Rust in all the same places as an xseries really. Being a ghia is it vinyl roof? If its manual check the top trailing arm mounts on the body as they tear out.

Q your drinking again ain't you...

1. Yes.
2. 90% of the time i use a sealant or a dressing to suit the application.
3. Dunno, i usually just get 8.8grade black bolts of the req length and lop the heads off them with an angel grinder. use 2 nuts locked together to turn them in. All my non critical studs are made this way. cheaper, Imma fishass.
4. i don't. cork gaskets eat dick. That said, i have a small leak from the back. The bolts work loose. Studs and an appropriate locking method for the nuts would probably fix this and stop the seal being broken. But then again, i did make my rocker cover spacer myself with a jigsaw. LAWL =D
5. Two options:
a.) Run one to a catch can then to the plenum. Ie, between the throttle butterfly and the head so it causes a low pressure in the engine/sump. this will give your sump vacuum and reduce oil leaks. Run the other line to the air cleaner. make sure it is getting FILTERED air or you will suck dust into your engine and intake.
b.) Block one off. the other, run to a catch can and then vent to atmosphere. Make sure the catch circuit it is as free flowing as possible and includes a diffuser or you will 1 spatter oil all over the engine bay. and 2, the engine will get a positive crankcase pressure and cause oil leaks from every conceivable seal that isn't perfect.
 
 
As for the manifold spacer. Make one out of marine ply, sand and lacquer it. Make sure the one you use is fuel and oil resistant. use the money you save to buy a jigsaw and a scotch carton. Post pics.

There's no reason a cork gasket should leak on a thick EFI cover.Thoughly clean both surfaces with a alcohol based cleaner, a very light smear of RTV sealant on both sides of the gasket then set on the head and place cover on top and do it up in sequence and dont go overboard.My Aussie speed unit never leaks with a cork gasket when done as above.

Something is wrong with Tapatalk ??? <br />Anyways im just gonna go back to working on my <150rwkw corty ;-)

Brake pad come loose and the top leans in whilst reversing but not wen going forwards as it will be pushing away. Thats my guess and vibration caused by same thing but thats only guessing mate. Or maybe a rock caught in there or something.

Well SNAIL ETR is running again and quite well but gonna make a few changes over the weekend and then i will post some new pics and vids. Got a few rubbing issues that need to be sorted aswell. Rear tyres and tailshaft hitting the floor DOH! Gonna try to fix those as well ;-)

We call that doing a TUCKER round these parts lol

How much oil pressure should a crossflow have on idle?

ICE doesnt do a system specific to a crossy, i got a quote off them and they told me to use a TFI dizzy and off them i would get a 2 step setup, coil and leads for $1300. MSD was much the same except i can graph my own timing curves, run a map sensor, boost, NOS watever and for half the price. I would love an ICE ignition setup but really the cost well out ways the gain. Thats just my opinion..

Selfish bastard!!! We have become a custom to wen crazy designs we all win lol

Did someone mention a fishes asshole lol

I dont have #1 grounded and it works still? But yes i use TFI and msd 6530 programmable ;-)

I got a diff built by Dave (pro250) with spool and falcon axles cut and resplined then he makes a backing plate and chucks on falcon discs and calipers. Just need to run AU on offset rims. Others just redrill the corty axles.

Dimoffs quote 450- 600hp box for $1300 with full manual but anywhere else quote 2-3k for same sort of rating.

Not the best pics but for a $7.50 rubber mallet and a heat gun it done the job exactly how i wanted it :-) <br /><br />

Wheres the dislike button lol

Well engine is stripped now and new block has gone to the shop so with my new lower comp and the changes ive made hopefully i can get her low 12's. no times on the board yet but im being realistic cause im gonna go nuts on the other engine haha! WA's fastest corty i think not :-( my baby i think so ;-)
