  1. The Cheapest option is Usually One of the more expensive options up front! buy quality buy it once done
  2. Yeah! as these boys have said dont get the chingy wing dizzies. unless you like 50 degrees of advance timing and faulty running. have you considered a pertronix electronic ignition to convert you points dizzy into an electric?
  3. same here. wind over for 20 secs waiting for the gas. then boom!
  4. Well! its been Fucking ages since I last updated this. still no WOF no Reg no nothin!... such a shame... well not quite on the 2nd of May I got married. so I trailered this up to Lake Ohau for our wedding. where both this and my Brother inlaws HZ suffered from overheating problems so they were more just there for show than anything else for the rest of May I tried to figure out why it kept overheating turns out it was a BHG more on that later cheers guys
  5. that shot of your trans covered in grime made me giggle. When i yanked my engine and trans out the trimatic auto was covered in crud almost as bad as yours. but yours takes the cake!
  6. quality rebuilds (google it) can re curve dizzys bloody good service too I got my Bosch HEI checked over by them and my vac advance re furbed as well cost a little over a hundy
  7. Roller cams are awesome That is all
  8. Please strap a blower on this
  9. I use a trx420 at work ripper wee quads. Oodles of torques. Also do sweet drifties in the mud Nice project btw
  10. So wishing I had thrown a chev in my stato. So cheap to rebuild !
  11. Pretty sure you can buy ex-uk they still manufacture the body shells so a repro loom would be possible Mini spares.co.uk
  12. Much awesomeness
  13. HOT DANG! yes I do. I wish I could but yeah money is tight just paid for a wedding and starting a new job in June
  14. LSD!!! Nice I'm rolling a single pegged but am looking for a 3:36 ratio for sum up and go
  15. it varies I paid $120 for a sump and pickup 4 years ago and the pickup was shagged. Just gotta keep an eye out I suppose and jump on a deal where you dont feel like you are being ripped.
  16. Spot on kahmahl!
  17. For the diff a late 90's/00's chev blazer diff could be the go as the are quite narrow and disk braked plus they run a 3.45 ratio And Chevy/HQ stud pattern
  18. Giggity giggity! Looking forward to seeing this thing progress. so much lush. nothing beats rumbling along at 90kph with the 308 singing away 1950rpm while leaning back in your Luxuriosly Appointed couch. and the air chief blasting some tunes. Note: My 308 does this rpm at 90-100kph due to the 2.60:1 open diff (traumatic equiped) dunno what yours would do! whats your bango diff ratio?
  19. I'd love to drop a turbo 202 in this for shocks and horrors
  20. My god that's fucking lush Well done Rad
  21. There was a Rob Zombie song that mentioned a black stang churning 400hp. "Black sunshine" iirc
