They are extremely reliable, the only downside is the fuel consumption
I know a guy that has one behind a N/A LS1 and he gives it hard time with no issues. And his a standard box. So upgrade the valve body and she should be good
Great day and the new Superior hybrid superflex arms work a treat. So smooth on the beach. As you can see by how much the camera was moving!! But when you spend close to 6k on a complete new...
Click on the pic, there should be a few vids of my latest tripvup the beach with a few LS patrols

Nice results mate, Are you just running a pod filter or do you have a airbox? Do you intend on running it via a snorkel. Getting air down a snorkel fast enough is the issue I have with my LS.

I agree with all that drop boxes are the way to go but from memory they are not legal. In QLD anyway. Something to think about when dealing with insurance if the event ever come about.
Absolutely mate, she goes well now.

Hey mate, Have you had it tuned?
Problem solved!!! It was the IAC Valve. It was dirty and sticking when the engine got hot. Cleaned it and the noise has gone.
Thanks for all your input guys, I appreciate it

I pulled the starter out and have found some marks on the heat shields where the exhaust has rubbed them, so I'll modify them to rule them out. I'm sceptical in regards to it having something to do...
Donor car did have 214 on it but it come up trumps with sump off inspection.

Auto. The same box is behind it except its been rebuilt. No noise at idle, no noise when cruising, no continuous noise when under load. It only happens briefly when you quickly tap the accelerator.

It runs perfectly. It only happens in gear under a little to alot of load. you can free rev it and you will never hear it. The noise you hear is as long as it goes for, so its not continuous. It...

First tank down and WOW what result, Nissan 4.5L = 25Lph - Holden 5.7L = 17.65Lph. That fuel consumption is from it untuned so hopefully I'll get some better figures now it has been tuned.
Cheers...
