Also included were special black and orange decals, blacked out grille and yellow-painted 7″ wide Super Stock II wheels without trim rings, G70×14″ blackwall tires. The engine was the L74 350 CID 310 HP V-8 engine with OAI.

The Cutlass Supreme SX option was available on  the Cutlass Supreme notchback coupe and Convertible. It consisted of a standard Cutlass Supreme model with a 455 CID V-8 and dual exhausts utilizing the 442 rear bumper outlets. HD suspension was optional, as was most of the 442 equipment, but NOT the OAI hood. In February of 1970 the 455 CID 365 HP 442 engine would replace the 320 HP 2-barrel version. See the SX Option sell sheet HERE.

The Olds Cutlass and 442 were both available with the Indy Pace Car option. The package was primarily a decal package available on both the 442 and the Cutlass Supreme convertible. Many of the decals were not applied at the factory but were to be applied by the dealership when the car was prepped for the customer, most notably the large “Official Pace Car” door decals.  See the part numbers, paint and decal placement instructions HERE.
