na that was the last one i built hypo79, i ended up putting a 2j and powerglide in it then sold it, instantly regretted it so started building this one, diff measures 1400 disc to disc, with 8” wide and 4” backspace. diff was narrowed so it shares wheels with my hq wagon, and before people jump on it yes the commodore is hq bolt pattern

im thinking of going with the pacemakers but im worried they will choke it up motor, it makes around 600 at fly and i hate buying shit twice   .. do pacemakers fit with the castle auto mounts?

hi guys just tuning in to give my experience with the castle auto 1 7/8 4-1 headers, im using there power mounts (look similar to tuff mount) and there starter swap, the drivers side header does not fit with out major firewall massaging, the headers look great on the ground but that doesnt mean too much if they dont do there intended purpose ie fit a vn with a ls2 motor lol

has anyone used the fbw throttle? im building a ls swapped vb and just found a complete cammed l76 for the right price .. is it just a matter of mounting the electric pedal and loom or can u run cable throttle body and change it in the ecu

neat build looks awesome, im doing a ls1 and glide into a vb myself, food for thought thou castle auto makes a nice set of 1 7/8 4-1 headers for the early ls swap .. il be using these on my build  thre expensive at $1500 but so far only ones ive found that do them that big .. i used there headers in my hq when i ls swapped it and couldnt be happier with the quality  just another option for u to consider
