Been a quiet year for me, new set of rims and only 4 road trips in the ute. Collapsed a couple of engine mounts which dropped the motor enough to puncture the air-con piping about 1600kms from home in the middle of summer. Blown a gearbox and some cv shafts, blew out the turbo side manifold gasket and looking at a new fuel system with the benefit of longer range for my trips and better suitability for racing. Got the second mod plate and engineers report for the 6 point cage and 4 point harness, car is all legal in the police state of QLD!!!! Just as well cause its a daily. Anyway pics......

HAHA! Seriously! A four door racer with a V8? I mean, I like GM, but I cant believe they made a four door car with power. Just like when Dodge came out with the four door charger! Heavy *** car that cant keep up! But hey, maybe that **** is aweaome over there! I just think its hilarious!

You must look past the little world you live in.
We have had Chev V8's in 4 door cars for almost 50 years !
Even back in the 70's we had a Holden Torana in a 2 door and 4 door version that weighed less then 3000 lbs with a V8.
Anyway more education time.
Have a look at this 4 door factory equipped Z06 LS7 engine in a Pontiac G8 that we have exclusive for Australia, it's called a HSV W427 !
