Skidmarks Posted 25September, 2017 Report Share Posted 25September, 2017 Thanks Pork C It's just about back together. And you can't see the weave!!i'll try and post some as completed pics.Have taken the opportunity to do some interesting shite. Staged equal length headers. No mufflers - just 2 cats (I'm green ...) twin pipes exiting from the centre. Big reds up front under 15" wheels. Trick set up using Mitsubishi Evo hats and bespoke Brembo rotors. Have hooked up twin MSD spark units. Those 12 plugs need lots of fire!Rev limit now set to 8100 rpm. Next stop Bathurst.

Skidmarks Posted 25September, 2017 Report Share Posted 25September, 2017 Just watch out for certain Torana's having a 3rd go at totally destroying itself! Will do!!Lets just say that I'll be fairly vocal and completely undiplomatic at the drivers briefing in relation to that matter.

LeeM Posted 25September, 2017 Author Report Share Posted 25September, 2017 Surely that car won't come back form the dead in time for Bathurst? Or at all .

Skidmarks Posted 26September, 2017 Report Share Posted 26September, 2017 Thanks Chop Chop.Note the new pulley set up. When you're going 8000 + you don't want to be chucking a belt ...Oil cooler a test fit ...The stoppers are on. The hubs have increased front track a little as well. Should fill out the guards nicely. Not sure it'll munch any Torana's lap time but my aim is to be fastest from The Cutting to Forest Elbow. Nearly did it a couple of years back but some blow in by the name of Bowe rained on that parade.It's the little things that keep you coming back they say ...

Skidmarks Posted 26September, 2017 Report Share Posted 26September, 2017 I can't even begin to comprehend those kinda revs ?It's a beautiful thing.
