EK V8 Conversion help

Post by duck »

Hi, i am new to this so i am hoping someone can help me out. I have a 61 EK and i am looking at putting a v8 in it. I am trying to find out how much is involved such as what has to be done to the front end, chassis if anything what diff i can use etc. I have done v8 conversions in HQ/HJ Holdens and XC falcons but nothing that didn't have a v8 model.
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Kevin

There're also heaps of V8 EK build threads in the "My FB EK" section on the forum. Chev EK, Helenor & (perhaps the most detailed) V8EK4us, to name few - and here's ours to get you started: http://www.fbekholden.com/forum/viewtop ... =11&t=9773.

Cheers, Steve
