Bugger all of that I want to go back and get all of my hatchback body shells, and the panels all dunked in an Ecoat tank and electrostatically primed. I don't care if GMH saved $100 by using less paint and less primer I am sick of rust and hate rust with the same nasty passion that kiwi's chase sheep around their bedroom. :stirpot:

I thought the shroud was only on 5L with air but just checked the parts book and it says V8 so that includes the 4.2 as well. Will need to zoom in on the carby

Was a bit hard to see on the phone but on the big screen I think I can see a dipstick for the auto. Is that it, and definitely looks like a quady carby.
