Common mistake, when I was into Supra’s I used to get 1J all the time… even though I owned and built 7M’s…

Its just the genuine Chev colour is called “Hugger Orange” just in case he wanted to go factoryish. Coming together great. When i decide to do mine might have to time if for a Collingrove trip so you can teach me the tricks

When i do them at work i use the engine brace up too and just undo the rack from column and the p/s hoses etc that are attached and let the k frame just hang down on the control arms, it doesnt take too long. I dont think you can do it taking any less off

Awesome, wasn’t sure if there was enough room doing it that way, Thanks!

I was going to drop the K Frame totally..

I’ve heard good stuff about it. Great economy and actually a power gain.

Thoughts?

All depends on the HP Goal, don’t think you can get injectors for much over 500rwhp but things may have changed, I used to run LPG in the Supra, the octane has dropped a bit over the years as well so not as good as it once was.

Today!

Low 20’s is much nicer to be out in the shed than 38c on Saturday..

Replacement Sump cleaned and ready to install, K frame dropped out of the way, I’ll go into town after lunch and get some Oil then it’s good to do the install.
