Platinum - Coffee table position is already taken up by a genIII block from a 300kw senator:

I'm yet to get some rods/pistons for it - the glass is a little unstable atm lol.
Stix - Sorry man, they're both old leaky EB motors....
JamesB - LOL! I'd love to build one of those big fuckers. Throwing a motor a few hundred meters would be hilarious.
ALLMTR - No...but do you want some spare engines? :D
Looks like I'll give ebay a go.Originally posted by jmacBut on seatbelts - I don't think they should be mandatory for adults, but for under 18s. I reckon make them mandatory up till then, and provide plenty of graphic evidence supporting their use to school age children, and then if they hit adulthood and don't choose to wear them, think of the future without these fucken idiots around...

If they fitted the Weber 40 IDL 3C1 carburettors that they used on the Lamborghini Miuras, then they'd have a self igniting barbeque.Originally posted by xwgasaxe View PostThat Chebby bbq should have a Webber on it,
Would that make it a Webber then?James

Nothing as exciting as that...
The owner complained of a tapping noise in the motor. The case-hardening on one of the roller followers had failed, damaging the cam lobe (or vice-versa) and little bits of hardened steel got pumped round the motor - it fuct everything - bores, bearings, oil pump, crank, cam etc etc.
The customer got a new bottom end under warranty, the heads were still ok.
The other bits could probably have been repaired with a hone and some linishing etc, but it costs Holden less to supply a new bottom end than to pay someone locally to make it good again, and it keeps the customer happy.Originally posted by jmacBut on seatbelts - I don't think they should be mandatory for adults, but for under 18s.
