Strangest looking grey motor I have ever seen  :) :) :)

Ute looks fantastic Pete, really well done and credit to you for the time, effort and patience required.

Steering all fitted very straight forward.
Column appears a little long but will not know until seat is fitted.
Im having the same issues as JBs v6 conversions front end coils are bound bad the springs are way too soft.
I thought being so much lighter they would be fine but they aren't.
So ryan at united speed shop got me a set of 350lb ones.
As jb stated they were marked as 250 but when tested they were 200lb.
Love the stance.
And even with it real low the tyres still clear the guard.

Well it's been ages covered up so time to start tinkering on the ute.
The FE is nearlly wired so hopefully some dyno time next week to run the engine in and get some figures then back full steam into the ute.
How things snowball.
Fitted injector rails and throttle body.
Also distributor ect.

HI Pete   Hows things..?  I have seen a little less posts since you have your wagon and van mobile. Which I hope you enjoying. I love the ute that old grey motor looks pretty as a picture. Can not wait for this one to complete..  Hope you well and hope to hear from ya soon.

Between Family life and work and winter i barely get out of to the shed of late.


We tried firing the FE last weekend everything worked great except the coils were wired arse about  ::) wasnt me but a valuable lesson 6 new plugs needed hopefully it is all back together in a few weeks.

I have  been fiddling on little bits of the ute.

I drive the wagon most weekends re wired the heater so it actually blows air now a lot better. the previous owner must of froze ..

It's been a while since I logged on so it looks like a lot of progress to me. The colour is very cool and the wheels too.

Working on carpet makes winter time more bearable
