The good ol' 225 Centura!!!!! :D

225 - are you sure?

By the time the centura was in production (1975 -1977) the only straight motors being made by chrysler Australia were the 215, 245 and 265( the latter was never officially available in the centura)

The 225 was the stant 6 that was very popular from the R series through to the VG

However the 215 and 245 have the same size block as the 265, and it is literally a 1hr job to drop a 265 motor in (RT spec or otherwise) then you had a rocket that could spin wheels on demand

(In a past life I was the president of the Chrysler Car Club - and still have a soft spot for them)

Iv been told you can get defected in your own drive way is this true?

My understanding is that you can not be defected in your driveway unless the police are given permission or have a warrent.

You are on private property (yours) and there are specific conditions police need to observe prior to entry. Whilst this could stop them giving you a defect I dont think it stops them issuing an infringement notice or parking at the end of your driveway until you pull out.

If they ask you "Is that your car, and can we have a look?" and you say "yes", then they have the authority to issue a defect.

Yes my bad as they say.. I thought about it after and realised 4ltrs is actually a 245. :D

Steve; I'm hitting the sack for the night. Up early to give the old man a hand putting up his house (Steel framing).

i thought only traffic police can issue traffic offences/defects ect?

you willing to drive sideways infront of one of those CSI staionwagons with the ladders on top to test ur theory :D

they might not have the knowledge to defect u, but they certainly can fine you

commodores suck

i now have a nice bottom end rattle (started out 3000rpm and over, now its on idle too)

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
