Thanks,

Depending on the damage to the heads, the v8 is looking like a viable option.

Hi cromcruiser

Yeah, my auto is an A343H

Does the sump have to be handmade, or just modified?

With the Commy V6 into the Sunbird (not finished yet much to the missus dismay) the Commy sump has just been modified.

Do you know of anyone thats done this conversion?


Cheers

Thanks guys, I guess I have effectively tested one side, thats how the question came up, I'll check the other side on the weekend. Might drop the rear driveshaft rather that jacking the rear end up tho If it is working fine and it's just the way it came out of the factory, what are the options to ...

Hiya, I am looking at getting a 4x4 hack, rusty panels but good chassis, to cart stuff around our paddocks, preferably an SJ Suzuki (would fit my trailer) or maybe an old Hilux. I would also like to use it for 4x4 tracks, fun/club events, and later on a few competitions. I don't plan on having it ...

Hiya, Saw highway patrol a few weeks back, and a girl got done for no REG and no WOF and got pink stickered, she asked the cop about towing it and he said no, but when she asked about A-framing it, he say that was ok.
