I am actually interested to know what sort of driveline bits , these big HP rigs are running. All Gu with ARB lockers and cryo'd axles and CV's and the usual housing mods. I am running a 12" chev pressure plate and a custom unsprung brass button ZGrip clutch plate from Textralia but if I wind up ...

Thanks Mate, I still have plenty of ideas floating around; I just have to heal up a bit more so I can start working on them.

I'm not defending the above post BUT did you not call Steve's "Crappy" before Mitch even said anything? You could have started a thread about fuel systems? You could have Pm's Steve. You haven't posted any pics like asked in the title. From earlier in the thread - Hi Steven Why would you want to ...

Funny thin about your comment Steve I was going to write the exactly same thing. Either put up pics with some specs or shut up!!!!! I could join this little penile extension battle by saying things like so what I run an rb30 turbo and it is better than ford or holden but I don't give a crap. I want ...

Guys how about starting a thread elsewhere so you don't continue to hijack Mitch's thread. He's trying to get some ideas on which way he wants to go with his comp truck build, not watching you guys in a p!ss!ng contest. Keep it on track so he can get some good info for his question. Cheers Steve I ...

440BB Are you reading the posts properly? I said my engine is blown, however it would easily do 700fwhp N/A. It has a lot more power than 700fwhp blown; my unopened 5.7 ls1 with a mild cam had 650fwhp blown. Check out this link it is a LS 416ci and it does 714fwhp N/A and it is a lot smaller than ...

This is the only video I have and its with the old ls1.
Dont have any up to date ones.

Check my signature mate my engine is blown, so different cam specs to N/A and compression.
Do some research on the forums I mentioned and you will see the proven potential of dozens of different LS/LSX combinations.
To compare a big block to an LSX is like comparing apples to oranges.

Yep Bowtie on the back of the gq and proud of it and a whole lot of power to burn. heheh :armsup: :armsup: Looks like its a race then stephanie :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: On a serious note if anyone has any questions or thoughts about using an LS or LSX engine do some research on ls1tech or ...

Hi Steven Why would you want to run a crappy Ford when you can run an LSX more reliably and with more HP and torque to boot. Probably cheaper as well. I like to be a little different and my early background was building fords so I'm familiar with ford V8s and they are much cheaper to buy and build ...

Hi Steven
Why would you want to run a crappy Ford when you can run an LSX more reliably and with more HP and torque to boot.
Probably cheaper as well.

The current owner didn't build the engine mate . The previous owner had it built. when i see the current owner I'll ask for further info, but if you are keen I would go straight to crankshaft re builders. They may have improved the machining process they previously used as this engine was done many ...

I'm not sure mate. You would be better off ringing them. If you get stuck I know the owner of this engine and he has all of the specs, so I could ask him.

been done before
try crank shaft rebuilders. http://www.crankshaftrebuilders.com.au/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;. Done one many years ago for a safari race car. gq patrol. tb42 stroked it out to about 4.8l.

Doesn't matter how much power you have once you have done a v8 conversion, you will be looking for more before to long. Hmmmm I better start cracking on my new 408ci ls1 stroker and bigger blower. 500rwkw would be nice.

All fixed
Just replaced the pads with new ones. Old ones still had plenty of meat but they must have been a bit glazed.

Cheers

Hello guys I have just put a 1999 GU 2.8 wagon front axle assembly and brakes into my 92 GQ Ute. The brakes now have a very hard pedal feel and braking is now worse than the GQ brakes. My question is, do I have to change the master cylinder or brake booster to match the GU front brake calipers?? or ...

Hi All, I've got a GU with an LS1 that i'm taking over the pits for WA rego, I took the lift out to get it passed over here and now the exhaust hits on the front tailshaft. I've pulled the shaft out at the moment, but at stock height there is very little to no room for the 2.5'' pipe off the marks ...

Yea mate "typo" 30-40L per 100km.

ls1 5.7L 30km per litre on a good day and 40+ on a bad day.

Edit: "Typo" should read 30L per 100km on a good day and 40+ on a bad day,

Just use the 044 mate. It works on my blown LS1 Patrol, with 365rwkw and it is working for every one else that is using one on an LS1, no matter what vehicle its in.
Do some research on:
