2014 VF SS Ute
Hey guys,

I've got a VF1 SS Ute with the 6.0 L77, it's already got the Walkinshaw W310 pack (AFM delete, OTR intake, headers, exhaust, tune) on it which is lovely but I'm starting to feel the itch for more rumble so I'd like to put a moderate cam on it. Has anyone got some recommendations for good shops around Melbourne that they have used in the past?

Cheers,
BFG

Give HPF a call in Dandenong, they currently have their Thunder pack special going. Cam upgrade, Higgins heads and valve springs for about $5 / 6k

Which side of Melbourne?
Can recommend Dale Paterson in Tullamarine if up that way.

I agree 100% with the recommendation above.

After a cam upgrade, my car was a pig to drive.
Dale transformed the car into something I love driving now.

I don't have a suggestion of where to go, but I can say don't go to Dynomotive, if you're considering them, because they're not great putting it politely..

No matter where you go there will be stories both positive and negative. GM motorsport gets my vote

Place I mentioned to not use completely botched my tune, it was an absolute pig to drive. I had it sorted by a local bloke. Difference was night and day.
