Dragging on? For a second I thought we were in my build thread

Correct Garry.

For reference, I’m running the factory sensor in that location and then my Autometer sensor is going into the drivers side head with a small conversion fitting.

Great to see people are still tinkering on the mighty 5L.

I was thinking of heading down the Flex Fuel path at some stage with my build, so good to know it is possible to ask the standard ECU to handle it. Cheers for posting that mate.

Personally, you’d need to introduce some copper aspects in other areas of the car to make it work 100%. Otherwise it will look a bit out of place just in the boot and under the car. Black would be my next option.

If you are starting to play around with braided lines, I’d suggest getting your hands on one of these:

AN Hose Assembly Tool

I bought mine off of Summit Racing a few years back and I never assemble braided lines without it now.

They have had another personal crack in the comments on their own post about the situation on the THR Developments FB page.

It’s a shame because this could of been handled 100x better by them.

I was just reading the post on Facebook and am in total amazement by the way the team at THR are handling themselves…

Thats a tidy looking engine bay mate. Great work!

…but if I did it again I would have taken the corners off the back off the sump and had them tig welded up so the K Frame stays original.

Exactly the path I went down. Granted I took a little bit more off than just the corners…

Looking good fella. +1 for the boxed lower control arms.

Are you going to paint the undercarriage at all?

IJ is building another racecar, and I can’t even finish a LS swap lol.

I do have a soft spot for the E36. So I’m super keen to follow the progress on the new build mate.

[RennoParticipant Adelaide, SAVN SS | VX SS View build HERE Member since: March 11, 2016 Posts: 119]

Last run? What have you got instore IJ?

[RennoParticipant Adelaide, SAVN SS | VX SS View build HERE Member since: March 11, 2016 Posts: 119]

Nice work Gary!

Nice pickup with the VH mate! The SS looks as good as ever too!

The belt slap would suggest that they kept the 3.08 gears in the rear for wheel speed.

Or they were just cheap lol

Having access to an arbor press helps a lot too.

Looks like the SSL Certificate expired yesterday Gary.
