What motor are you fitting ?

What vehicle is it going into ?

What headers are being used ?

guessing it will be some form of chev holdon garbage. as I think it is supposed to say HSV headers.

hq sump and HSV headers = injected ( or otherwise) turbo pattern 5.0 holdenmotor.

there was a mention of using another model header to clear the slave on here not to long ago.

you can get flexible dipstick tubes for holden motors.

you can run an origional holden cable adapted at the firewall.

ok guys nother arvo of playing,

what i done was cut the bottom radiator neck at the weld, then cut a bit more of the neck peive to get the right angle and welded it back on
then used the gq diesel top hose.

hope this helps anyone doing the conversion.
