In Memory of old Larry "Kruz" Kruzick

[The Mad Cadder]

More to come

Say what you will about him ..but if not for him most likely none of us would be here

Personally I never had an issue with him.. He was actually very good with me.. Spent many hours talking and shootin the crap with him

But he did tell me about the people that would call him and just try to b.s stuff out of him..

Does this look like some of Larry's work? It was thought that it could be.. Hey Jay, remember this? Dave

I love the fact that gm sued him over the name "Cadillac Motorsports Development" , as it was not the image the company wanted for that division..
At he same time they made the WORST so called Cadillac's in history.. And just look at the JUNK they put the name on now :flamed:

CID... so far .... Now your scaring me ....My Bro still has a set of his race prepped heads in the boxes....

What really sucks is after all the BULLSHIT I had went through with the machine shops around here .I had got so fed up with fighting to have my Cadillac's
And thought I had gone as far with them as I could... I ended up selling off the car , enclosed trailer and TON of parts and gave up.. Its been 16 long years...But now Iam back to stay....

Never even dreamed of having aluminum heads or a Cadillac dedicated good flowing intake...

Gonna need a tow vehicle someday soon and nothing else will do but a old Caddy...Who knows my Dodge 4x4 is wayyyy under powered ..And Ive got the solution sitting in the garage...And Ive got some heads that would love a TURBO

Here's Larry on a 5.01 sec 1/8th mile pass

I loved that guy,most hated him.You gotta admit he was aarogant,so am I!!!For some reason he liked me but gave me hell just because I wanted his test log manifolds for my Eldo.He wanted me to cut the hood way back then and did sell me a cool reverse flared 1" phonelic quadrajet spacer for $100.Still got it.He was trying to get me to have tri-y headers built.I was just a young punk in a cool Eldoradver the 30 year span of my car,the drivers side exhaust manifold has been a huge issue.He had these 4" square tubes with exhaust ports he used for tests.He said they would not work for me.Like Marty said once if all you want is the fumes to go to the rear and you don't care about performance then ok.Larry just would not sell me one no matter how hard I tried.Fumes and racket really put a damper on a date.Speaking of a date.What ever happened to Rachel?I have a few posters...

Well 'Keeper, at least you finally admit it. You're an arrogant s.o.b. that's for sure, but if it weren't for people of you're persuasion, this world would be a dull place. It keeps others having something to gripe about. I do like like your steadfast faith in Cadillac El Dorados. Not too many are that great of fans of those. And, keeping the same one for several years is a very good statement to how well one likes a certain brand & model of car. Just keep in mind that not everyone else feels the same way. :twocents:
And yes, I too remember Larry Kruzick & that many weren't (& still aren't) great fans of his. He had a way of getting people pretty P.O,'ed at him. But, he did know a "thing or two about how to get a Caddy to run".

Re: In Menory of old Larry "Kruz" Kruzick

Nice...Dual Quads and a Magneto!!!! And there is the "Test Log" manifold I was begging to buy,would not flow crap but exhaust sure would go toward the back of the car without leaking and cracking!I bet if I got one back then it would still be working.

Eight nipples would be way too many...

:ill: I don't want to see that.

He said I was his first customer I don't know if that's right are not. But I still have the box he mail me something in with customer #0000001 lol rest in peace cadillac Larry
