  • The 4-4-2 became a separate model from 1968 through 1971.[7] The wheelbase was 112 in (2,845 mm), and over 33,000 were sold for 1968. Despite the engine displacement staying at 400 CID, the engine was based on the new 455 V8's 4.25 stroke, with the bore decreased (to 3.87). Torque came at 3000-3200 rpm as opposed to the early 400's 3600 rpm peak, mostly due to a milder base cam grind. Car Life tested a 1968 4-4-2 with a 3.42:1 rear axle ratio and Hydramatic and attained 0-60 times of 7.0 seconds, and a quarter-mile time of 15.13 seconds at 92 mph (148 km/h). Top speed was reported as 115 mph (185 km/h). The base engine was still rated at 350 hp (261 kW), but only with the standard three-speed and optional four-speed; automatics were rated at 325 hp (242 kW). W-30s were rated again at 360 hp (268 kW). Car Life also tested a four-speed W-30 with a 4.33 rear end and recorded a 13.3 at 103.30 mph (166.2 km/h).
    All standard 1968 4-4-2 engines are painted a bronze-copper color

    I had a 68” Olds Cutlass S Coupe with a Chevy 427,456 rear end gears,4500 stall converter.She was a dark metallic Green,lighter green vinyl top,lighter green interior. I called her The Green Crunchy Frog! She chirped in every gear. I was a dumb ass and sold her back in the mid 80’s. I sure do miss her!

      Yeah the body wasn’t in the best shape but the engine and transmission had very low miles and oil changes before they were due.
      I just wanted the engine and transmission I didn’t care much about the rest of it.
      It’s not easy to find a 455 Rocket especially a 455 Super Rocket

      Yes that's a very rare engine and worth a lot of money. It's definitely a piece of history every engine collector is looking for.
