Bit of an update,car ran 11.91@119.68mph,1.99sec 60 foot in september last year,then late last year broke the cam gear off bending some valves.I've sold the Gen TT kit & got a new engine & turbo set up from a workshop car in South Australia. Engine is still 346cube,sleeved block,lunati crank,rods & pistons,241 casting heads plenty of time spent on them though,double valve springs,decent cam,turbos are Garrett GT3076's,Tial 38mm wastegates,made 505rwkw on 12psi,in the manual VY SS. Will be replacing all the blue silicon hose with braided hose Purchased the complete rear end out of the Castle Hill twin turbo 8sec drag car. specs full spool 3.0 diff custom 2 piece tail shaft BMR 31 spline billet driveshafts and stubs arp 1/2" wheel studs custom 15x8 pro star wheels 28x9 slicks all new bushes including camber/caster kits custom valved 9 way adjustable bilstein shocks custom springs this rear end helped their car run 8.98@160mph,they are tubbing the car now.
