drag strip footage is our preferred, specifically when the auto is running next to come late design scrap and also you know the man driving the late version efficiency auto is sweating bullets when the huge Cadillac does not vanish to his back sight mirror on the action of the throttle.

The LQ9 engine is an iron block based plant with 6.0 L of displacement. It is an extremely popular mill to use for boost due to the toughness of the block. We have no idea if the cathedral port heads are still on this engine or how much of the bottom end is stock however what does it matter? When you have a large automobile that appears like it was dragged out of a scary film as well as it runs like it was dragged off the collection of a scary film as well!
