Was that because they limited the fun or was it a faulty switch? 🤔

Hi Deankdx,Yes Sir, I gave away a 200 cu/in carby x-flow.with a spare recond head plus a cast iron iron head and I'm thinking about $Getting it back even $Buying it back to use so you don't have these issues.Like go forever without the fancy headaches.Yes Sir there's going to be lots of 1/2 dead or 1/2 alive cars out there in 5 years time.Imagine takeing out a New Range Rover out in the Bush 4WDing.I bought an Red XF S-Pak years ago for $1500.00 with 1 owner old guy with 115,000ks It was like brand newbench seat column on the 3 tree,Analog speedo Drove like a Cream Dream everyone said Thats the best example I've seen of an XF ever.I had a nephew I felt sorry for who did'nt have a car when he left school and a XF S-Pak ute that had some issues.And what did the Fukka do? He Swapped it for a VW Bug Convertible. I Nearly had a seizure.Rule No.1 Look after yourself and let others crawl their way up if they want to.Thanks for the help mate.S.

They just be wishing it was them in it ,,

I get a kick out of this thing only costing me “beer money”

It’s not pretty up close, unrestored , original,
50 year old crazed thin and shitty paint etc

It’s not everyone’s cup of tea,

and I get that.

Out and about driving in traffic most fancy XY GT guys don’t even wave back.

The old Holden blokes do haha

OK, the rear Gas Magnums are in, I was surprised by how thick the studs were and wondered if they would fit, as the GT gas were a lot thinner, but they went in no problems.
Here is the difference...


Ride in ute has tightened up and handling well.
Sorry there are no more comparison shots, had the rears put in for me as I lacked a few tools at home.
Here they are fitted.....


Well, there you go. A heavy duty option for XF-XG Ute's from Monroe.
The ride has really tightened up and ute feels a lot more planted.
The old shocks weren't in too bad condition, they were just too flimsy, you can feel the difference.

Thats all from me and Big Red on shocks time to hit the Highway...

Hahahaha
was it you that bought my ek Holden ,,??!!??!!

Top end is on and it all does what it should!

 
So had a closer look and this is an 83 block.
The original motor out of my ute is an 84, (1990 build ute) and it looks like it has a rubber rear main in it. It also has slightly bigger bolts holding the flywheel on.
 

Easy way would be to fully degrease and scrub the whole area ,,
like real finicky like .
then a short run would show the area it’s coming from ,,
speed and fans etc will “ move “ leaks from places , Ie blow crap everywhere ,,
so take good note of the leaks origins 

V8....... 🙂
 
Hot rod......😁
 
Video not loading.......🙄

Thought they went wc after the ea ,?
xf had non world class ,, but not the sigma type box 

All that green ,,
