Rocker covers are from Bliss Custom Machining
http://blisscustommachining.com.au/category_3/ROCKER-COVERS.htm
Quality looks to be pretty good. There were no issues with fitment and no leaks as of yet.
The covers dont come with coil mounts but they are sold by Bliss as well. -

Cheers. It drives pretty well. A bit firm on the bigger rims/suspension now, but only really noticeable on shitty roads. It goes pretty well too, much better than the standard 5 litre. I’m happy with it so far!

So a bits changed since my last post on here. Ls conversion is now complete. Also sold off the old wheels and fitted some new ones, rear suspension was lowered and guards rolled, and a Haltech dash installed.
Some pics:
New carpet is on the way, and my constant scouring of Ebay and Gumtree scored me a Momo steering wheel and some decent…[Read more]

I actually dont think there is any advantage, asides from the fact that its a local kit and uses the original tensioner. It’s just another option where pretty much everything is supplied as a kit.
My original concerns were that asides from Sands Vs I couldn’t find anyone else that had used the Groves kit, and I wasnt entirely certain what…[Read more]

Some further info for those that might be interested regarding A/C kits for Ls engine swaps.
This guy has developed a local kit (was actually recommended by Muscle Garage):
Spoke with him last week…[Read more]

Cheers Heron, thanks for the response. I like your way of thinking, I’ll add the Corvette filter to the (ever growing) parts list.
Nice car by the way, I enjoyed reading through your build last night.

Marc replied to the topic Marc's VN SS in the forum VN – VP – VR – VS 4 years, 11 months ago
Thanks for the replies gents, much appreciated.
Any thoughts on fuel pressure regulators? I read through Heron’s build last night and see he went for the Corvette filter (as did you VRSenator i think?) over a standalone regulator.
Any reason why you guys went that way instead of a standalone? I’m considering getting some adapters so I can mount…[Read more]

Thanks very much for the response VRSenator. I’ll look to order the Muscle Garage Kit shortly.
I noticed on your build you used a swivel thermostat housing (I’m sure it was yours..I’ve been looking over a few builds). As i intend to use the standard VN radiator (just fitted a new one due to multiple leaks), would a swivel housing be necessary?…[Read more]

So… still a lurker, not much of a poster. The VN is now for the most part complete:
However, an LS conversion is now in the parts acquisition stage. I’ve managed to get hold of a low kilometre LS1 and 4l60E transmission combo which is waiting at a mates workshop. I’ll source all the parts, remove the old engine and transmission and send the…[Read more]

Wow. Kinda makes me embarrassed to have my dodgy looking VN on here!

Hey mate, sweet ute, sorry to see it damaged by some asshole!
I actually work in the Insurance industry and deal quite a bit will claims like this. If you run into any headaches, feel free to send me a PM and I’ll see if I can offer any assistance.

Yeah, it is nice to see them restored instead of being neglected like this one was when I got it. I’m still finding dodgy work done by previous owners!
I fitted up the Wilwoods, but I dont know a great deal about them as I bought them second-hand from a guy who had previously fitted them to a VN (it was that candy-apple red VN with a t…[Read more]

Hello Everyone.
Long time lurker, first time poster.
Here’s some pics of my VN SS I’ve been slowly restoring/modifying over the last few years.
When I bought it, it didn’t run, the body was straight but the paintwork peeling, various electrics didn’t work, interior was out of a VT for some reason, had a crappy aftermarket steering wheel…[Read more]
