If it’s any help with your cam choice mate I’ve just gone from a 268 to a 276 and it’s much much nicer. You get a little lope but it’s still very streetable on stock compression.
I wouldn’t go any higher than a 276 on stock comp.
I feel for you, I’ve munched a cam lobe before and it’s a shit feeling, but you’ll love the 276.

Love it mate, love the cowl + colour.
Can’t wait to see how you go with it.

Since the last update, I’ve bought a set of Caprice fog lights and indicators, and a set of my favourite wheels, Simmons V5’s which I painted the same colour as the car.

Completely forgot about this thread, probably overdue for an update.
I still have the car, a few dailies have come and gone (sold my WM Caprice for a Navara) but the VR has stayed tucked in the shed.
It got treated to a new cam (H268) + lifters for Holden’s Dream Cruise for the end of manufacturing. I’ve also slowly cleaned it up a bit more and…[Read more]

I have a minor shake at idle that can mainly be felt through the steering w…[Read more]

someguy360 replied to the topic Recommend a muffler upgrade in the forum Exhaust 9 years, 6 months ago
I do actually have a flanged rear section, so with 2 bolts I can go between the rear muffler and straight pipe.
Unfortunately without the rear it’s very loud, I live in a pretty quiet area with elderly neighbors who have a very low tolerance for noise.
I really only need that few db more than what I currently have. Which has made me think I will…[Read more]
