his new head is still being ported...no rush...these mega builds take time, a lot of care and also patience. Simon will have a good long engine to impress Santa with when he calls into the Buckley house this christmas.

Sorry Simon...i know you want pics...ive been very busy...will get some more up this weekend.

Tomei 270 deg 10.8mm cams and Tomei bronze guides are ordered and on their way...combined with a stage 2 port job this is going to be one awesome head.

whats the go with these double valve springs?

HAHAHAHA yeh that table cloth looks quite tough.

its cost me a fair bit round the 14 15k range... but dont 4get its the ducknuts of bits inluding being a stroker motor. its not just a rods and pistons build.

hows the build going?

just waiting on the head to be finished (something thats out of my control)

getting things done by others is an unfortunate reality for me as head porting is white mans magic that i don't have a clue about.

Simon has been very patient which makes it less stressful for all concerned.

wont be too much longer guys and it will be down to Godzilla Motorsport for tuning...then the streets of Hervey Bay will never be the same.

with the size housing ive got i cant see nemore then 620rwhp on98 pump .... safely.... but will be fairly responsive considering ive got a stroker bottom end largish cams and a nicely ported head.... should see full boost hopefully by 4.2 4.5 all the way to 9..... WOO

i know exactly what it will make...

a mess of his rear tyres!

BAHAHAHAH yeh i know this.... can hurt to try a few things and see how we go... might have to run sum semi slicks on the street. do a burnout b4 i leave the yard so i got grip hahahahaha

and belo i think the first time i hit boost in it i will be quite scared but im used to sliding around ive had abit of practice so we'll just see how it acts. im thinking diff may start to have issues.

    • If we're going after market gauges, I'm a big fan of Australian made... Get some RedArc!
    • Unless you're fortunate enough to buy a newer car, getting an older style plate to match your name/car is difficult because they've already been purchased.  Unlike other countries, personalised plates are locked to the country and not region, so there can't be multiple versions of the same plate but with a different area code.  Hope that helps
    • People use the numbers to make it look like letters to spell words/names, which is where the illegal spacing comes in. For example this GR Yaris  
    • Today's rock removal from my stock pile out the back into a 4m³ skip bin, I still have a bit to go, hopefully there's enough room in the skip bin, it will be close My daughter and her boy was coming on Sunday to help, but, I got possessed by demons and started work as soon as the bin arrived at 1230 today Lots and lots of barrow loads were achieved  Currently I'm sitting on the lounge drinking beer thinking of how I should have waited till Sunday for some help, tomorrow will be a day off, in saying this, my day off will involve prep and paint of my alloy coolant and PS tanks with wrinkle paint (Jackie is in Sydney till Sunday so the home oven will get a run curing the paint....LOL)
    • That's why I said it is a meaningless term. Because there is more than one meaning that people can apply to it. When we said "highflow", that is exactly what we mean, and exactly what is done. In a highflow, they take your housing and machine them out to take bigger wheels, have a better internal profile, etc etc, and fit a new core with the different/better/bigger wheels.
