ok well thankyou for that and i didnt realise that they give u a certificate for the front end from caselmaine rod shop that would help alot, will lookforward to getting the catalog from the rod shop, and look forward to the chev going in....

cant wait

ahh ok so the chev is not that hard at all sounds like it will be easier than the 308 im in victoria so i think it will be ok, my other delemar is that the engineers will not give me a list of things to do, they said it will cost 400 dollar to check car and they will giv me  a list of what i havnt done then i will have to pay another 400 dollar on the next visit and hope that it passes thats a bit unfair...

hey there all just in prosess of buying a motor for my fc while im restoring it and canot decide whitch to convert it to? a chev 350 or a holden 308     does anyone know if the engineers require the same things done for both? also is one easier than the other to do? im really stuck at the moment the car already has a red 202 or may be 186 now. i was told it would have a hr front end to have that motor in it? will the v8s bolt up to that?     ive rung caselmaine rod shop and they want to sell me a hr front end for the convertion but if i already have one then is there a easyer way to modify it?

your thoughts and experience on this matter much apreciated

thanks regards mark
