Thanks, I just saw this…nothing unfortunately. Looks like ill be going a forged 402, so as I don’t need to change engine numbers.

I did look at this, but can’t really find reviews, so am nervous. It’s a big margin between Circle D’s claims and the figures here from builders; which def sows some seeds of doubt.

i hear you re the auto…it’s a bit of a nightmare. Either spend a fortune on a 6l90 and have it rebuilt or go a 4l80. I’m not keen on a 4l80 in a daily with freeway k’s. I contemplated an tr6060 swap, but it just seemed too hard.

Thanks for the tip. I’m currently looking at doing Dart block with forged internals good for 1500; so we can really turn it up in the future!

Auto, which needs a rebuild. KPM 1500hp in tank set up.

Yep, on a hub dyno and way more than i expected too! Intercooled with a 12l coolant reservoir to help keep it cool. Though it is looking like I’ve done a lifter…the tune is def pushing the old l77 to its limits

In my car (blown l77) the difference is nearly 100hp. On the dyno it showed 705hp on 98, 785hp on e60, so guesstimating 800hp on e85. In a boosted engine it’s fantastic!

Thanks, BTW, how is your tranny from Hasty going?

Sorry to resurect an old thread, but did you end up doing a rebuild on your 6L80 VF Sleeper?

I second the 12l reservoir and 8pk belt, though I’m only running an 80mm pulley. A mate runs the interchiller system on his ls3 with a 2300 and swears by it.

Mate, 2650 is awesome! You won’t be disappointed. As others have said, you’ll probably need a fuel system (I’ve got a KPM 1500). For context I’ve got a 2650 on an stock bottom end L77 with Higgins Heads and a mild cam, LSA front drive and it made 785hp on e60….it’s immense fun! You really...

You must be stoked!

Holy **** that fuel economy is horrific. I get 450-500 to a tank of 98 in my blown and cammed 6.0. Does it smell like an XY with a massive cam dripping fuel out the exhaust

Hi Grevis, I started with a set of King springs Ultra lows and Super lows. Looked great but dragged its guts everywhere. Then went to a set of Shockworks coil overs, which have been fantastic. Slightly higher but still drags its guts occasionally. I am running a DPE exhaust, which hangs low, and...

Hi Guys, I worked it out….there is no relay. Just the fuse and then controller on the fan. Looks like a trip to the auto elec. Cheers

Hi All, my cooling fans have stopped working. I have checked the fuse and it’s all good. I’ve turned on the air-con and fans don’t turn on. I’ve searched the forums and web and checked both fuse boxes and can’t find info on the location of the cooling fan relay, so as I can check that. If...

Hey Forg, what’s under the hood of the Volvox?

Hi HDJ, did you get your tune sorted?

Two different businesses Mate. Russo are at Smeaton Grange (I think) and Fink is down here. Fink is purely engineering and can work with you and your installer to engineer the install. the $16k was quoted by Russo and would only be blower install and tune. As Banjo noted, it would be a very...

Speak with Fink Engineering in Wollongong re engineering a blower

Mate, i hear you, but we all know the rules and I’ll bet the vast majority of modded cars that should be engineered, aren’t. I’m sure Kelly can speak with any installer/tuner worth their salt about engineering mods and they will be able to steer them in the right direction.

Hi Kelly, I’m in the ‘Gong too and Kon @ WAS has done most of the work on my car and is still doing upgrades and tuning, I’ve been talking to him about the 2650 as well. I also spoke with Russo a couple of weeks back and they told me $16k for a 2650, drive in drive out. Food for thought.

Hi all, I’m going to be getting a set of the Shockworks coilovers installed on my VF wagon and would aporeciate thoughts from those who have them. Particularly interested in ride height with 19” wheels (photos greatly appreciated). I currently run King ultra lows and love the stance and am...

Sound files please!

Will do!

Thanks for the replies......options are certainly limited! I dont want the flappy paddles as this is more about look and comfort than performance. My car is cammed and i roll it into neutral at the lights; which, due to driving in Sydney is pretty regular, and I want something that looks...

Hi all, I am interested in replacing the stock auto shift handle with a pistol grip or another more interesting and am looking for advice on options as I can’t seem to find any that fit. I’ve searched the forum and got 0 results so apologies if this has been disussed before. Thanks heaps Fallsy
