On another note Cav, who do you recommend for torque converters?

I will need one made shortly. Probably around 4k stall.

Funny I have a single 3000 cfm Spal on mine, unshrouded, doesn’t get hot at all.

I love it when i get things in the post.

I also picked up all my parts from powder coating and got my headers back from ceramic coating.

Excellent choice in converter mate. I think you will be very happy.

Slowly getting my engine finished ready for the new bay when it gets back from the spray painter.

Also picked up my new shifter which a nice piece of kit.

How you been travelling with this? Any updates at all?

[HDN05LParticipant Canberra ACTVS Olympic Edt 383 stroker Ute View build HERE Member since: March 2, 2015 Posts: 289]

Hey Sotta, biggest update is i just completed my 4 car garage and all that comes with that. So i can finally get back into the ute next month.

Small amount of wiring and it will be time to finally fire it up for the first time with the stroker. I will keep the updates coming.

Good to hear. Looking forward to seeing how this turns out. Should be killer!

Happiness is a new garage!!

[HDN05LParticipant Canberra ACTVS Olympic Edt 383 stroker Ute View build HERE Member since: March 2, 2015 Posts: 289]

Thought i would put up some pics of my new garage. Bloody big job when you do it all yourself.

The new garage is only 5 m2 smaller than our 3 bedroom house!!

So glad its almost complete, just need the new hoist to go in and put things away and its full steam ahead again on the Ute.

Got the new gearbox ready as well. New filter and seal. Just transferring parts from the old box and she will be ready to go back in.
