They are THE ones to go to for Whipples.

They would have to be the most professional team in the Commodore business.

Peter Starr is the consumate professional.

Aaaahh, OK... Just spoke to star, thanks Bass.

G & D is the owner of the Monaro, who is an ex employee of starr. Star are the Whipple distributors for Australia/Victoria... Going to see star this avo!

You got it, Matt used to work for Starr, but then went accross to G & D and finished off the Monaro Project. G & D have now set up the car for the 1/4. It still uses the 6 speed and is currently the fastest LS1 in Australia.

Yeah it was stolen after a dyno comp for the Ford v's Holden show last year in Perth. I guess they knew which workshop it was being garaged at. No they never got it back.

This is his second yellow monaro and its built even quicker than the first one.

Well Thanks for the help guys, I went and met up with Peter at Starr Performance. Had a chat about slapping on 2 Whipple Superchargers to the Mercury Motors, and just waiting for Mr Whipple from the US to work out a few things for us. Whilst I was there Peter took me out for a burl in (~I think his wifes car) those new Holden Station wagons with 4WD, this has a V8 with a Whipple supercharger, I must say thing went OK, but it's hard to impress me when you compare it the GTR, but I still reckon the E55 goes harder. What impressed me the most was the sound, it was awesome, I mean the Supercharger on the E55 is slighty audible but nothing like the Whipple, it was like having to little kids under the bonnet and as soon as you boot it, they screamed loud and hard... "Imagine having two of those on the boat??" he said. I couldn't get the smile of my face.

    • Robertson was a Canadian inventor, and it absolutely reigns supreme here. 95% of our screws are Roberston. It's literally the only option you can buy off store shelves. What would it have lost out too? I believe it's also very popular in the US.  My reference to imperial was pointed to both NPT and BSP. 
    • No. BSP lost to the cultural/technical imperialism of living next to Trumpistan. Face it, Robertson screws were better and still pretty much lost out to the yank stuff. The Europeans hate the Brits and they don't use NPT. NPT is just as "imperial" as BSP is, being based on those useless inch thingos. Just done differently. 
    • I live in Quebec. Our license plate slogan is "Je me souviens" Translated is "We will remember" as a reminder to when England conquered us and that we must never forget what they did. Long story short, BSP is unheard of here due to being an English design. I'm surprised our nazi anti english government office the OQLF hasn't kicked in my door yet just talking about it, yet alone imperial anything.       
    • Thanks for that! I did a quick Google search looked up some of hydaulic stores and didn't see it listed on the website, I'll give them a ring. Also found out later that I can buy 2 oem bleeder bolts for 10 bux and come with the washer which I might do so I don't waste the money it costs in petrol to find 2 washers (already did that lol). The old copper washes look in good nick, I drove it after taking it off and putting it back on and didn't see any  Part number here for reference if anyone needs: 14053-42L0A
