one thing i think u should change about the piping is make the cooler to plenum pipe 2 pieces so its easyer to line up were you have to cut the hole. cheers for the comments guys!!!

hi comp and in second. That would be a vz monaro gear knob and boot look in the tech articals i did one for it. As for the car its off the road AGAIN due to a blown head gasket I HOPE, i just picked it up from the zorst shop took it for a wrap came on boost hard it blew a heater hose clean off and it sprayed on my foot i turned the car off strate away, i pulled over put the hose back on and filed it with water. started it up and it just spewed all the water out the radiator and pluems of steam came out the zorst. So in the end i had to get a tow truck home cause the cooler is in the way of the tow point on the front. GOD I HATE VL'S!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
