if there was an issue with oil pressure it would be there constantly, and changing from D to R wouldnt cause oil pressure to dip, ide say its a wiring issue but if your worried, u can get an oil presure tester, all u need to do is remove the oil pressure switch screw the pressure guage in and...

it is possible, but u willl need the s/c heads manifold, fuel rails injectors, pullies, harmonic balancer, computer it will work its been done before, and ive seen stock ecotec pistons handle a fair amount of boost, it just going to be hard to find all the bits especially all together

would you like a shovel?

not sure how u got the vx box in there without grinding the bellhousing to accomodate the way the vs drivers side exhaust hugs the box, meh who cares either way it works

i havnt read all of the replys sorry if its been said but the boss motors arnt that flash yeah they seem to make a lot of power for the capacity but thru work and alot of other shops ive talk to there must be alot of dodgy bottom end bearings made when they were getting built as ive seen and...

ok a vs box can go into a vr with a simple swap of the extension housing if the speedo is different, and as the wiring harness in the car itself dosent have the extra wire for the 3-2 downshift solenoid in the vs box it dosent have a problem, and the 3-2 downshift solenoid is only there for a...

sorry i wasnt suggesting you put all that into a box i was just replying to trikkben about saying electronic boxes are junk, but yes u can easily put your vs box into the vr the only thing that needs changing is the extension housing as early vrs had the old speedo, and everything will bolt up...

all depends on how u build the box trikkben and wat you use, also i dont think he is wishing to stick hundreds of horse power thru it if your really after a kick ass shifting box, buy all the Superior - super shift billet servos, for 2nd apply and 3-4 2.5/8" wide band, sonnax boost valve for...

will work fine as said above the only difference is the the harness plug, being vs having the 13 and vr having 12 the extra pin is for 3-2 down shift solenoid which vr box didnt have, and as your harness for vr dosent have the extra wire in it it dosent even know its there so wont hurt abit, and...

im going to be changing the lifters in my l67 in the next few weeks, and after having a look at your website u seems to have everything i need, except the hydraulic lifters do you stock these at all and if so how much? also i couldnt find supercharger to manifold gasket either. im still...

nothing on the cost of these things yet?

does it make little beeping tune like when ur low on fuel, ? or do any other the other warning lights come on, ?

u shouldnt really do any damage to the input shaft u can break the pump easily thou :) just make sure before u put it on jacks to bolt in, that the spigot/pilot (little knob) on middle of converter lined up flush with the mating surface of the belhousing, (only works on holden 6's thou) and lube...

price? and will i need injector spacers or will i have to get a billet fuel rail? does it come with gaskets or any other mounting hardware?

The band is adjustable in a 4l60, its just not an easy thing to do u need to buy a longer pin for the servo/piston and grind the tip down to set band clearence, but the only reason you ever need to do that if if your useing an aftermarket band and want to shorten the travel distance of the...

i wouldnt waste your time buying a kit but the time u pay freight and any other taxes if there are any it will cost u the same as a rebuild kit they will use at the shop, and depending on wat else is damaged in the trans u may need to spend more anyway,

my guess is uve got a split ??? is your temp guage making its way up to hot, that would possibly put your engine light on, and putting tape on a radiator isnt really going to work it mat only be about 15 psi in there but the water and heat will wreck the tape real quick if its not to big of a...

2nd gear is applyed by the band in a 4l60 and once they go its gone, no ammount of oil and filters will save it, generally once all the friction material burns and wears off from the slipping the piston in your servo starts to run out of travel because of the return spring no longer grabs the...

What exactly was burnt or destroyed do you have any valve upgrades other then the stock ones in there?, i would suggest u get then valve changed in the pump that control line pressure, the stock one when go pedal jumped on only slowly increases line pressure, where as there is an after market...

with your idle problem, its more then likely your idle stepper motor, they get carbon build up and get sticky rip it out clean it up and it will be god as new again had the same problem

the only need for holding the revs higher is so the idle stepper motor can readjust itself as some cars tend to keep stalling or idleing so low it stalls when put in gear so as long as u either do the batt terminal off and drain residual power from computer with either pumping break pedal for a...

im with strgas, replace the entire place on rear of engine, at our workshop we no longer just replace the seal it self as the gasket behind the plate that seals up oil and water galleries tends to crack near the edges of one side towards the bottom and leaks from one of the 10mm bolt holes if u...

do as savage says as it is the easier/cheaper option and it could save u money, but i am a mechanic/transmission rebuilder by trade, and more ofen then not with the ammount of k's most vt/vx models would have on them it going to be something a little more then a bit low on oil and vt onwards has...

depends on the sort of noise ur getting, is it a normal lifter noise tap, or a duller knocky type tap like the case hardening on the cam lobe has worn off, as we had a 01 caprice with 120k on the clock come into work after the owner replace every external moving part on the engine and couldnt...

if its slipping in 2nd, you have either burnt your band an its no longer grabbing the drub or u have snapped it theres no band aid fix, the box has to come out u can get a cheap job where they wil just replace soft parts like frictions in both drums and engine braking frictions and band but...

it depends how where ur oil is getting into the cyclinder from, it may not be comming thru the valve stem seals at all, does it blow any smoke at all like when u back off throttle at a higher rpm, if auto lock it into 2nd or a lower gear to get it up to about 2-4krpm to cause vaccum for it to...

if u leave the ignition on reds for a couple minutes and then try it then if it starts first go, replace the relays for fuel pump, happened on a vx at work the other week sometime u could crank the car for ages nothign would happen but leave the ignition on and it would start first time, i...

also are u running any mods like pulley up grade, and stuff like that cause i have found with a couple l67 with upping boost, some of them had a engine come on under hard accel and when i chucked our scanner on them they said engine lean under load also happened with mine running 13 psi boost...

you can get a nice lumpy cam for the v6, i think its called a vs cam or vs hot cam, it has nothign to do with it being for a vs commodore just the name for it, if u can find info on it on the next i know they are lumpy and sound good, heard one in the flesh, but unless ur planning on running...

sorry about the same post as jason my page dosent seem to load up new replys as it said i was first to reply before, but had a think about it, if its inconsistant and picks up with revs, try having a look at any of your idler pulleys lol making sure engine is off see if there is any excessive...

how many k's are on the car? as piston slap is a thing that occurs mostly as cold starts till the engine warms and expands has it has a hard life? sorry for jumping to the worse case senario im a mechanic and im just used to things being a hard a job as possible and never easy

is it when you have the demister on in the front windscreen, as i think its the acuator pump or something cant think of it off hand which is vaccumm opperated next time you drive turn the air completely off and see if it changes or change settings from re-circulate and fresh air and see if it...

im guessing your talking about the bcm if you need to get your keys programmed to it, with the bcm in my case i have a l67 so it may be different to an ss, but i had to get the numbers from the case of the bcm and tell the place i was getting it from so they could get a matching unit, so im...

if your going with the super servo make sure u get the wider kevlar band put in aswell as after 6 months on a standard band i broke off the part where the strut from the servo mounts to the band, and its only an extra 40-60 bucks so the ammount of extra life u will get out of it it pays for itself

spose it depends on where and how your converter was made we have all our converters custom made and unless you buy from a big brand name company that makes thousands of the same converters the stall will slightly vary from your chosen stall, that would be why yours hit in at 2800 but ive never...

i like the sound of the carby ls1, is the k-frame the same or different in 6's and 8's? but preferably i would like an old cast iron 350, as the potential to go huge in cubes is there, and any aftermarket part you could ever think of already been done, i think i might have a look at the...
