    Wow ok real banging heads stuff. looks like a lot of that could be just supplying the data. Would not surprise me if there is a program that they punch it into and out spits go, no go based on measurement given. ?

  3. time to pull it down put it to the side and build a 5K..  It may just need some valve stem seals... But id expect big puff's of smoke on start up. 

    I had a set of twin J carbs once upon a time I still kick myself that I let them go. 

     

     

     

  4. iv just wire wheeled and brushed all the K frame / arms and rails of my 260C with PA10

    It wasn't that bad to do but i'll spew if I have to do it again in the next 5 years.

  5. I see POR15 being slagged all over the net they reckon it was good now they have changed it too much and it's not as good.... I bit the hook and decided to use PA10 (international paints)

    is it same bum different undies kinda thing ? 

     

     

  6. yea tons and tons of vally gaskets they are shit. Remember to use 3 bond in the corners with the new gaskets or they leak like fuck. 

     

    The other big thing I remember is bleeding the supercharged v6 after cooling system work is a must. 

    3 Bleed points in all. They arn't actually all that hard to bleed but it's important otherwise air lock. 

    They cant bleed if you just use the cap.

    weren't they bad for cracking heads?

    Spent 7 years at Holden during the period of VY. I don't recall any heads cracking. Thats not to say they didn't I just dont remember doing any.

     did do head gaskets from time to time. But you had to try pritty hard Iron heads and Block with the overheating. 

     

    ls1 had piston slap issues.. did a shit load of builds on them new slugs and rings. 

    hermmm...
