Ben , Steve the guy that runs the shop over here is the same guy that did my F100.
He is a very nice guy , but know how to charge.
By the way Sonny did a L76 with only a cam and got 315 RWKW. (422 rwhp)
Sorry Ford boys but thats some good power from very little cash.
I cant wait for my one to arrive this week.
All i need to do now is keep the bloody thing on the road and in a straight line.

Slowy, you're putting in a L76?.

Be great to get your opinion as to the difference between your old engine and the L76.

If there is any difference that is.

Cheers

And that "little cash" just got less. As posted on the L76 ebay thread, Holmart have the L76 for $4500 inc GST.

That is just an amazing price for a 6Ltr, all alloy engine with excellent heads.

That $2000.00 reduction will go a long way to a better cam and springs.

Even if these $4500.00 Engines were " a little loose" they sure would be a great starting point for a nice stroker and let's say 500hp.

Paul,

I was pretty impressed with those guys, they warmed the cars up well, checked oil etc before a power run.

When it comes down to LS engines I think it comes down to Sam's, Marrano's and Castle Hill Exhaust.

Ben
