Cheers Matty. I've been on the blower with Geoff a lot over the passed few months and he's got some great ideas that he's incorporated into his latest offerings. Can't wait to see this gear at full song.

Hey Trav.

Moving forward, yes. There yet, no.

Went and had a look at the head on Friday. It has been modified for larger intake and exhaust valves with new seats and a little extra porting to take advantage of the 2mm larger intake valves. Engine will get a dummy up next week to work out comp ratio (aiming for around 9:1).

The car is going in to RVO Automatics next week to begin the 4l65 conversion so that will take a little mucking around to get things to fit/work. We're going to get it working with the current 370rwkw standard engine/turbo setup to iron out any fitment issues etc. We'll get the converter re-stalled once the big-banger goes in.

All good. Getting closer and closer.
