I brought the car about 3 years ago; it started life as a straight 6 auto. Blew the auto up an then put an Aussie 4 speed behind it. Blew two straight six�s up then decided l had to upgrade.
I then brought a VN Calais with a V6 auto an then started to fit the V6 in the VH. I didn�t want the auto so found a manual an got a custom fly wheel from Castlemain Rod shop.
Blew that V6 up an then decided l wanted more power. Brought a Turbo an Waste gate an away l went.
