    I agree 100%. People only flocked to the Edelbrocks because it was the new thing and a little cheaper. I've already had two go back to Edelbrock. You get what you pay for.

    On another note. I wish companies would stop throwing around the word "Supercar", this is far from it
    Winning may not be everything, but its still better than losing

    I don't know you. I don't know what have done. If you are looking to talk up a race for 3 hours, I can tell you I don't have the time. But what I do have are a very particular set of parts; parts I have acquired over a very long career. Parts that make me a nightmare for people like you. If you go home, that'll be the end of it. I will not look for you, I will not punk you. But if you don't, I will punk you, I will race you, and I will embarrass you.

    Holden don't fit anything larger than 6.0 to their Australian domestic cars.

    HSV use LS3 and did use LS7.

    It's a 6.0 V8, manual trans....so it's an L98 (like an L76 but with no AFM).

    Actually, all the HSV models use the LS3 (6.2L) that's in the GXP. Also, the HSV W427 uses what the name states as the donk.

    BUT MAN - that WP is awesome!

    Huh? It sounds like you're disagreeing with Paul but what you state is pretty much exactly what he said. HSV uses the LS3, and they did use the LS7 back when they made the W427, but neither of them are used in the Walkinshaw that this year old thread is about.

    Eh? Paul was stating that HOLDEN uses nothing bigger than a 6.0L motor in it's vehicles, and that this Walkinshaw kit is based on an SS-V. HSV is another thing entirely in this picture.

    Did you see how they routed the heater hoses? All that money and no leather seats? I'll just take the suspension and brakes.
