    Hey Mate. I ended up with the full kit Hurricanes and twin 3inch quiet from Manta on my VE SSV auto sedan,I wouldn't say its quiet but its not overly loud either. no drone at 100km/h either. Car has VCM532, OTR CAI, YT roller rockers, and other supporting mods. Proof of the pudding is 400+rwhp...

    Dyno Sheets

    Cheers, Fallsy. I was impressed that it made 400+ hp it's only a tiny cam and the 6.0l would help with the torque. It really is a very streetable combo (even though it does push on the converter a little when stopped at the lights) I'm yet to take it to the strip but that day will happen...

    Suggestions for Cam 6L (L76)

    You can still get the VCM21 profile you just have to buy it from the manufacturer who makes VCM's cams. I think it's comp cams. I have the VCM532 with supporting mods in my ve, good upgrade over standard. I have a VCM532 thread in here somewhere...

    Hi Mate, Idle isn't rough (so to speak) but was lumpier than I thought it would be,cold start is fine so far. Does push a bit on auto when stopped at traffic lights. I only use light throttle around town so mine can be driven on street without to many worries. Give Brad a call at...

    Anybody got a new vcm532 cam

    Well it's done, finally got the tune done at Insane Performance in Rockhampton. It performed very well and the tuner was happy with the results, ended up with 411hp and 762nm with good afr's. Car drives well and has been transformed, so yeah I do recommend this camshaft along with a good tune shop.

    UHF Radio installation

    yeah mate, I haven't put one into a commodore but installed one into my prado. I just went off the back of the cigarette lighter for power and have the external speaker mounted so I can hear it. easy install. aerial mounting and running cable will probably take longer to do.

    253 blue motor cam

    Yep, agree the standard dual plane manifold was a really good manifold for engines up to 5500rpm matched with a vaccuum secondary carb ,quadrajet, 465 Holley will be excellent on the street.

    253 blue motor cam

    Don't know if the company is still around but Waggot Cams had a 104 cam for these motors that was a torque cam. If not the TQ20 was the other option. Waggot cams live, or try wadecams, tighecams, watson racing cams, old school.

    2009 VE SSV vs 2007 BF MKII XR6 Turbo. Which one would you choose?

    Obviously the SSV was the car you wanted when you bought it and you said you cant believe you might have to sell it. Keep making payments, unless your in dire straits and enjoy otherwise you'll be loosing money and then getting a car your not so sure on. Just my experience/opinion!
