Wow very nice, don't know how I missed this.
Black is beautiful, boot lip is great, altezzas are okay, better than the chrome ones and go decent with the panther mica.

Thanks!!!!

022 is the same ratio as mine. Depending on your power out put, you may also want to think about a really good clutch setup.
I used a billet ECOTEC one with semi organic plate and a very heavy pressure plate, the thing only lasted a couple of months.
I now run a 10.5" flywheel and clutch combo from NPC Performance Clutches: Home it is a semi organic with a extremely heavy duty pressure plate. it is now holding up quite well.

I had to settle for a replacement organic plate for the time being but when the money tree regrows a bit then a 10.5 ceramic will be on the cards, how did you lift your box, last time I played with a t56 I had some extra muscle but not this time around.

I am lucky I have a hoist!!! I am getting to old to bench press a T56 into a car whilst laying under it. From memory the T56 is about 72 to 75 KG!!!
I still get a mate around when I remove or replace it, even with a hoist it is still pretty hard work. I need to buy/make a gear box lift to make things easier.

my strut brace came in handy along with a ratchet strap around the front of the box and a jack under the rear and after i lifted the front of the engine that bit more it slid in like a finger in a bum, just wish the pin that goes threw the clutch pedal was so easy

That pin is a pain in the bum!!!!
The easy way is to take the plastic trim off then drop the bar that runs across the bottom and move some of the wiring and you will have better access to it.

A mate dropped in some E85 for me today from the United servo at Arundel on the Gold Coast, turns out it is actually about E90. Glad I am running a fat tune!
