Up for sale is a 1991 Oldsmobile Cutlass Calais 442. (Was told it was a W41 I never ran the VIN but I'll supply to you if you like) Powered by a HO Quad 4 and a Gertag 5 speed. The car formerly raced Lemons (not with me) sale of car includes all oldmsobile/quad 4 spares I have. Cylinder heads, cam holders, cam shafts, crank, bearings, rings,ECU's, throttle bodies, factory service tool kit, factory service manual, turbo exhaust header, Quad 4 to VW trans adapter, second set of BBS Wheels. The pile of parts is a lot.

  Car currently runs but has top end noise. Previously had a very loose timing set may have skipped time. new timing set was installed but may be off a tooth on intake side. Not sure but I'm not going to get to it any time soon. $500 located in Riverside CA

Do you have the full quad 4 to vw adapter set(plate and flywheel)?  If so you can probably ebay that on its own

I do have a weakness for quad4 lemons cars, but you're way too far from me for it to be practical. (Ohio here.) $200 should move it. Have you posted it to the lemons forums and Facebook pages? I can post it in the forum for you if you'd like

Kid i knew in high school had one of these that got the absolute e36m3 beat out of it. And it took it! We did things in that car that it should have never been able to do, lots of offroading.  Its the car that made me realize that a 200$ car could provide thousands of $$ worth of smiles.

The HO Quad 4 is ab amazing motor 

I got a local guy that's probably gonna grab it to run as an IMCA dirt track sport compact. There rules state no two seaters and no variable valave timing so this thing is about the highest horsepower car your gonna find for that class
