Hodge's new 4.2

[Hodge]

All I can say is John wrote the bible for water cooled engines.
Its a shame no one has heard of him
Its about taking the hot spots away from the head and concentrating the heat around all cyclinders.
but enough on that it too hard to explain

I definitely know the name mate. I have been to Dale Pattersons V8 tunning shop in tulla many times and that name was very common, there mainly to do with water pumps ?

I was just looking at mine and i have studs on the lower housing...

Maybe it's something JPC does when building these? Mine definitely doesn't have them.

Put a set of new shoes on. Mickey Thompson P3's in 285/75/16 on a set of black rims. Also painted the rusty hubs as it looked bad with new rims on. Just have to fix the front hubs now looks pretty shit.

What's the wallet damage for a set of these monsters? I need a set ASAP!

Mate I honestly cannot remember, I'll have to find the receipt, as I got a whole lot of stuff in one go.... I'll have a rough guess @ around $340-ish a corner ??? Might be cheaper now, don't know.

Happy to report that it seems for now anyway, no more oil is showing at the engine/bellhousing sandwich. So fingers crossed it stays that way. Hopefully Mat was right and it was only residual oil from the oil and filter change...

Another little addition to the car I "impulse" scored from Mudski this morning was this setup. Perfect and exactly how I wanted my back setup. Just gotta carpet it and shes ready to go.

Good looking rig. Have the 3L and am keen to try a 4.2 as I hear they perform well, however, the 3L has not left me stranded yet, although lacks power on the highway
