shes toast.. been sold a lemon,yet again.. have the head skimmed, new composite gasket... and pooohs...started up fine, got up to temp and dropped the mains. so to cut my losses and rid myself of this giant headache im going to sell it as is. i have had enough of this game for now.. so if anyone who is wanting to get into the sport and isnt after a supermodel hotrod this could be a deal for a repower option.. bit bloody disappointing as i havent even turned a lap in the darned thing may strip a few bits off it to stash away for a rainy day, but the rest can go

well im glad to say the beast is all back together,with a new 350 holley and sounds bloody nice,sounds like it has unleashed a few more ponies from the bigger carby,it had a small holley similar to a carter carb off a hemi 6...not at all big enough... so shes all good to go minus a battery... who wants it?

The only way it will sell will be if it gets seen at the racetrack - heres hoping this weekend marks its debut!
And having seen the Hemi on trade me that went into it, I think it might just be a lot of fun - if it goes, we all hope it stays on the coast.
fingers crossed for the weather in the 'mouth and the 'port!

Sounds like you well and truly have lost the bug. Fingers crossed some local buys it and you look after them on the price like the sellers looked after you when you purchased.
all the best for the next trade, with any luck it will be a bit more fun than having a car in the shed.
