Good to hear Mark. Wish my coolant leak was as easy, and cheap.

Good to hear Mark. Wish my coolant leak was as easy, and cheap.
Finally got the daily driver back on the road. Bloody repco gave us the wrong Vrs kit (incorrect rocker cover gasket) and wouldn't exchange as it was part of a kit.
Small fortune on gaskets (double what I spent on head/radiator) but is back in the road...
Got Chase my Blue Heeler back today after running away due to the storms on Wednesday, had traveled 8+kms in one afternoon.
One very tied pup at home now, registered, chipped, immunised, registration tag, name and phone number tag, new collar, new toy...............and GROUNDED

Happy as my son won his first fight [boxing] only 3 rounds but boy do you get worried
but all good
having the grandkids arrive for a 3 day visit to nanny's and poppy's house...
Found out on friday that my block, cam and crank are all A OK
The cam and crank are just going to be linished, that means there is basically no wear so factory spec bearings can be used,
Although it only has 302 thousand km on it, to still have cross hatching on the bores, no wear on the valve train, crank and cam still within factory spec, it has had a lifetime of good clean oil and good oil pressure. The little bit of wear on the big ends just before top dead center when it fires and piston damage is all related to lots of boost.
just watched the replay of Wales beating South Africa...... good stuff boyos
Seeing the new toy getting painted.
What have you got now?
Knowing Kat it is probably a big V8 Convertible (Yank Tank)
All will be revealed in due course !!Quote:

Hard to keep from grinning - have just driven the most powerful car I’ve ever driven for about 120kms. <grin> Don’t know all the details, but it sounds really nice, <grin> & goes like the proverbial sh*t off a shovel. <grin again>. It’s a 2009 Holden SS ute with a V8 Chevy motor, fully chipped & tuned & only has 35,000kms on it. Just the noise it makes on idle is really sweet. Sits on the legal limit at around 1600rpm but kick it down a couple of gears (it’s an auto) & it just flys, & sounds wonderful doing so. <More big grins>. I was doing a mate a favour relocating the vehicle for him so was pretty conservative in my driving. This car would break traction on command but I didn’t try. I did have to work hard at not making myself a target for a speeding fine, so used the cruise control much of the time. However when a d*ckhead decided to sit behind me right up my klacker at 103kph I couldn’t resist pushing the go pedal a little more. <grin grin grin>. The motor howled as it changed down a couple of gears, the distance between him & I rapidly widened as I was pushed back into my seat. In what seemed like just an instant I was just a tad short of 170kph & it felt like there was plenty more there. Pity I have to give it back. It’ll be up for sale soon, but I’m way too sensible for such a machine.
