Yes, BP Ultimate

No mileage test done but would be a worthy test. All carbs run very similar AFR at each of those speeds but it may not mean the same qty of fuel is being used

No plug checks,...

Turned up to my door packed in AFR heads box so looks like the guy bought some new heads and wanted to offload these. Came complete with valves, springs, retainers and collets but disassembled. If...

Test were done in D.

Shift recovery performance would be interesting over those carbs. Would it be the 650 that had the most violent reaction to fast throttle position change or would it be the...

I remember advertisements for them from memory in late 90’s early 2000’s US car mags. I don’t recall the fine details though.

I’ll get them cleaned and measured up for cc’s by my local head guy...

Picked these up from marketplace last week. Came with 2.02” intake valves and 1.6” exhaust. Don’t know the cc’s but mcsa at the pinch averages 2.0sq”. Ends of the heads have welsh plug like LS stuff...

I posted the below to another forum a few weeks ago and thought I would share here.

Nothing on for the weekend so I thought I’d bolt the Mickey Thompson’s on and throw the dragy on the dash and do...

Have you had your tension wrench validated/calibrated?

Thanks EH. I’ll have to look at other options when the time comes. I think M&H make a 245/55/15 that is 26”.

So today was a fizzier. Something unavoidable came up and I couldn’t get to Ballarat....

Definitely run earth to engine block (I reckon you’d be all over it anyway swampy).

I haven’t done battery in boot before but seen cars struggling to start that have and they have negative just...

Selling my Mighty Demon 850cfm annular.

Metering blocks fitted with threaded emulsion and lowered idle feed restrictions.

Only selling due to not needing two of these.

$600

Another excellent point Willie.

When people have already mentally assigned or 'spent' money on something like a future holiday overseas it can feel as though that money is unused and spare if the...

You have hit the nail on the head. Nostalgia. And now with the demise of Holden it’s nostalgia with perceived scarcity (like the death effect on the value of artist work, won’t be anymore art so...

It seems people are ‘investing’ in these things like property (house and land). More like a gamble.

Would this tribute (SLR 5000 with 383 sbc tribute by the way) sell for asking price if there is...

And a boat. And a caravan. Jet ski. Ride on mower. Jacuzzi. A tank full of petrol (wishful thinking).

In beer currency one pair of the plates is 6300 great northern slabs.

But hey, you could...

I don’t get it either. Maybe there is some group investing in them. The sale prices seem consistent enough that people know what they are doing. It’s not a one off, but over and over.

It’s the S/S I have. I think I will go the Street R next time as I will never use them cruising. Too expensive with a wear rating of 00 to just drive about. Happy to lose a few ‘cool’ points turning...

Is that the ETStreet S/S?

Edited this post because after rereading first post I had misinterpreted.

Pinion angles parallel, equal and opposite you’ll be fine with 5 degrees.

Thanks guys. I’ll start with the 90/10 front shocks and see how that goes. Next step 6cyl front springs if required. Thanks all for replying so far. I’ll report back.

Honestly, I don’t know. Were in the car when I bought it 25 yrs ago. I would think they are a v8 lowering spring. I was thinking the 90/10s need the 6cyl spring to take full advantage of the shock...
