[gtrboyy]

Glad I'm not the only one with way too many cars/projects.....got enough to last me past retirement.

What about the third & fourth?

Wonder if that L67 Motor came out of a Green Ute, Kyle? If it's the one im thinking of yeah he spent big dollars on motor, box and paint work...
Anyways sounds like your getting back on track in the new world lol.

Barra with T56, What the... well im selling all my projects so i can move into 1 final one in 3 mths, the Dark side for me, an LS1.

For your bolts, don't bother measuring, just take in a sample to Coventry Fastners. They have the gear there to measure.

Just spoke to Mace

extremely unhelpful LOL

they recommended I source the bolts from ebay

Any ideas where I can get the 50 mill longer M90 retaining bolts etc

The thing is, you don't just need longer bolts, you also need fuel injector spacers and spacers/longer bolts for the injector rail mounts.

MACE used to sell kits will all the bits to suit.

MACE supply cap screws in these kits.

This is what you need.

AIR TO AIR (A2A) INTERCOOLER FITMENT KIT TO SUIT HOLDEN L67 SUPERCHARGED 3.8L V6 (1996-1999)

Product no.AA603,This air-to-air (A2A) intercooler adapter plate fitment kit is ideal when customizing the intercooler setup on your L67 build while still utilizing our A2A plate or one with the identical height (52mm).

Or parts of what you need but the kit is the easiest option as you need the injector spacers.

Thanks mate,

Yes I found this out today when Bazspec called me on FB IM etc.. and let me know after reading this thread..

he said to Phone and speak to Kimmy at Mace and tell her what I need, he referred to the kit you mentioned above..

So doing that in the morning.. I didn't know about the spacers for injectors and fuel rail etc.. and in the kit is a coil pack relocation too, which I wasn't aware of.

So I'll phone her to make sure it's in stock etc and take it from there..

Much appreciated!!
