Wiring is fun if you understand it.

My only suggestion is to keep your fuel pump and ignition wires as seperate looms, it makes it easier if you ever decide to upgrade those items.

Re: SA All Holden Day 2024

Great looking turnout.

Seems to be the trend with people these days, i supervise a team of 50 and have heard it all !

The funniest was i needed to go home because my car battery was flat, How did you start it at the carpark to get home ? Deer in the headlights !!

Good work Roger.

Re: Bonnet bird measurements

Its really easy,

If you can use the computer then you can look up the conversion on Google.

I grew up mid flight with these measurements at school, one day imperial next day metric, and yes it can make your head hurt !!

Heres my bird !

Re: Clay’s Wedgewood Blue FB Ute

Notchy brake pedal ? Ive tried all the spark plug gaps and timing etc but the only true way to get the best out of a motor is on the dyno. At the end of the day its the cubes and gearing that dictate the consumption, on old engines anyway. The other thing is the more power you have the more pedal pr...

Re: Neil's FB Station Wagon

Looking really good Neil,

I have a question relating to the rear cradle, does it have adjustable ride height coil overs ? Just curious if this is possible.

Thanks Greg

I have mashed the pedal a couple of times and it goes instantly !! It did take quite an effort although,...
