    L

    Dumb ass lS owner question here, but can you go 383 with the Holden block? Or is 355 pretty much it before you go aftermarket billet block?

     

    396 with overbore gets you 402ci in standard block.

     

    365-370ci is the sweet spot.  :nice:

    Fresh 304. 284 and your 4088 will make 300-320 all day long.

    Something tells me it a fake.

    Poor man pays twice. Why not wait and save then run the “unknown”

    If I’ve got to post any photos big or small (generally what I’ve taken on my iPhone) I just use tapatalk. It’s 100000x easier and they load in full view. No need to click on them and be redirected.

    Yea my water pump pulley drove me so took the thing off and put some engine enamel on worked well i think. Also on topic of things that look good the power steering bracket and alternator brackets that lowe fab do look sweet those are on my list of things to get. There are some bullet ones on ebay too i like but ebay can be a bit sometimes?? Especially when brackets are like $250 $275 or whatever they are??

    Buy Lowe before bullet. Bullet are rubbish.

     

    But be prepared to wait. Lowe is very slow

    Remove all bolts and use sealant. And just get them tight by hand. I don’t torque to a specific spec

    ^Agreed. Mick at Tuners Edge is your man. Good to see some progress happening! When will we see some Alumastars about?

    That all depends when your bringing my wheels past  :nice:

    progress is slowly happening. Trying to get the painter down to suss bay and give me a quote.

    Maybe while I’m fitting. The wheels u can jot down some notes  :yes:

    Have you tried re-torquing the intake bolts?

    another good point. One by one remove, add Paste to thread and re torque.

    Im pretty sure early heads the intake manifold bolts break into the water ports.

    Try putting sealant on the bolts in the area where it’s leaking.

    Someone would be stupid not to pay the $30 for a custom bolt in product.

     

    BUT. People are butchers. Not many will go to this detail to getting a ratchet setup or any shifter setup to look this good.

    I think the code only applied to Australian eBay items.

     

    Withthe currency conversion + tax + freight is it much cheaper from us?
