hey guys just thought id post some pics of my work should be ready in two-three months.
it now has a 308 with a reworked vn efi top end the heads where shaved with maifold and port match,i am using a blueracer cam setup 228 duration stage three memcal,trimatic,nine inch with 4.11 gears .Still running the 13" tyres hope to change though soon.
the car has the hadfield strenghtening kit and steering relocation kit twin 2.5" exhaust no cross over,it has a full cage and everything else on the car is brand new or recod (except for the heater box)

anyone else run a similar setup or used that cam package befor what times do you think it would run? anyone done this conversion befor any imput would be great.

i would love too see it how bought a couple of pics and some specs for us all to salavate over?

gtrboyy · 20-06-2008, 03:43 PM

really..on mine the headers(vs s3 man) was too close to steering (manual tho') and the hq dipstick was a pain in the arse modifying to fit..should have tried the commodore one and marked the levels.

rlj308 · 21-06-2008, 08:48 AM

i have used a hadfield steering relocation kit and front end strengthening kit so miles of room on the drivers side not so much room on the other! i will post some pics soon.
