These photos were taken a while ago now ... i've been busy working, moving and i've been distracted by cars that go and i get to enjoy everyday

Yes the starter motor is less than 5 mm away from the steering but yes it fits

And the tunnel had to be bashed considerably to fit the new smaller powerglide (more so the huge trans shield over the top of it)

What's most impressive is seeing a VH engine actually clean for a change

Wouldn't the Gazelle be the same as the U.S. Pulsar? If so, I didin't think the Pulsar was rear wheel drive...

Aussie petrol heads unite!

Where's Ezekiel? Mate, I just stumbled across this thread today. So you scrapped the Gazelle option? What's it going into now?I'm doing this convert for a Z31.
