Mick,

I've got two grey boxes for sale:

A bit pricey compared to runners that havn't been overhauled, though no dearer than buying a crap runner and doing the overhaul yourself.

Cheers,
Harv

thanks harv i've seen your boxes for sale i'm not entirely sure what i'm doing yet first thing would be to see if an engine turns up and i think i need to use the EJ type box as i'll be useing an EJ/EH steering collum if that collum will work with the earlier box then one of your boxes may be fine
will wait and see what turns up thanks

Mick ive got an ej motor here. Its complete with exractors. I bought it as a good runner for $350. I havent heard it run though.
Its yours for what i paid.

[bootlegger]

Mick forgot to add. Ill be wreckng out an ej so ill have the other stuff you need also.
Not wrecking it out till i finish my van though.

looks like it's gunna be to much of a hassle and to expensive (given I want to change the timing gear run twins and electronic ignition at a minimum) so another one gets the chop so an aussie 4 speed can go in behind a red motor

[Mick]

holy crap mick I go away for a couple of years and the place turns upside down are you feeling OK

i just figured so many people love them there has to be something i'm missing maybe all the others i've had or drove were duds plus i'm 50 now
i'm actually fairly dissapointed that i'm going with the red motor 4 speed now but i just can't justify what it will cost to go with a grey

[Craig]

Hi Blacky going well life is hectic with work and kids same as everyone I spose how are things with you mate

Mick/harry/ratbox you are right greys are slow but reds are for homos crazy that reds are cheaper but prices on grey hop up/hot up bits is crazy

still have 2 of mine 7 the EK is my daily when I'm home drove it out to work as coulnt get on the plane 7 hours each way ran great for a dirty EK with a red I still have another grey hotty in the shed that I want to put in but finding the time is the hard bit

the FB has only been out of the shed twice this year fires up first go and sound awsome might have to get it out this weekend

[Mick]
