Its very true with your comment bullitljv8. I hate reading through magazines and find that they don't do any of the work themselves because they're too rich and just get other people to do it. To me they aren't true car lovers, they're just sheep that want to fit in with the crowd.
Rorym, The modifications you need to do to put a holden 6 in it, you my aswell put a V8 in, you have to cut all of the same things out of it to fit both. I've been looking for brabham badges to put back on it, as they were stolen. So if you know of any please let me know.
Take care guys, Ads

SO.....
I purchased a new GM crate block, sent it to get bored yesterday and will get it back tomorrow for bottom end assembly. The block will then go back along with the internalls to be balanced and blue printed, and I will then file fit the rings and start final assembly.
Oh, also I received my Aussie Desert cooler today, fits perfectly between the chassis rails. I used a HQ size radiator, but in Aluminium pro race series, its over 3 inches thick and has the chev logo embossed in the top, should look sweet, well, for a 'burnout car', haha.
Catcha guys!

Bottom end built, all forged 10.5 compression
All done, now for the trans
4200rpm stall
Going in!
All fits well, except had to modify the steering again and get a rocker cover modified...
Wheelie bars located in place

May get a hilborn after also, but not shot gun as they are $700.00 for the polished one that I specifically want. Question! Is it illegal to use braided line throughout my whole car? or do I have to use hard line underneath the car at least?
Any herlp guys would be great!
