Honestly. If you never had the report you would never have known….

 

Who cares. Just do a skid FFS. You on par to be my first ban victim. Once u teach me how to ban.

Weight plays an equally big a part as horsepower.

[cava454Moderator 93 VR BT1 View build HERE Member since: February 20, 2015 Posts: 2 390]

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

 

not cheap. But so worth it. Does it offer any weight reduction compared to stock?

Pretty interesting stuff that.

cav with your brake lines rather than using grommet and joiners behind why no use bulkhead fittings like i did sorry about the average pic couldnt find a better one

all over it. I seen some of the brake lines done at my engineeres. He used bulk head nuts. Sold me on it straight away. Looks so much cleaner/professional then the grommet.

 

I  excuse your shitty bay pick

I always had a feeling the box wasn’t what it was cracked up to be. Like I said, I paid less for it then you would to buy just a core. Which is now what I basically have.

A good mate of mine worked 10 + years in the trans industry for arguably one of the best in the business. PTC/ProMatic.

His steered me into somewhat of a direction on what I need to look out for. So I’m on the hunt.

I’ll give he headers a crack as is for the time being and see how I go. If not I’ll have to chop the collectors off and buy slip ons.

[cava454Moderator 93 VR BT1 View build HERE Member since: February 20, 2015 Posts: 2 390]

There is still a lot too them. Esp once u unpack all the clutches and pull out the valve body and gear set etc.

Gunna have to chase up some parts and see what it’s going to cost me to build it.

[cava454Moderator 93 VR BT1 View build HERE Member since: February 20, 2015 Posts: 2 390]

Bit of a disappointment today. Pulled the box apart.

I thought what the old owner told me was too good to be true. Considering it. Was dirt cheap.

Despite being freshened recently it’s not up to spec what I need. It’s originally from an Impala as evident by the extension housing as the output shaft.

Upon further notice the gear set is only a v6 item. The pump and the drum are re usable and in good nick however.

So gunna have to start looking into rebuilding the sucker. Deep down I knew this would be the case. Ahh well

Bit of alloy tube at bunnings. Cut to desired length

[cava454Moderator 93 VR BT1 View build HERE Member since: February 20, 2015 Posts: 2 390]

Ive got a mash hammer, oxy kit and a fuck load of duct tape.

I’ve got this. 

[cava454Moderator 93 VR BT1 View build HERE Member since: February 20, 2015 Posts: 2 390]

Yep. All welded no split etc. I may look into buying new collector and chopping these off, if fittment is a pita

[cava454Moderator 93 VR BT1 View build HERE Member since: February 20, 2015 Posts: 2 390]

Thumbs up for the help. Eagerly await the write up.

 

For or now I’m just getting everything in. Then I’ll rip out and paint. At this point I’ll ceramic coat and weld those bungs.

How did u split them into 4? The merge collector is welded.

Hopefully your CRS headers fit. I’ve got two mates doing a ls1 into a VL conversion using those size headers and one is having troubles fitting his drivers side and the other having troubles with his passenger side. In saying that, my front end has arrived from them. So I hope I don’t have any dramas fitting that as well.

 

i actaully straight swapped them with a bloke who couldn’t fit them in his VK. I’ve got to repair them slightly where old owner “modified” with his hammer.
