Welcome to Just Commodores, a site specifically designed for all people who share the same passion as yourself.
Do you really need engineers & how crazy do they go over the car over there?

Decisions Decisions? what to do for now or for later, sounds co$tly especially aftermarket stuff.Another quick update, things have been a little slow, but are ramping up now.. the stato is now starting to disappear, piece by piece. Been flogging off the interior for a few bux here and there.
Pulled the K frame out of the VH and found a VL intermediate shaft on gumtree.. Paid for it about 8 weeks ago and it still hasn't shown up so looks like I've been ripped off.. Gotta love some of the people on there... At least I got a good deal on some beefy Nolathane upper trailing arms last week.
The fuel tanks are out of both cars. I'm just waiting on a piece of 5mm aluminium from a mate, which is going in the corner of the boot on drivers side, as a base for my battery relocation box. That should arrive tomorrow and then I can install the tank back underneath. New battery cable is sorted and I've run it through a grommet in the back firewall, just deciding if I go across the back seat and down passenger side (as that's where the starter is) or down drivers side or alongside the tunnel..
In two frames of mind about fuel lines - could just chuck the stock lines in for now, but once it's through regency I'd like to pull the motor and design something to run on E85 so I'll need larger lines, and it's a good time to get it done now.. so maybe I should just bite the bullet and make my own.. Fuel line isn't expensive, it's the AN fittings that add up lol..
Time to get the tank strap extended and look at ordering the trans xmember from tuffmounts.
Engineer report needed if any mods are done in SA, if straight conversion 8 cyl 304 to 6cyl factory 4 wheel disk car then just for new engine number on rego. Ulp filler and exhaust cat installed and good to go, no issues with any running gear.Do you really need engineers & how crazy do they go over the car over there?
