Why didn't I just get another stock short and chuck my top end on it???

347 is built and in a customer's car, ready to fire up in the next few days.

YEAH NAH is undergoing a BA K-frame conversion, will get an AU solid axle and a completely different engine combo now. I'll be back with another update in about a year! Hopefully she'll be running by then.

Thread Bump!

I am about to start basically the same build on an Auto EB Fairmont in Perth.

Your build thread had me on the edge of my seat through the trials and tribulations of getting it right and finishing up with your results which are exactly what I am after.

Going to go the "Stage 2" trick flow top end kit from LMR, with BBK MAF, 24lbs injectors, 155lph FP, 70mm TB, FPR and under drives, defillipo from headers back, MSD Ignition kit, twEECer ecu and XFT or street built to slap it all together and give it a tune

Will probably run a 3.9 diff ratio

End goal is a 12sec capable sunday cruiser, GTR is for racing 8-)

Would love to hear if you have any lessons learnt from the top end kit so I don't make the same mistakes.
