Slo-030. Healthy Dose Of Aussie Muscle Ahoy
As Luc said above. thats what the engine had on it when i bought it ( unbeknowns to me) so i slapped it back on and will get a good condish 4k head from UPI and get it machined so its dead flat and do the valve stem seals. Raven was sayin a while back that a 4k/3k head combo with an sc12 tuned right could put out a nice torque figure.

BA BAWM..wrong :bash: Yea, its the gear ratios which change the speed of which the wheels turn. The lower the ratio the lower the wheel speed therfore needing more revs to turn the wheels at the same speed. Get a higher ratio diff if you wanna drop your revs.

I forgot to mention that the friday that the rolla came off defect Luc came round with his shockers and leaf springs. SO the ol girl has got Gabriel shocks in the rear and some newer lowered leaves. rides so much better. i can believe that i put up with flips and shagged shocks for so long. gotta pay Luc for the shocks and line up another set of leaves. Next on the list is new brake pads and shoes and rear drums possibly. and new gabriels in the front then i can put the new lowered springs in the front. should handle like a factory fresh rolla. hopefully. Took it for a hills run last night and i have the JDMs back on due to clearing the defect. The sound of screaching tyres around corners sounded so good for some reason. :bash: Also, ive noticed while driving, when you put your foot down it seems to lag a little bit till the revs build up a bit then goes pretty good. Considering its just a stocko 4k with a 3k head it goes soo muich harder than the old one. I'm gonna need to put a resi in the exhaust soon and fix up the hole where the pipe meets the extractors as Luc cut it too short when he was using the system. i think that could help a little bit as it seems to lack a bit in the bottom end torque which could explain for the laginess explained above.

Jasons 1978 Ke30
IVe seen it personally and the bracket will make no difference as the original radiator support covers the same area. So unless jason cuts the radiator support having the radiator mount like that or not it wouldnt really make a difference. Id personally keep the radiator partially covered because there is such a thing as running an engine too cold. which is why I'm gonna get a thermo switch for my thermo as it hardly gets off the cold mark on the temp gauge.

Ugh, where do i start. The ke30 auto crossmember is in a different spot to the manual one. so welede a plat under the gearbox mount and to the crossmember. Snapped a bolt in the inspection plate on the back of the head so i packed it with gasket cement but it dint work when it was filled with coolant. So more gasket cement. still leaked. Some other gasket goo. still leaked. so pored some seal up in the radiator and it fixed it while it was running but the leak came back when it cooled. Just gonna top it up before i goto work and come home. Friction plate was on backwards :P Got told the protruding side when towads the flywheel :P pretty easy to unhook the box and fix it all up.
