Shaz Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 Indeed. It's pretty much expected. Edit: In hindsight, that was actually a fucking stupid question. Captain Obvious apologises. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KKtrips Posted November 29, 2012 Author Share Posted November 29, 2012 Nah wasn't too bad - had 2 small holes (one ball point pen tip sized one and about 2/3rd the size of your small finger nail sized one) both on the drivers side. Reuben dealt to with some heavy duty windscreen sealant to slow down any issues, but to fix properly requires dashboard out so I don't set fire to shit..

Dell'orto Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 What about 5000 guys at a buck a piece? /spam I'd be quite interested to see the looks on the staunch Aussie veeeeaight types faces when this is complete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dell'orto Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Oh really? Didn't realise they were so popular in Aussie too! Makes life a bunch easier if there are off the shelf bits then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rookie Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Did you see, right at the top of the page is mounts for a LSx.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KKtrips Posted January 8, 2013 Author Share Posted January 8, 2013 It's simple mathematics vs size of wallet. Plus I'm a cruiser and a UZ will provide power for that in ample volumes. 1 x LSx @ $5000 = 3 x 1UZ at $1500 ea 1 x T5 @ $2000 = 3 x W5x at $600 ea Add in a 9" diff conversion which would be necessary for the extra power vs a 6cyl diff which should be adequate for UZ cruising. Then we are talking 10K for parts with barely a sweat broken. Honestly I would love to stick with GM and have stupid amounts of HP in an LSx but cost vs reality = not going to happen without a generous sponsor.
