Hi Scott. Let me know if you are after a reco'd box ready to go. I have the one that was on the ute that joined up to the Torrie column.

Thanks for the offer Brett, but I have already cobble together one that should do the job. https://www.fbekholden.com/forum/viewto ... 65#p272065
Just need to cut the original shaft and profile a DD into it to accept a 17mmDD to 3/4DD Uni or rag joint. Haven't pulled the trigger on that purchase until I get an engineer involved.

I look forward to seeing what you do Scott. It will be innovative as always

If Scott isn't interested Brett, let me know what you need for it mate

Having a shed tidy up. To come are a few holden electronic distributors and a few WW2 Strombergs and manifolds. Also a box of brake and clutch cylinders and bits.
Basically getting rid of everything that doesn't belong on the ute.

Making some carb changes. While the hole is there, a pic of the extractors for those contemplating.

Very handy for me! Have the same extractors along with the triple SU's to massage into that space. Good reference for the firewall massaging required.
Thanks Brett
