been done. Huddy had one in his GQ shorty, so the rumore goes. Seen the car just havn't seen under the bonnet. Have also heard of somone putting a GU4.8 into a GQ shorty and the plan was to turbo and intercool it. :armsup: :armsup:

Isn't the 4.5 just a stroked 4.2???? why would you bother.....

And I believe Huddy wasn't real happy with the performance, better now apparantly......

I have also heard rumours of a cetain turbo workshop building a new bigger turbo 6 for their shorty...... hence drafty and co scoring the old motor.....

And score we did big time, that motor goes like you wouldnt believe. :D

Mark is going to do a 4.5 by the sounds of things and Birdy a 4.8 rumour has it. Both cars are completely stripped and being rebuilt but Mark will not be entering the new truck in OBC 2004, still to much to do he reckons.

yeah i have heard that too about the 4.5, although i havent driven one yet! Same bellhousing i am told. Maybe I might try a different cam to boost up the TB4.2.
