    G'day,
    Just wondering if anyone can help.
    I've been offered some 36lb ecotec bosch injectors, will they fit into a VR series1 motor?

    Cheers.

    yeah they'll fit 100%, but there's some speculation whether they'll kill your motor or not due to differing flow rates

    36 lb injectors will be the white ones from the super 6, waaaaaaaaay to big and not needed at all for a normal VR

    Ok, no problems.
    But here's my problem.
    I'm lookin for some cheap reliable power.
    I'm gonna put in a transgo stage 2 shift kit.
    A wider heaver duty gearbox band.
    A corvette servo.
    And possibly larger 2nd and 4th servos, if needed.
    I'm gonna port and polish(if that's what its called) the intake plenum.
    And possibly port, polish and portmatch my heads.
    I wanna do everything myself to save money.
    Is there anything else I can do?
    I don't wanna change the diff gears, coz I do a lot of highway drivin.
    Its got a lsd(its a bt1)
    The car does go really well, but I know there's allot more potential there.

    Anyone with any ideas?

    I really would appreciate the input.

    consider some 3.45 gears, i've got these in my VN and haven't noticed a increase in fuel consumption. get the LSD tightened. the trans work is definitly a good idea. for the engine get some YT 1.95:1 rockers. if your going to pull the heads off, give em a shave to raise the CR a little. other then that the standard headers and 2.5" exhaust and good airfilter with CAI should cover it. then talk to greenfoam and get a tune done

    cost of polish and shave cost?

    That all sounds doable, but when u say LSD tightened? U mean different gears?
    Also roughly how much to have a port polish and shave?
