Cheers guys!! Thankyou all for the great support throughout the build!

Had an awesome time at the Nats, met alot of great people and saw the most outstanding line up of Holden's best!! Well done to everyone!

Here are some pics of the car at the Devil's Marbels on the way to the Nats and the Hilborn 8 Stack EFI injection, this system flows 2500 cfm! The system wasfitted by Don Mammone of Don's Auomotive and Performance in Mildura....... Don is one incredible person and an awesome wealth of knowledge!! A great friend has been gained by dealing with Don.

In Don's workshop (check the HX ute, that was on the cover of Extreme Street a few issues back).
