Sounds awesome and looks like bags of fun!! You must be stoked Gordo  

Were there any Porkas that could keep you honest on the day?

it looks like some were quick but not as confident through the corners. 

Yer spot on Cozza. A lot of the Porsche guys are gentlemen racers and gave me plenty of room.    great cars straight from factory. I’m sure with committed drivers I would be moving over for them. I was third fastest out of 140 cars. One guy in a GT3RS was 5 seconds quicker.  Was so much fun.

PS. No LS pistons where used . (no motor blow ups this year )

Looking good Gordo 

Thanks Bruce. I’ve gone for the twin spark trophies this year. LoL

Trophies under way

Hi Guys. So this will be going ahead on the Sunday 17th of January. Now I’m on holidays it will give me some time to make a few trophies for the trophie hunters. There’s plenty of shade around if it’s hot and the grass is still green atm.

Could be a good time of year to have it as some might still be on holidays 

So stay safe and hope to see you all next year.

So the LS is going and I’m loving the extra power. Had a few track days now, Nov and Dec 2020. Still getting used to the power and gearbox. The gear ratios aren’t ideal , but with lots of taqué you car get around it. The last run this year was at Phillip Island. Where else haha.  Was a Porsche and msca combined club day. Take a look at some of my in car video. The car always handled quite well. But the extra power takes it to the next level. And the sound is awesome.

Ok, looks like We can only have 15 max out side. And that’s not going to work. 

So let’s postpone the event to January. Sunday the 17th. Still with fingers crossed. Sorry for any inconvenience .

Hopefully by then 50 can be a realistic number.

Hopefully tomorrow’s Covid up date will let us have 50 people out side. 

Thats a good number for us..Fingers crossed.

Sump Guard and fuel regulator. 

So I thought reading though some threads it’s hard to put it all into perspective what’s going on.

 A few short videos may make it easier to see what’s going on. So I’ll do my very amateur best to put some together.

First one while it’s on the hoist ,  is what’s been done down under (underneath)

Well it's taken some work. I was very nervous with the first start up close. Having put many hours hand building the motor all I wanted was oil pressure and for it to run.

What a great day it's been in lockdown.

What headers did you go with?

Page 12.  Read from there.   I recon I’ve covered most of what you are asking.

Well I finally mounted the motor and gear box this weekend.. That’s  probably the easiest part.  I spent a lot of time putting the wiring harness and all plugins in the best possible positions. The headers as you can imagine take up a lot of engine bay room and some wiring is difficult to run.  The next couple of weeks I’ll try and fit up tail shaft,  exhaust system,  steering column and all the other accessories.

Hi guys. Some of you may remember Mallory from the Xmas bbq. Mallory and her partner Jay are good friends of mine. Both into cars and car events I invited them to join us. They arrived in Her beautiful Corvette.Mallory was taking heaps of pics and Video of our event and put together this video. Check it out and some of her other videos on you tube.

After waiting for a new spigot bearing I installed the fly wheel, clutch and gearbox today

It's been awhile. Finally finished the head's. I estimate about 70 hours. Fingers crossed they work. I made myself a tool to install the valve's. Made it much easier. So the motor is back together.

What a good turnout. 9 cars and the weather was perfect. We saw lots of other car groups. Thanks to all the guys great chatting with you all at the Marysville Bakery.

Drive days are back if anyone turns up.    

Hahaha. What a great title.

Joël and I are in 100%.  I have a roof and  windscreen wipers. Bring it on. Farther and son , first drive day.
