the fitting on the carb spacer is just vacuum right?
Yes the vac goes into the spacer - running premium unleaded with a little 2 stroke for the blower but not much

Very cool Rob. The torque curve is what gets my eye. You need a big period van to tow around keep you in check.

A guy in a ranger pulled up to me on way home and really wanted to get in front - I think I surprised him by not allowing that to happen

I was really happy with how it runs now - you can cruise around in second or top and it has no issues and no need to be up and down the gears so the combo of the 2 inch su and the maggy is just about spot on - started up super easy next morning as well with no choke needed

- the power assist steering is next level great - can do a uturn in two lanes easy

Hi Wally
I am really interested in your power steering set up can you give me as much information as you can and a contact would be nice. I am running a modified torana collapsible column at the moment

It came from eZ power in uk Billy - they were great to communicate with - mine is a standard EK three on tree column and box which was a first for them so unlikely they have done a torana column but dont they already have power steering?

Axistar on the Torana forum does a power rack conversion.

Torana's don't have power steering and the conversions are normally powered racks.
Billy has a Torana column which is collapsible, so i am assuming that can be modified by this UK company ?

With all due respect gpi but a standard VN V6 is 127kw which is around 170Hp so I think Wally's got a few ponies to catch up

Might catch up on power to weight ratio?
