Rocked up in the afternoon with a few mates. *** clean workshop thats for sure! Brett, what power did yours make? I missed seeing it on the dyno. That VH was stupidly loud lol, made some alright numbers but. Dunno about that yellow VL muffing the burnout when he left lol...not as bad as the black ute but All in all was a nice cruise out there and killer weather, bring on summer. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Mine made 248rwkw mate. never had it on a dyno before but thought it would be around that mark. Surprised that it makes power to 6800-6900rpm but I only cross the line at about 6200-6300 so atleast I know there's a bit more in it if I can put some shorter gears in it. Anyone get any photo's of the cars there? Oh, also nice to go to a dyno day and not get starred down by the dyno operator or feel like you're not wanted there. Everyone felt welcome, brett was asking about peoples cars and having a chat inbetween runs, bbq and cans of soft drink... great effort.
