Everyone Joe, is currently flat out working, he is also working on this project of his and will release the pricing when its all finalised and he is ready. The testing was delayed when a test vehicle was set on fire, this compounded by Joes work load with long term jobs is not going to have this ready for you all tomorrow, just have some patience ppl, it is coming and will be a nice full unit ready bolt in and fly...

Damn if i lived in sydney id offer my help to joe. But A) i'm not fully qaulified, and B) i dont live in sydney.
Keeping an eye on this as i'm in the same situation as frank need a new motor and sqauring up my possibilities. Sounds like a good package, and i can see joe getting alot of business from it.

has anyone thought that if u want capacity then buy a 5.0lt
i love the idea of an even bigger 6 but i think the price is going to be prohibitive...

i dont think a 5.0lt will have the same torque or power band as the stroked 4.0lt

I had an XC with a 302C with some small mods, then a 265 Hemi in my Valiant, lets just say there was no comparison despite having 2 cylinders less and only a single spinner diff - both were 4 speed manual utes of similair years. |

Triple webbers would of been awsome once set up right - they're so bloody expensive these days - I looked for a set but half the time they were asking around 3 grand! |
