4 to 3.5 " for clearances.. Might have to cut quite abit of the bonnet for the mild snorkelling..

2,3 and 4 done

Last time we push this beast😬 She looking different nowdays. The semi chisel contours of the 36 feeling more defined...like shes finally almost ready, stanced, not for low'ness, but for whats under her hood...eagerly awaiting to be unleashed!! And those 3.5s look mental from a distance.....like..."look at this POSER"😂😂

They grind your cams and supply the rest brru.

Such an enjoyable & pleasing part of the build....!!!🤗🤗🤗😎😎😎😎 Have to raise the gearbox and lower the driveshaft center bearing to align the driveshaft coupling to flange. Clearances are so sweet btw!!! Bled the clutch. My first thoughts were I would have to change the master to accomodate the V8 pressure plate...but nah. Steerling Brake advised the 3/4 bore from the e36 master would work...and....shes has a soft az paddle🤗🤗🤗 Have to get and fit the O2 sensors to the exhaust and prep and spray. Oh yea...to tidy up that rear mount of muffler. ..looks rough. Will shift it to the upper so wont be visible. 20210208_085712_1.mp4

Freakin brake line leaked😤😤. Fitting wrong and i never flare the end enough. First time did that alone during first lockdown......anyway...spaced the muddha and all good. ...will make a new line when I pull the motor out after cert. Franklin cams, called them today for a quote for both V8s. Said the L76 in the Ute, they get around 350-370 atw. My L98...last guy got 400kw(seems way too high) atw...but running 380 to be safe with a mental Port & polish on heads, cam, gears, chain, rods, lifters, springs. .....and I got the long tube headers with dual 3 inch all the freaking way baybear... Even 375kws n/a atw in 1200 kgs..yeahboi!!!
