cheers guys, ^ i just wanna get the thing going properly i did tell him i can get an already made loom, he thinks he can fix the problem cheaper then the $400 loom,so the waiting game begins.

Vl is now fixed for good!!! Yay
hey people,
well the mechanic found the problem,he went right through our wiring and couldn't fault it (so the adjustments my dad done to the wiring fixed that problem,WHICH WAS NOT PUT THE INJECTORS ON CONSTANT POWER)
how the wiring was the first time it made one of my brand new injectors go dud which we didn't release(IT STILL HAD POWER JUST WASN'T DOING WHAT IT SHOULD),we put an old injector in and BAM she RUNS beautifully!!
SO FAULTY INJECTOR OR THE ORIGINAL WIRING MADE THIS PROBLEM,problem solved new it wasn't to hard haha.
have not been invoiced yet he is going to do my exhaust and a power steer line couple of hours labor, so fairly cheap.
then will put up a video of the beast next week!!

I've been waiting for this update, thats awesome news.
Holden special vehicles
yes i was wrapped when he said it's only the injector,and to make it better the bloke i brought them off on eBay said he will exchange them for WORKING ones,think i will just sell them and keep the genuine ones lol.
hows your vl going dude no more updates?
My VL Walkinshaw replica project
i cant do much more without a little cash injection.
The 6 needs a new cai, power transistor or both, then if it fires its still not firing on all 6 cylinders.
any money i put into the 6 is dead money since I'm going to do the 5l conversion but i cant afford the v8 just yet. the credit card needs rescuing first.
I'm keeping an eye out for anything that comes up in terms if a diff or 5l thats a reason able price and near enough to pickup but am not seeing much.
perhaps i need to take a week off and get an extra weeks annual leave paid out...
Hey mate, Sorry to hi-jack ya thread. But having a go wiring my 304EFI in my VH. Quick question, Where did you get your Ign on. power from? Also, Do all those other wires have to stay in the loom? Or can they be stripped out?

no worries mate enjoy the wiring ha ha, how did you go with you're rear brakes did my trick work??Originally Posted by CORNY4
just turn you're reds on,get a test light put it on some of the fuses in your fuse box what ever has power use, remember don't take it from the fuel pump and don't over load the the one you take it from,
(depends are you going with aircon? leave them in for now once you get it going take them out, that's what i've done.
My VL Walkinshaw replica project
Unfortunately no. The rear brakes still have no fluid! haha. And nah it hasn't got air con. Plus, to make things more tricky for me. The fuse box is under the dash, Instead of in the engine bay, like VL's?
Holden special vehicles
strange about the brakes,u can buy bleeders now at repco, that go on a compressor maybe try that.
go with out the air-con much easier and yeah vl's fuse boxers are in the bay,be a bugger under the dash,take it out prob easier.
My VL Walkinshaw replica project
Take the dash out? or The fuse box?
Holden special vehicles
dash? not sure in a vk if its easier though it was a lot easier in my datsun 1200 ute.

Hey, where did you get the vn donor car from.
I'm looking for a donor at the moment and dont really want to go over 2.5k if i dont have to.
i've got a bit of cash to get mine on the road and I want to spare some for the roadworthy, rego and insurance.
Holden special vehicles
hey mate i got mine for $1000 off eBay, though the engine had 400k on it that's why she was rebuild,still worked out cheap once i took the bits i needed and sold the rest.
all i can say is be paitient something will come along i waited over a year lol.
My VL Walkinshaw replica project
im not that patient since my car has been in the garrage for over 2 years now. i've finally got a little extra cash and i want to get it on the orad, slel my vy and pay back the bank a little.
I think I'll call around wholesale car traders to see whats around
