Yea I think these early HSV's were pretty basic, certainly not as well executed as the current ones. But I guess that's some of the appeal. To me the current ones are way too busy, I love the clean simple look of these early cars. To each their own though.

The earlier models were also more exclusive. Anything later than the VS HSVs I cant stand.

You don't need to be 50kmh, once your a little over jogging pace as long as you have uninterrupted flow through the rad the fans aren't doing anything much. What you need is a fundamentally big enough and efficient cooling system. At least initially I am not fitting air con, but once the cars on the road I intend developing it further, so who knows. I would like to be making a genuine and reliable 1000hp one day, that in a little VR would be a lot of fun

Well with a LSX 454 u should be able to do that !!! make it 1200 hp just be sure lol :) iv been in a few 700-800 hp Holden's, vp cluby and vs ss and both where blowen where the fastest ones of all though, an yes it fun that's for sure

But on the whole ur doin what lots of people can only dream of both with the skill and knowledge to do it and the $$$ involved !!!

Great work on this mate. I have followed this build also and it's a real credit to you. Would love to do a build of this quality one myself, but for now I'll just drool over yours. Keep up the good work.
