Cool bonnet idea. I was going to say just do something like this

 

but your idea is much neater.

Just re read your whole build, coming along really well. Good work. With your speakers, can you use stainless allen bolts with washers and nyloc nuts? Would look neater than the screws in the black wood. Of course if you carpet everything it doesn’t matter.

So, had a small fire in the engine bay on thursday night. Trans cooler line split, and lit up on the crossover pipe. So….that was a bit shitey. Not alot of damage, luckily.

Has been on the road for a couple of months now. Done a couple of hundred km’s. All good. Turns tyres pretty easy.

I was under the impression that vr/vs had the best clearance for wide rims. i had 255/35/20’s on the ss and scrubbed under hard acceleration on standard fe2 suspension on the inside and the gaurd. the tyre was fitted to an 8.5inch rim.

I chatted with him on messenger, and he said he has a guy who makes cv’s that will handle the horsepower my car is making to. What cv’s do you guys run? An LSX454 would surely destroy standard cv’s pretty quick. I googled and couldn’t find anything on early holden cv’s, plenty for vt onwards, g force , some stuff from summit and pedders, but nothing for earlier commodores. I want to run vn/vp rear end so i can get an extra 50mm of dish. Will also mini tub and do the harrop coilover kit, so will hopefully get some 10 inch Weld Draglites under there. Should be sweet.

Yeah was definately fake. I didn’t look at all the pics. Will just save and get the raceport next year. Proper Tial bov’s are a similar price to turbosmart anyway. Haven’t really scrimped anywhere else, no point in starting now.
