I say leave well enough alone. Sure, the hp is low but the torque is probably roughly double that. Caddy's and most other luxo sedans use cams with short durations and wide LSA's so they run smooth. Yea, a Honda can make comparable power, but the Caddy's probably making that about 3500 rpms lower. HP doesnt get those barges moving. If you want to put money into performance, just buy another car. You can probably buy a cheap econocoupe for less than you can a motor swap. Worst case scenario, hit the motor with a 50 or 75 shot and enjoy pimpin that Caddy.
