CommodoresPlus

Anyone in Adelaide going to the Extreme Auto Expo at Wayville showgrounds this weekend.  The Senator will be displayed as part of the Commodores and Classic Holden Enthusiasts car club inside.  I’m planning to be there Saturday avo, if you come along, say g’day.

^holy crap!!

Finally got some time on it.  Played around with the linkages and adjusting them longer means there is no way they can go over centre.  I have to admit I don’t think its the greatest design out of Jenvey that getting them out by a few turns means you are so close to disaster but anyways live and learn.  I think I will still design up some sort of…[Read more]

Mate thats looking so nice..

Nope, been using it for years, its so simple and it works!!

How to Download Facebook Video in your PC without any Software

Post the vid to YouTube then link to here.  That’s what I do .There’s a really simple hack to download any vid off Facebook off your PC.  Just change the http bit to m, Google is your friend 😀

That last shot showing the steering wheel in position looks awesome. At least you are honest enough to show welds less than super model good looking.  Even finger smear some sealant around it to make sure it’s all sealed. It is a race car after all!!  Great work as always .

Said every builder of car like this towards the end!!

320rwhp, by my rule of thumb calc means 320 fwkw, which is 430fwhp which is around what they are saying.  Imo peak HP is such an overstated number, its a pub pissing contest.  It’s all about the shape of the power curve to produce it on a streetcar.  Peaky engines are a bitch on the street.  It will spend most of its life around 3,000 rpm, whe…[Read more]

There’s a bit of work and thought has gone into that mate!!  Nice work.

Nice!

Yea I agree with Cav, actually for “bad” news thats probably good if that makes sense.  Prob something quite simple.

Wow, cheers for that, tbh I had no idea what sort of jiggerey pokery was in there…

Got it, I wonder how long before some of the aftermarket companies start to design up nice low profile alternatives.

Yea, I meant the “top” on the blower.  I just thought it would look better if you didn’t have those two hose coming out the front.  Has it been tried, just doesn’t fit?

Got told by someone once, rule of thumb is flywheel kW = rear wheel horsepower.  I am guessing it’s going to make say 350kW at the flywheel, so that equates to approx 350 rwHP.

Hey Cav, is it possible to put that top on the blower 180 degrees so the two hoses come out the back not the front?  Is it symmetrical?
