What made you buy that? Wouldn’t of been cheap
They are fair chunky looking. Not subtle.

You need a VE bracket and alternator to suit your pulley offset.
You will also need to buy a blower tensioner bracket and the upper and lower tensioner pulley.
Also need some sort of idler to fill power steering pump void.
Get it all from HSV direct.

Nah I don’t mate. My lid just clear the group a scoop and TB just clears the bonnet skin.

More so in retro spec to ground clearance.
I don’t know if you have mentioned it or not but what’s your engineer say? I’m shocked if they say yes.
Out of curiosity. What’s a CTSV hat worth? Is the cost difference that much? Bear in mind you could sell you brand new zl1 lid for decent money. ESP to someone in USA. Those guys are always looking…[Read more]

50mm will make headers a nightmare IMO. Collectors will hang heaps low.
will require brake lines etc to be modified. So keep that in mind. It would open a can of worms

Easier to access it that way. Facing the other way is a pain as cage is on way. This way I can do it from folding down rear seat.

Running the lines under the car is a prick of a job, especially with no hoist. Trying to pick locations for everything is a pain as well, how you’ll run the exhaust will impact where to mount the lines, filters etc. [/quote
Yeah I did it all on my back. Suprisingly I nailed it first go all in one length with hard drawn. Just need to flare each en…[Read more]

Fuel system was always going to be stainless. Has to be. Fingers crossed engineer likes it.
Under the car will be the next battle. There will be a lot going on with 2x filters and the Flex sensor

Bloody hell. That’s a BIG spacer.
I wouldn’t go bigger then 25mm personally. Change the blower hat. Or Mill the top of the one you have.

Highly unlikely.
My mate with a VP used 25mm spacers and a ctsv hat. It JUST fit.
I have a feeling you have even less clearance.

You will actually find they are better. Whilst the don’t have as good a brick, they are capable of flowing more air.

It’s surprising how much stiffer the cage makes the car.

It’s 1/2inch .9 wall stainless.
I still have to add all the bulkhead fittings and flare. But I’ll make them up and polish before I flare.

Very good info in there IJ. I’ve been watching Justin for years as he has very simple well thought out tutorials. Particularly his earlier seasons when he was still working out of his garage.
Those with a keen eye will spot the viewer with a drinking problem that requested this FastFab episode…
