Boom, i have had some hot 6's
the problem i found (especially with Toyota gearboxes behind them) is that the clutch gives up.
you may have to go for a triple plate clutch as Peter said.
its hard to get all that power thru a std. holden 6 clutch

Old holdens brought on the spot, quick decision, cash paid.

oh, peter i'm not quite sure what CFM the throttlebody will be yet. But yes it will be GRA gear.

also, a V8 aussie 4sp wouldn't be able to handle the power/torque will it? i was looking at the Nissan Stanza 5 speeds. How strong are they?

Hi boom.

A WB One-Tonner has a Blue motor.

I would go the auto as well, if you want reduced running costs & dont like pulling gearboxes in & out on a regular basis.

This has all been done many times before. I built a turbo Holden 6 back in the 7
