Aaron,

Thinking of something I may be doing in the near(ish) future, who would you recommend locally to redrill some rotors. Will need to redrill a 5 stud rotor to a 4 stud. Thanks in advance :)

I'm using XB hubs on Starion spindles. Works nicely. Mine cop a flogging on the track too so they're plenty good enough.

If I were to do it again though, I'd go a different way and try for something lighter. XB gear isn't light.

Normally I get Matt @ Mr Enforcer in Chipping Norton to make/modify things like this. Has done a few sets of rotors for me over the years.

Got stuck back into it today. Engine bay is now ready for dummy engine fitting and fab work/mock up.

Big thanks to Pete (tomsun) for the motorvation and help. Wouldnt have been able to get as much done with out you help!

Getting a big white board (awesome idea dude)

I'm thinking:

Tailshaft out
Doors off
Hatch off

and

Dry Ice the sound deadening................

Transmission options

Ford C4
Powerglide
Turbo 350

What is cheaper to buy and modify later?

Could make adapter plate like this or just import one?

C4 would be the 1st option. Can get a shitter casing to use for mock up.

And I bought a 90cm x 60cm white board today.

That wouldn't bolt up to a VR4 block would it?

Don't think so, Pete...but couldnt be that hard to adapt...Dave?

Aaron, I don't have one lying around, but I can get one for you ex-Japan ;)

widey auto = Jatco 4N71B, same as what hi-power VL turbo guys use, KEAS autos do upgrades for them, piss off the VR4 block and use a 4G64 van 6 bolt block, you can always do a 2.1 destroker with it if u want revs..

or you could run it on the VR4 block with an adapter plate and spacer or custom flex plate....

easy...

No need to destroke when a 2 liter will rev to 10k without much trouble.
