VN aero and a VS calais both 5 speed
well im buying a second hand engine off a mate so i can still drive my vs while build up an engine for it, the only thing wrong with the other engine is it has a dropped valve and he thinks the piston would be screwed but thats not an issue as im going to buy a rebuild kit, ive thought about getting a stroker kit but there isnt really many people around that do head machining etc plus its not cheap, im on my p's and cant drive a v8 for 2 and a half years so i want to get the best power for the money im willing to spend somewhere between $1000 and $2000, express your ideas please.

p.s it is an ecotec yes

P plates = no performance modifications. I suggest keep it looking clean and keep it well maintained and learn how to handle the car as it is no need to make it go faster. That can wait til you get your opens

no need to get defensive kid.

Who you calling kid, MR car driver extraordinaire?

If your such a good driver, why don't you be mature and follow the laws that have been made to protect inexperienced drivers like yourself from wrapping yourself around a tree?

Otherwise, I hope you get caught. We don't need cocky P Platers on the road.
