Nice looking car. Looks like a great job you've done on all the fabricated parts :thumbsup:

How/why did you end up with L36 heads on a L67 bottom-end?

I'll answer this one motor has been rebuilt for turbo setup hance the use of eco heads as using l67 manifold wasnt going to work with turbo setup. George at proflow built the motor

Seems obvious now you say it :)

So I gather the pistons/rods/crank etc are all the L67 boost-ready parts then? Sounds like a good setup :)

Yep thats pretty much it theres no difference really between blocks

Hey mate top looking car, I'm considering getting mine sprayed black. I read the power output, but what kind of torque does it have? Have you ran it at the 1/4?

PS. Pretty sure they are VY GTS rims, not VX.

I wasn't sure when i posted the thread for him what rims they were i knew they were gts of some sort. New setup isnt complete yet but i'm sure when he takes it down the quarter he'll let people know. torque on the new setup should be beyond the 500nm mark

I feel like a prick for answering all his replies :p
