Hi Lads,
i want to start on my new project..but i want sort a few things out first.
Its a driving ej ute, 202, 5 speed celica box, disc brake front end. 15inch simmonds wheels with adaptor plate on discs. Has an extra i.d. tag 80455. I think this was the engineer tag for the motor, and front end?
I am in Victoria
What i want to do is.
1/ change it to a v8, not sure if a chev or holden motor, with a auto tranny to suit.
2/ Put on a set of American racing mags. 13" or 14"
3/ what are the legal requirements for the set up
4/ What will i have to do to set it up for the v8
thats all i can think of at this stage
cheers....ed

You can also fit injected 5.0L Holden V8. I have seen a few of these fitted with the extractors sitting within the chassis rails as opposed to putting the extractors through the inner guards. Here for kits info http://www.v6conversions.com.au/
