Hey guys, Just so you know, the resistor is there because the coil is designed to run on about 10 volts. The resistor is actualy bypassed then the vehicle is cranking because the voltage will drop to about 10 volts when the starter motor is turning the motor over. A STD non resistor coil will not ma...

Yes, HSV headers will clear the engine mounts. The engine pipe is the pipework that goes between the headers and the catlitic converter. I saw this modified slightly on one to fit, it looked quite easy to do. This was the way the exhuast shop recommended i do mine, but i went to the trouble of fitti...

Oh, and the exhuast is fairly easy if you use HSV headers and engine pipe.........

A good way to make the mounts stronger is to slide (or bash) a lump of thick steam pipe through the centre of the round tube that runs through the front chassie rails. If you fish plate the chassie rails and weld them to that pipe it becomes quite strong. I had a XD9000 winch in my old zook in a ARB...
