  1. sure sure nick......your car may be the loudest atm......but not for long....:D i was also thinking about going as a kinda line of cars.....through and underneath the foyer (if they have one), maybe teddy could be in the last car or something.
  2. Yeah Nick thats a great idea!!!!!......teddy you just gootta make sure that they are within a 1km radius, they should hear us coming.....:D :D btw they sound like real tossers.....
  3. hey......who said anything about being shitboxes...... grrrrr :D hehehehe
  4. i'll loan you my services for the night.....not too shabby corolla.....be then i will have the new engine in too.......big lumpy cam in the bastard....that'll show em'. prolly have the windows tinted by then too..... red dwarf......mmmmmmmmmm......(drools)
  5. My brother just gave me this weber to put on my new engine and i can't for the life of me find anything on the internet that looks remotely like this weber....it weighs in at about 2kg :D and it has 2 35mm throats..can anyone tell me what they think it looks like???....its a little dirty atm but i'm going to clean it up before i chuck it on...... Ta xany
  6. not sure about the rods....prolly just use the old ones....
  7. prolly just the reground cam, conrods and all the shit that was on the engine when i got it......oil pickup, fuel pump.....all that kinda stuff.....
  8. i had a quick look at the ACL catalogue and realised they don't make any 7k pistons....???.....i was told today that my 5K block and crank is rooted and i need some others......i guy has offered a standard 5k block and crank for $200.....thinking about buying that....also my brother has told me that the engine rebuilder is regrinding my cam to a 450 thou lift, with lots of overlap.....those valve springs on that head should be good up to at least 8000 rpm.....also getting everything balanced and buying some ACL duralite shallow dish pistons..... crossing fingers that nothing else goes wrong.......
  9. i might be there...depending on what time i finish work....i work from 3pm till whenever we finish.....so i hope too see yous there
  10. hence why i think my compression will be low if i use these pistons..... i'll give the carbies a miss for a bit and see how this weber goes...
  11. gees......thanks for the info....i would really like to pick your brains over an instant message convo.....i have looked at that tosco manual, its a good read...i'm going to get the crankshaft balanced and linished, also the cam will be reground.....to what i'm not sure yet. i will also be boring the block out to 40 thou over, however the pistons i have at the moment are majorly dished and i'm not sure about compression issues. i will be prolly be putting a weber on it for now, until i can get my hands on some twins. these are the pistons i prolly will be using unless i can get different ones. any other things that you can think of that i might have trouble with....?? again.....thanks for the info....
  12. i think the k-line valve guides i've just had put in would be better than 4k ones. also i have a bigport inlet manifold so no dramas there. my measurements are prolly wrong........the chambers have been polished and the extractors i'm putting on will suffice. my camera flash was too bright for the glistening head....thats why they look dull. also i don't really want to have my car idle at 1500rpm because i've got a really high lift and duration....thats why i left them. thanks for the input though.
  13. Now that i've got your attention, i got my head back on friday time for some PICCYS Some specs.. 32mm intake ports, 25mm exhuast, 37mm intake valves, 30mm exhaust.... ENJOY!!!! :D
  14. i'd say if you want to keep it as a parts car....it will decay more.....nows the time to sell the stuff off it and use the money on the white one....:D....hell i have been selling stuff for the last few years....and i've still got a heap of stuff...u keep collecting it.....
  15. gday fellas......i need to get some info on gearbox conversions for behind the k motors.....any help would be great.....
  16. ahhh....ok.....couldn't remember that....
  17. congrats man....!!!!!!
  18. i have simex ones on the front of mine and olympic on the back ( the back ones were on it when i got the car)....i wouldnt buy olympic for the simple fact that they kinda don't grip in the wet too well.....however i can't fault the simex ones.
  19. correct demuire.....they are stud and nut.....with the long shaft.....
