Bumped into Steve Muller today and two of his friends..sorry cant remember your forum names...anyway took one for a spin and on the hard change(bit flat) into second it wheel spun for a second then bang...rattle, rattle. Second is no longer...wll be calling Albins tomorrow for a new set of gears....with a tall 4th for the snow trips this year. Clutch had started to slip a little anyway and the new motor can now go in......cant wait!

Did I???? I will have to have a look.

Motor and box out this afternoon, dropped it and another one over to Steve Natolis house..where he is going to swap the 3rd/4th and super diff into another stock box I had. Said I can pick up tomorrow arvo...sweet.

It is a single side plate 3.88r&p. I have been thrashing the life out of the car, I will have to just soften the grab to second....off to the drags in a week or so!

The box, motor is back in, although ran out of time at 3.30am. had to put back in old motor, as the new motor has a different intake manifold and i decided to make raiser plates to adapt the old manifold. they are 32mm thick alloy plate with the intakes hand ported. needless to say it took me more than a day to complete one, and as I need the car back, and still need to weld up a new short sump, new stainless exhaust and possibly a custom plenum chamber and bigger throttle body....the old motor will be fine.
