I'll be waiting for your Torana front end conversion to EK results/feedback Rat.
I've always liked the Torana front ends and a UC would be good especially with the RTS suspension.
Make sure you get plenty of piccies for us Rat.
Ratbox Conversions Research and Development sounds like a good business name to me
I can't think what to write here so this will do.

Ed Ho's username is "Ed" on the FE/FC forum if that's the bloke you mean.
I know there was mention of someone doing Torana front install into early holden on that forum a fair while back.Maybe type searchwords on that forum and it may come up with something.

nah J that just looks like the average FB with dragways, if i do it it will be unmisstakable what it is
terry the torana front in the EK is out, IF the ute happens it'll go in it, there is pics on the FC forum it all looks pretty easy to do

Not sure Ratbox if this is the one you mean..... This Guys done a fantastic job of his chassis, with the torana graft, it looks like it should be there from factory.....
