OTHER INFO: A lot of money has been spent on this car to turn into basically the best of what is available as factory for the older commodores. It has 4 wheel discs with new rear pads and 70% front pads, with vl turbo/v8 front finned calipers and new 290mm discs, a 1" master cylinder and v8 booster from a VR SS and new wheel bearings at every corner. It is lowered 1-2" all around on VK V8 fe2 springs, has new monroe shocks on every corner, adjustable panhard rod and rear v8 swaybar, so it handles pretty well for an old commodore. It has a dellow celica 5 speed conversion with a reco celica box and brand new exedy 'sports tuff' heavy duty clutch. The diff is a small salisbury that was recently rebuilt with all new bearings and seals and is 3.36 ratio. It has vk blinkers, nice condition vh headlights (not the shithouse repro ones) and vh sle taillights and rear bumper. Full instrumentation (tacho, oil pressure, volts etc). The engine has had an acl race series rebuild with +40thou pistons, crow megatork stage 3 cam, the head has been shaved 50thou for 9.5:1 compression, has been drilled and tapped for crane 1.5 ratio roller rockers, fitted with unleaded/lpg inserts and given a mild porting. It also has crow racing hydraulic springs, crow guide plates, manley hardened pushrods, anti pump up lifters, new cam bearings, new water pump, motorvator extractors into 2.5" exhaust with lukey race muffler, reco varajet carb, alloy timing gear and reconditioned oil pump. Fitted with a custom twin snout cold air intake. The engine is painted ford light blue and has candy blue rocker cover and side plates. The alternator is a 6 month old 120amp one, battery is also 6 month old exide. The original radiator shroud has been fitted with a vs commodore thermo fan which turns on automatically from a davies craig switch.
The car should not need any form of maintenance other than regular servicing for the rest of the life of the car, as it's all been done.
