RAWDEAL

Au injectors have a better spray pattern than the earlier 4.0 ones. If your planning to go turbo later on why not just get some good condition au ones for now, then later spend money getting exactly what you need?

I want that car!!!

Yep. Ive bought many e series and ran them into the ground Kangaroos, then i just buy another lol. they tow and drive 100x better than an xf

http://www.snortperformance.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=category&layout=blog&id=14&Itemid=14 they are about the dearest . but ive seen log style ones go for 150-300$ put a pic up of your one where it is bent?

Everything can be fixed . just depends on how much you want to spend, by the sounds of things, it would be cheaper to get a new one made from steampipe, than to have an engineering shop fix it

I just changed out the Syntrans in my 6 speed manual, for a penrite 70/75. it has made the shift feel WORSE . i am prolly gonna do a little experiment and change up to a thicker oil (because the box is worn) . then see what happens if it makes it even worse ill put syntrans back in it I figured i would use the GM oil because its what is used in the astra, and it shouldnt stuff up the pump

I am now running a Ts Astra power steering pump Using the standard GM oil for now I havnt taken it for a decent drive yet so i have to see how it goes

haha thats what people said about the Ed wagon diff in the back!

I have an xb with 350mm rotors on the front and e series disks on the back, my master cylinder has shat it i think... so i am looking to replace , but upgrade at the same time i have heard that maybe XC ones fit ? does a dual diaphram booster make any difference ? Its been 41 years so i figured both of them need to be replaced lol

Bro just go and buy an Eb wagon or ute diff . they are heaps better, and not to hard to fit up

I took the xc one appart and tigged some studs on to suit the xb master cylinder lol

I figured the max pressure shouldn't matter of the pump, because it just hits the relief valve anyways ? Which only happens when the car is at full lock? The engine was sitting around for about a year before i put it in the car ... maybe because it was empty for so long, the thing just gave up lol i will change the pump this weekend , and see what happens

I ended up needing a new booster, and reco'd the master cylinder anyways I am now running an XC/ZH booster on the XB master

I have an AU radiator in my xb and AU thermos . worked well , got to 110 in the clevo which is grout filled , only a few times while in ~35 degrees in traffic for 20 mins ect that was with the standard ~35 amp alternator or whatever they are. when the fans were on they wernt very loud , i recon that alternator couldnt spin them fast enough now i have a 110a alt so ill see how i go with that i wouldnt mind getting one of these china rads as the inlet and outlet is on the other side.. the au rad has the outlets on the wrong side and its annoying lol for 120$ for the rad brand new and about 100 for the fans also new. well worth it IMO i was looking for a factory looking setup as well ill try to dig up a picture

My project car is nearly on the road , and it just has a leaf sprung e series diff in it I was going to put a LOKKA in it as its only a pegger diff at the moment whos running one? are they any good ? The price seems right for me , i dont like the whole clutch cones wearing out idea either

I have BF xr8 brakes on the front. might have to put an xr 3:45 ute diff in the back lol. that way ill .. sorta.. match the offset. which is something ive been contemplating

ill correct myself lets me slide around corners and do burnouts***

Noise or not . If they work like an LSD , and dont cut the lifespan down on my driveline . ill be buying one !

I have found a new , but oldschool high energy sump for the 302w for 150$ . not a bad deal i recon Anyone know if they use a different pickup ect?

I want to buy a new sump for my XB, its got a 302 Windsor in it . I am not sure if any of the sumps i can buy from the usa will fit? AFAIK any 'front sump' Will do ? i want to buy this sump as my car is low as shit.. lol http://www.jegs.com/i/Trans-Dapt/969/8652/10002/-1?parentProductId=750265

I have a kit of bfxr8 brakes onto my xb. But i diddnt purchase the kit new. All it is, is a machined bracket though.. easy to get made

My 351 that i got rebuilt has had a premature death. after about 1000ks ffs.... So i am going to put the 302w i have in my xb. it has a torker 2 manifold and an impco425, extractors(shorty ltd ones) , still retains the stock accessorys on the front, will be pulling the clutch fan off in favor of thermos Just wondering is there any little issues i should consider ? ie Sump Clearance? Does the powersteering pump on the 1994/302ws work with a steering box? I am 99.999% sure the bellhousing pattern is the same.. ?

Messed around with the radiator hoses.. Looks better now I need to sort out the gas converter mounting Ordered a proflow billet accelerator bracket to

I diddnt see that pic lol.. i am thinking of deleting the ac from mine... But made up my mind about the silly power steering pump, iam gonna get a different pump and try to get rid of the stupid aluminum all in one bracketry they have, it looks cluttered and shit! I aquired a set of pacemaker windsor extractors for the car today off of a mate, i dont know if they fit my car, the hopefully do, and i can drive it again They have stamped on them "898' i might ring them tmoz and see if thats an old model number Also bought some bends for the top rad hose, i am not happy with the way it is from factory, also bought some 38mm stainless tube

Are you running the serpentine setup?
