    If you're going to have an attitude like that, why bother posting ?


    OT: Since you'll be stretching the 5ltr to its final life going the 383, why not just drop in a LS2 ?

    Lol at someone who doesnt realise that auto's shift faster than manual's. If you're going to have an off tits car, you want a gearbox that can handle the power and esp if you're also going to be doing skids. All the top burnout cars run auto's.
    5k on an auto will make the fucker move rather quick.

    cammed up ls2+t56 for the win, would look tough with filter out the bonnet but dont know if its worth the harassment from the cops if its regularly street driven

    the money spent on working the 5lt would definitely be better invested in a LS1 or LS2, arnt they lighter as well?

    was this from bundy? if so i remember it from when i was up, dropped on its nuts on stockos with rear bumps removed, could hear it smackin chassis from miles away, looked cool though. oh and give us a yell if you wanna sell the m35 on the cheap, thinking i may need a spare at sometome after the build is done
    good luck with the build mate thumbsup.gif

    Believe me this actually happened, about a week after he posted this I saw it no bonnet no engine and panel beaters in East Bundaberg being preped, Haven't been there in a while so not sure how it turned out. Don't be a hater a lot of people don't use this site anymore because people like you are jerks.
