    Default VP diff into vh

    Gday guys, I've been given a vp commodore for free!! My brother was going to use as spare parts now he doesn't want it any more. So I scored a free car!! I just want to know if the diff and tailshaft, brakes setup, will they fit into my vh? Motor S2 has a sticky lifter and a small oil leak.....Cheers Jason

    THe other guys must have had a bad day.

    VP diff will bolt into VH no problems.

    VP brake lines will connect up.

    If you have rear drums in you VH you will need to change the handbrake cable to a disc one.

    You will need the rear half of a tailshaft from a VL to connect to the VP diff.

    VP diff is 57mm wider overall so it limits your tyre choice.

    And if you have drums now and swap to discs you need a 4 wheel disc brake master cylinder.

    Thanks VBRED and VK SL 3800, For your advice. Having just 15" stockies, and disc brakes alway round, so yeah I'm going to used the master cylinder as well the booster plus the lines and calipiers I have new rotors. Also, putting a S1 motor instead of S2 motor. I've done reSREACH on the two motors. I'm using the S1 motor and auto.The auto has a stage 1 shiftkit in it. Plus I've started to rebuild the S1 motor, New cam bearings, Had the camshaft refurbished, New Gaskets. Looking to up the comp to 9.5, Cause its needs New pistons, rings etc.... Will the fuel lines fit into my vh? This car is my everyday car.My vk has a V8 in it. Cheers Walks....

    As for Ari666 and Vkberlina, I was just asking a little advice!!! vbred and vk sl 3800 Thankyou

    Fuel lines won't fit due to the body on VN's upwards being wider. Just use your VH lines and run a return line back to the tank. I used efi rubber hose. Use a fuel injected tank too. 10.5:1 is ok on 98.
