The new home of Cad Company 8.2 Litre Performance Parts. This company is the originator of performance parts for the Cadillac 472/500/425 engine family, and has been in active operation since 1984. We can supply you with every single piece and part you'll ever need to hotrod, upgrade, overhaul, maintain, race and tow with these great motors. (*Well, almost every part).

Our regular telephone hours are from 8:00 am to 5:30 pm, Mountain Time. We suggest you obtain our catalog prior to calling with questions about what we sell, what it costs, etc., as there is a ton of information in our $5.00 catalog.

Our business revolves around parts support for the Cad 472/500/425 engines, building complete engines, and offering installation (swap) kits for just about any vehicle.

Currently, we only offer a few items beyond stock rebuild parts for the early Cadillac 331", 365", 390" & 429's, and we do not carry anything for the 4.1/4.5/4.9 Litre, or Northstar engines. However, we will be adding more parts soon.
