I drive it as much as I get time to, usually only on the weekends. Only need to change the diff gears and I can cruise anywhere. I will be down to Melb for a calder park cruise as soon as I get the trans problems sorted out.. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

VL383; was that on the bottle?

Yep, running a 100 shot at the momment. Still runniung very fuel rich with 26 total total timing and cold ngk 8 plugs. I could get a lot more out of it but i'm just playing on the very safe side.

have you run it off the bottle yet? and whats the prob with your auto? ive heard of converters swelling from nos shots if you dont have the right one.. a mate of mine, his auto shat itself cos of that..

I have but not since I replaced the heads and cam etc, I should try it again soon. The Auto is brand new, it has a vavle body blockage. it's going back to hugo's next week to have it replaced. All should be good then...

i saw VL383 at heathcote **** it sounds tuff will be good when he gets the auto worked out. Let us know when ur coming down to melbourne luv to see the beast again.

^^ sexual vl383 u ever considered going vn top end?? she'll prob start to tip 300rwkw Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

that motor is ****in hot.

Yea the motor does look pretty good I should of taken a pic of it with the barry Grant carb on top.......yummmmm Quote: vl383 u ever considered going vn top end?? she'll prob start to tip 300rwkw Yea vl383, it will make a huge difference to your power output and power delivery. B cast heads struggle to flow 500hp, while vn heads flow about 460hp from factory and only cost $500 second hand. With the right gear, mine now flow about 570hp, some guys have managed even more from them So yea, they definately are worth it. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

I will change them one day but I was just trying to find the limits of what I could get out of the motor with HQ style heads and the Rochester Quadrajet carby. People get a surprise when the see what the car can do with the motor still looking very stock. The other bonus is that I can still run all the original pollution gear and keep the local authorities happy.

wont be keeping the EPA happy by the looks of that avatar Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Ahhhh my my foot slipped officer and that road was very very slippery. I swear, I put my foot on the break to try and stop but I forgot to turn the line locker off. I got all confused and it started going sideways, then this light come on so I hit second gear to try and slow the car down.

lol i said the clutch was playin up when the coppers pulled in front of me while i was still doing a burnout in the maccas car park lolol
