Good to see you come over mate. Love your rig. I do recommend a cam into the 240’s to harness your inlet manifold and new exhaust. It will sound tuff and go like the clappers. Your 3.7 and 3000 stall will complement it perfectly.
Cheers.

Thanks fli. I remember your original Red VNSS from the early SC cruises way back in the day – still kept the same plates all these years. I used to have plates fry-304. I love this car – fantastic pickup and finished product. Well done.
Cheers.

Hi Pete,
Ruben here – the other VS Manta owner. I loved the summary you have done and have never truly grasped how much work you have put into your car – well done mate! A credit to you, especially since you have done most of it yourself. You are quite the backyard craftsman!
