lol yeh man coz LPG cools the intake like frozen styles im looking at cramming a 600x400x75mm cooler in behind the apron Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

MAD_ WOG your turbo will heat the hell out of the LPG charge. The liquid in the high pressure lines will freeze for sure if it was left un pressurised (as happens in the converter if there is no coolant running through to keep converter thaw) but once the liquid is realeased and boils, turning to a gas, it looses almost all of its thermal bennifits. Gas is ambient tempreture when comes out the mixer (or close enough to) The intercooler is just as important on an LPG car is petrol. Your thinking of fuels like Alcohol where the fuel stays at almost freezing point and absorbs heat from the air. Mix this with 150+ octane rating and you gave an almost un detanatible fuel. LPG is to be treated like petrol in regards to cooling air intake and detonation prevention. Billy is dead right going the cooler

also ive read that yes gas is high octane but it doesnt react as well as it should in regard to detonation compared to say a petrol with an octane content as high (around 105-108) but in liquid injection thats a different story either way im sticking with gas!

Hey bill go dirrect injection gas that would be front page material on SC hehehe Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

lol mate id love to! would be killer but for $6k... dont think itl be happening anytime soon im going to wait til it gets cheaper and use it on my next project, whatever that may be! Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Hey Bill i got an idea, go buy the biggest ****ing turbo u can and slap it on with a twin cam head... then we can be brothers, hahaha

sounds like a plan this is a rough idea of whats planned for the ol RB30. things might change, this is just what ive come up with after a few hours thought lol any suggestions would be greatly appreciated as this is all new to me im just wanting to build a super tuff bottom end - to handle 400rwkw+. i might not make that power, but will just be good to have a bit of room to play with Machining Block: Hone/bore 20thou � inch studs Chemical clean Deck block crank ground 10/10 All rotating assembly balanced Head: weld and tunnel bore Shave Acid dip Crack test � inch studs Port/polish Bottom end Parts King big end and mains bearings Weiecso forged pistons steel rings Forged rods ARP rod bolts ARP main studs High energy sump GTR oil pump ACL gaskets Head Cometic head gasket � inch head studs Ferrea titanium valves Crower HD valve springs Wade cam New guides, retainers, lifters, collets and valve seals Adjustable cam gear Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

heres the paint ill be using Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

That is a nice colour, will you be doing the two tone?

cheers man im real happy with it im tempted to make it a lil more pinkey/silvery but not sure. and i dont think ill be going 2 tone. thats just more chance for me to fk it up lol but ive got alot of time to make up my mind anyway

i wouldnt be shaving the head, anything you shave off will raise the compression!

yeh shoulda been more clear lol. was just gonna get it decked if it needed it. got bored so decided to take a few more teaser pics of the paint but in the sun. will look nuts! im loving that it looks different in different lights. i think i might toy with doing a coat or 2 of silver underneath so really bring out the color shift. and yes thats just been smeered on with my finger lol... i might take my grille to my mates work and spray that if time permits some pics i forgot...

looking the goods bill !! when can i come c it Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

lol when its presentable no turning back now lol started sanding all the edges and any imperfections in the paint (chips). looks like i wont have to do as much bogging or welding as first thought, the body is 99% dead straight! with only a tiny amount of surface rust on some chipped paint. the car will be moved to my mates house next weekend where we will being stripping it all. scary **** lol but should be nice once completed Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

internationals are forsale and will be sold by the end of the day hard times atm and need to pay some bills and rego all at once. im going to get some 4" and 8" ceptors made up for the fat n skinny look until i get more rims. also the guy i swapped the 18" rims too has changed his mind and doesnt want them anymore lol so paying him out and grabbing them back, so if worst comes to worst can just use the 2 non damaged ones on the front and fat ceptors on the rear. the car will be stripped this weekend anyway so will be riding on bald, dirty anything that i can find wheels

that paint looks awesome man.. cant wait to see it painted.. best of luck with it..

well fun day today sanding and stripping! this is how the VH started its day - sorry for the ****ty pics, didnt have a camera on me to live at its new home at my mates house... 10 minutes later... one of my supervisors lol have stripped all exterior items (except door handles), sanded the roof, pillars, front and rear sills, and half the drivers side, got rid of the bog (why it was ther i dont know) in the channels on the roof, grinded/sanded all rust and all tucked in to sleep! Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Ahahahaha, love the "10 minutes later" Billy! The old girls don't take much hey? That paint looks good enough to eat dude!
