I know where your going with that pete. Just because i think it should have an eight doesnt mean yours is not going to go like the clappers. Ive been in some quick cars but i think yours is going to well and truly be up there. By the way mate i was not bagging your ride. Oh and i have a column shift. Bit hard to change quick (haha). Its one tuff machine mate. brett

Say if a 2j just magically appeared boosted to 22 psi (adjustable) or some shit, would you change the engine or would you still stay rb26. Reason for my question is, did you think it would be a pain mainly cos of the booster and exhaust being on the wrong side? Serious question requiring a serious answer, so if your pissed can u answer in the morning  ;D

I was trying for a bite ;D
I like the sound of the 8s it will be interesting to see what the weight comparison s are tho. I think they wil be similar I know a lot of the parts are lighter but theres so much crap involved it might just get me back up there.
I would not go to this extent again. a 8 even with a low blow charger or something would look so much tidier in there.
As for your question dean its 351am I have been up since 3am with little one . A 2j will need reccesing into firewall heavily  they are really long a mate has one in a ej van very very tight. But anything will fit just keep cutting as the chop shop says.

Pete doesn't like reds or V6's...he doesn't mention greys......he knows the true power & torque of the mighty grey will conquer all :P

[FCRB26]

There,s something about a LS1 grey motors hear them growl..


(didnt want to get accused of chopping up 4 stock fe  fc,s 3 is enough..)

Car looks great, Pete.

I remember when I first saw a Street Machine spread of Fitzy's second generation FC. It had a huge impact on me; the colour, the stance, the detail, the engineering. It was just right. From that moment on I knew that I wanted an FC. I can't help but think that your build will do the same for many others what Fitzy's car did for me, and introduce young people to a new generation of old Holdens.

Top stuff  8)

That car when it was blue and satnav fc and 1badfc in newcastle made me love em so much. (6 fe fcs here)

[fe350chev]

And u reckon I am a Boonie  :D Pete, I think josh is calling us old..what does he mean by inspiring the younger generation. A lot of younger guys are doing the classic jap or aussie thang.

[FCRB26]

You should see round town red and green p platers in tons of old holdens stockies modified ones . Love it..

[fe350chev]

I think in the shitty a lot of young blokes don't do much but Xbox..no time, money or room.
