4AG_Addict Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 Nice. Was admiring this when it was on trademe. Did you get the original 16 Valve motor with it? Any plans to switch back or sticking with the 20 Valve? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sungai Sungai Posted January 9, 2022 Author Share Posted January 9, 2022 yeah it came with the bluetop and original t50, along with pretty much every factory part to return it to stock; and the engine bay has had no drilling or cutting and all the aftermarket parts have been fitted with brackets attached to original mounting locations the plan is to rebuild and mildly work the factory bluetop, or if its too far gone ill find a smallport redtop. either way definitely 16v. Im somewhat predicting that i may go down the whole expensive "period correct" rabbit hole with this car but we will see! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sungai Sungai Posted October 3, 2022 Author Share Posted October 3, 2022 Thanks @Roman! And thanks again for all your advice on tuning, i have an exhaust gasket on the way that will fix my leak and give me that wideband accuracy im looking for and i will be straight back into it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roman Posted December 10, 2022 Share Posted December 10, 2022 After so many hardships etc with this car, to come to your first OS drag day and take out DYO was just bloody fantastic. When following the car to the pub it looked soooooo good on those wheels! Love it. A++ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
