372 5L ,-9, vn grp a,4bolt.came out of the blue clubby,G Force at Gates head(Newcastle)built it 10yrs ago,had 100k on it,getten a freshen up,bump couple of comp pts(good 98 now)spin it to bit over 8k,makes power all the way,mild & reliable,use to make 395rwhp all day,couple extra pts,fresh bearings,rings,lighter car should be alright
already had t56 conversion,koni,hd king springs,was 3.9 spool,now 3.7 m80 true trac,was std(on car from new) vt 2spots on 330mm with braided lines,after a lot of stuffing around,asking dumd questions (haha)went & bought Harrop monster kit,aussie gear,straight bolt up, surely can’t go wrong
check the back of that piston,close to 100k on that,clean as,motor is a real credit to G Force engineering
no dramas here bloke,i asked for opions,everyones aloud one,they won’t affect mine.These haven’t got the round corvette look lights(which I’m not a fan of).I wanted clear like the side lights.My mates are giving me heaps over them(who cares)see when it goes back together,factory looking car besides wheels(which I’m changing again)had car for nearly 20 yrs,this is second rebuild(bigger than 1st)or tidy up really, so change a few things here & there ,keep me interested .cheers for looking
ps. manta that thing of yours reads like a weapon,nice.
photo in shed, at night,their no were near as dark as that photo looks,their just not CLEAR ,paintings for kids with 22s(maybe thats a bit harsh)can’t put link to ebay or photo off there,they look a lot clearer there.anyway new std ones coming so i got choices for my moods, haha
work,idiots, bean counters in charge with nfi of what is actually involved .Not quoting right,then expecting profit,theres variables & fixed cost with everything ,cut fixed cost to win job aaarrrhhh
you get the idea,thanks for the vent,now to the fridge at once.
no worries supreme leader haha
lights new off fleabay altezzastans or what ever,advertised as clear was expecting like side light, but real smoked sort of.photo not so good,car pretty well legall,beside tint maybe a shade darker

on orange & blue bit theres an A on 1 & a B on the other 1,then theres an arrow in 1 corner of each 1,you’d think the lettering would be the right way up,A? bloody wires feel fun that way.my moneys on the letters wrong way up,but i’m hardly right.haha
got that sweet ,180 degrees is the stuff up i could have made.haha
anyone know which way plugs in dash go for instrument cluster?
