[detox_nath83]

man do a search.. vl already has a gauge unless u dont got 1 and wanna be uleh...
you need the signal wire to come from coil and then earth(Anywhere metal on car) as well as 12volt..
u can tap in to ciggie lighter for power... u can pick up coil signal from behind dash cluster plug brown with red stripe i think splice in to this wire.. goodluck+ merry christmas very drunk man i am

[IDO-360]

Yes you do and the spigot

[calais24/7]

Not sure if it's been mentioned but the spark plug for the na 6cyl is BKR6E-11 and BCPR6E

[detox_nath83]

im using BCPR 6Es11 for the turbo.. i just went with what was used for the turbo model in the manual :P

[calais24/7]

Yeah looked on there internet catalouge and it said one of them and the catalouge in supercheap said otherwise and they where both ngk guides :/ But they both work i had the BCPR 6Es11 in there and swapped for the BKR6E-11 and there is like no differance

[mag]

BCPR6ES-11 is the Recommended Plug..

The BKR6E-11 is the same but 2.5mm shorter in body length not thread length

304 Wagons are rare enough as it is. I'd rebuild it (but if you are going to the trouble of changing motors, i'd only swap it out for an EFI 304 or LS1)

hey mr knowitall stealthy do u know how rare the vl v8 wagons are then?

[STEALTHY™]

Dont know total builds. But theres alot less V8 Calais wagons than Turbo calais wagons (personally i'd rather a turbo tho) and likewise the other models (berlina and exec)
