VH8VX69 - SL/E
L31 - 5.0 V8 Hi Comp
M40 - Trimatic Auto
GU4 - 3.08 diff ratio
VH is a blue motor so red must have been a choice of color unless they actually did put a red motor in. Does it look standard, electronic dizzy and stuff, post some pics

[saladine1]

Lol, sorry for the confusion. Changed title.

It's got electronic dizzy and i'm pretty sure eng prefix is that of a VH.

I just searched it on the net a while ago, there are a few good sites around, I can check when I get home as I printed one out a while ago.

Do either of you guys know how many different colours you could get the two tone in? Just the Dark Blue, Light Blue, Green, Red, and the Maroon. Is that all? was there an option for Ice green over silver? you would imagine so since you have light and dark for everything else. I've seen a brown and dark grey? almost black but not sure if they are legit colours or not.

P.S. there's nice green on on ebay at the moment but 4 grand starting bid

[SL/ENUT]

There is a light green(ice green?) over Silver in the VH range. The brown and dark grey is, not legit. The factory shadow tone colour is what ever over silver.

Cool, I haven't seen a ice green (it's silvery green) over silver, that must be very rare but I suspected it might exsist. So pretty much you could have any VH colour over silver?
