Looks good mate, nothing like jumping into the 6L when you get off your P's. Makes the 3 years worth the wait haha

Good luck with the exhaust and tune, just keep in mind the L77 has a bad rep for having lifters collapsed. Mine done it not long after I purchased it, luckily it was still under warranty. I guess it would come down to wether the dealer would honour the warranty depending on engine mods you have done.

I'll keep an eye on this for future mods aswell :spot on:

yer SUP3RST4R_DJ so stoked once I got it have worked pretty hard to get it.
yer always thought V8 manual had L98 till I seen L77 on the engine bay info plate didnt know the difference so done some research and realised it has AFM hardware in it so I was like oh great lol. So keen to get an exhaust on it haha

plastidipd my wheels today

anyone know how to remove the chrome strip above the number plate on series 2 was gunna also plastidip it to see what it would look like.

Hey guys
Just a question in regards to headers is there a difference between the L98 and the L77 in the way they mount up. Will L98 fit L77 just cause these only mention L98 VE V8 LS2 LS3 L98 V8 Commodore 4 TO 1 Pacemaker Extractors Headers SS HSV PH5382 | eBay

I have decided on 1 7/8 Pacemaker headers 100cpi cats and 3 inch xforce all stainless.

I wouldn't think so. Its the same block just a few different internals so can't see why they wouldn't fit. I may be wrong though.

Wheels look good plasti dipped. Awesome stuff, I need to re do one wheel after getting a new tyre fited today

 

[CV60VE]

thanks mate ill try do some digging
ahh thats no good thought the tyre fitting machine might rip the plastidip off.

 

[Tommo_27]

Most is fine, just one part (maybe 5cm long) is bubbled up and all loose/lifting up. Easy enough to re do it.

 

[SUP3RST4R_DJ]

Looks good mate, I dipped my S2 SSV's black not long ago and I'm really happy the way the look.

I agree with Tommo_27, the headers should fit as the L77 and L98 are pretty much the same except for the collapsible lifters and AFM gear.
