SLO-030

Hahaha, so very true. Had a mate, turned 18 start of september. me and 2 other mates went round for drinks. he started out on vodka. was paro by 8pm and slumped over in the chair by 8:30. i swear he puked up like 200 litres. his parents were standing there pissing themselves laughing. now hes so cool cus he can drink and goes out and gets all these "chicks". God it shits me off.

HOLY JEBUS... looks like a very quick rolla in the making. keep us posted

That was the plan anyway :no2: Found the 4k i wanna buy, awaiting reply from seller :y: Edit: Seller just rang. Will be paying for the new 4k next week. Now the balls rolling, things are happening pretty quick now. will be buying the SC12 after i sort out payment for the 4k and a 5spd from a mate. I'm Fruckin pumped

Well the SC12 i'm getting doesn't have manifolds to begin with so it will be custom all the way :no2:

Doesnt really matter which way it points. Just as long as theres enough room for the carb. I'd be making new ones or modifying the original ones just to give it a cleaner apearance. Seeing as i can't run a IC with the drawthru setup there will be a bit of fancy pipework too :no2:

I'd take the throttle wheel (the wheel where the throttle cable wraps around) and find a way to attach it to the throttle shaft. that way you could use your original throttle cable.

Oh dear. Yea, just hope its the gearbox.

Yea man, Will be using a tensioner pulley as it will be a shit load easier to make the mounts solid rather than getting it to swing. Oh and there are a few pics in your supercharged 4k thread where the carb sits behind the headlight. I'll be fabbing the pipework to position the carb over the top of the SC to keep the induction path no longer than nessasary. Also to keep the whole deal between the chassis rails and hopefully give it a cleaner appearance.

Nah, i think i should be able to stick to a 6-700 dollar budget, seeing how i can do all the pipe work, pulleys, mounts, fuel system and installation myself. PLan will be to grab an A/C pulley off of a K engine, machine a larger pulley for the S/C and use the original electromagnetic clutch. Design and fabricate a cradle for the SC using the bolt holes already on it. Either modify an A/C mount or use one as a template for the bolt holes on the block and attach said S/C cradle. then make a mount for a tensioner pulley. Use a PCV carb plate as a template to make a flange to bolt to the intake manifold. Bend up 2" piping between SC and intake manifold. Make a flange to bolt the carb to and fab the piping to connect the carb to the input of the S/C. Mount the VL EFI pump in the boot. use the original fuel line (if big enough) connect the Fuel regulator. use the carbon canister to fuel tank line as a return line. or use the original fuel line as return from the reg if not big enough for supply. Fit microswitch to the carb throttle wheel to de activate S/C at idle. and activate just above idle.

Same thing:)

Ok, been working things out and have come up with my plan for the new engine :no2: 4K, trying to find one in as good cond as i can find (avoiding rebuild if possible) stock internals, head and manifolds (have got the 4-2-1 factory headers, leaving them on) SC12 Supercharger. Pulleyed for about 7psi-ish. Running a Strommberg carb in a drawthru setup. VL EFI fuel pump Fuel regulator 5spd ke70 gearbox. Got a price on a 4k $100. SC12 $200. KE70 5spd $100. In therory, i should be able to get it together and running for around the $600 mark. Let me know what you think. CHEERS Ryan

Window, basically dropped put of the tracks on an angle =S. Myles was the first person to see the rolla (besides Murderess who took me to pick it up) and YEP, Just had to break something :no2: Took it back to his place and made the little bugger fix it :y:

Wicked day for all, awesome weather for it. Many thanks to Budowski for organising it all. The 6 that i crusied home with via goolwa/stirling seemed to like my little tricks. everybody in the Crafers tunnel copped one and Red Rocket also copped one as he passed me lol. Bring on the next one :no2: P.S. Red Rocket, did you end up finding out what the red flashing light on the microtech was??

Holden 202 carb and EFI engines are EXACTLY the same. only the intake setups change and block series much like the K engine EFI gear.

Been polishing the wheels up lately. taking them off and doing one each night. get them looking shmick for the 2nd take for the Adelaide photoshoot. then i'll sus out another set of wheels and really give the JDM's a good going over. Sussing out another 4k to rebuild so i can whack an SC12 on the side. Working with DearmanKE on sorting things out for both our SC setups.

Too true. getting it running. even only roughly puts the biggest smile on your dial lol. and the first drive with the new donk mucho grins :dance:

I think, Alex has got a couple of A/C mounts. thats who I'm getting my mount from :dance:

I can weld :dance:

Yea, id rep that as a sticker.

hey, Nah, window hasnt been moved since you broke it :dance: Not much more i can take of the console, picture wise.

Still, itd take a fair bit of skill to to that.

Nope, straight swap as far as mounts, wiring and trans go. Some times the water pump has to be changed as sometimes the new motor has more heater hoses or has heater hoses in different spots. thats just about it. Make sure its a runner before the swap. Our friend Myles can tell you all about his swap. :dance:

Hey guys, been a while so i thought id update with the work ive done. Heres pics of mounting the stereo. Right Bracket, flipped and trimmed. Right Bracket. Hole slotted out. Stereo In. New parcel shelf. fabric still to be glued under rear screen.

Happy Birthday Bianca. All the best. See ya friday, you can get me alcohols (=

Oh a nice late one. will be there
