Next time I’m there i’ll take a few more photos.

Oh, you saw that? haha.

Nothing beats a good quality brass radiator. I’m really not a fan of the alloy radiators.

I actually received it today. Its damn heavy haha, but build quality is second to none. Literally. Speak to Rick there and he will sort you out!

It was the neatest way to…[Read more]

Alot of progress has happened over the weekend by my good friends Matt and Scott.

Scott put the engine loom in and ran the headlight loom on the inside of the guard.

Matt put in the fuel lines. braid from motor to bulk head, then hardline to the backdoors.

He also put in the and mounted the transmission cooler and lines. Also put a heat sleeve…[Read more]

Cheers man. Its nearly there!

He is in Carrum Downs, Victoria.

I can pm you his number if interested?

We built the diff around the wheels.

Thank you 

Seriously man, in those pics it looks like a die cast car.

Freaking killer!

Absloute credit to you.

Are you loving the new tune?

^Agreed. Mick at Tuners Edge is your man.

Good to see some progress happening!

When will we see some Alumastars about? 

Haha i’m on the wrong side of Melbourne for that nonsense!

Came up killer man. I’m hanging for a steer!

Like you wouldn’t believe man. Hanging is an understatement!

Vl made it home Friday night.

Has to go to a friends place to get wiring, fuel lines and brake lines then its ready to start!

we just moved it 10mm on the diff. its all sweet now.

They are pacies man 

They have been tinkered with.

Came out of a red vk ‘fstgmh’

Ahh wicked. Should still work a treat man.

Haha my mate Cam showed me that. Couldn’t believe after what they did to those pipes it was only like 1hp difference

Same as standard. They really help when trying to fit a big tyre.

With standard control arms i wouldnt have had a hope getting those 255’s under.

Nah. Because of where the spring hanger is located, the springs need to be 2.5inch lower. So expect to get out the grinder haha.

They are great, because the give you full adjustment on where you want the diff to sit and helps with the pinion angle.

Adjustable pan hard rod does wonders as well.

Pacemaker tri-y’s i believe

Looks phat back on the ground again  

forgot to put another pic up.

the internals of the diff

Ran into our first problem. Supposedly happens to all early girls with this conversion. The nut and shaft hit on the header.

It was fixed up pulling the motor up on the tuff mounts. shaving the bolt to the nut and hitting the header in to make it fit my millimeters.

apparently its just what you have to

It wouldn’t have worked doing it that way on this. The caliper needs to be central with the rotor. if i did what you suggested it be more in favour of the outside pistons if you get what i mean.

Supposedly all these willwood kits are like that. They are just 1 universal fit. and you have to mod it to suit.

The threads are about 3mm from the…[Read more]

Everything is pretty much buttoned up and ready for braid and wiring!
