Hey welcome to the site and nice car...I've been to Australia a few times myself, my brother lives on the Gold Coast. Matter of fact heading there in Feb for 3 weeks. I know Aussies love their cars, the rivalry between Holden(GM) and Ford is pretty big down there. My brother drives a souped up Ford Ute (been trying to talk sense to him but he doesn't listen). Anyway welcome and Cheers.

I only had the cam installed just over a week ago. I had a run at the drags, but my stock clutch slipped badly in 2nd and 3rd then refused to give me 4th! I will be fitting a better clutch soon, then I expect mid to low 12's on street tyres.
