    Hey guys.. I'm currently rebuilding a LLT alloytec out of a 2010 VE sv6 and need a new crankshaft My question is, are the bottom end of all 3.6 alloytecs the same? Can I take a crankshaft from a VZ or earlier VE (thinking of price) and fit it in the LLT block?

    Mud and snow lol

    Anyone had any experience with mud and snow tyres? I got a bit enthusiastic with my daily rears and all I've got that will fit my wheels are some 205 wide m+s. I hear they'll be really fuckin slippery... Is this so? Will they be ok to run for a few days until can get some new RE001s on pay day
