Twin Strombergs???

Hay there,

Dose anyone have anything to say about a Twin Stromberg set up on a 186? Just look at dressing the motor up and getting it recond' and just look at other carby options. I have had a 350 on a 186 and i am never doing it again!!

The Twin Strombergs look pretty neet but do they have any advantages? If so.... how much? And how much more fuel should i expect to use if i went doww that path???

Thanks all

KEYS WON'T TURN!!

Hey guys. I'm in a bit of a dilemma. I can't start up my HQ annymore. When I turn the keys it turns one click but it's stuck and won't even goto accessories. It just suddenly happened. I was driving around 10 minutes ago fine, but for some reason the keys won't turn past one click anymore. Very strange. I took the steering wheel off and it seems fine. And I don't wanna hotwire it to go for a drive everytime.
Has this happened to anyonoe else before?
Please help guys I have no idea what happened!

Cheers

Thermostat Housing 253 / 308

Hi, my questions is,

Are all thermostat housing the same for 253 / 308 ?

As in fitting to manifold .

I know some have two heat outlets. [ does that make a difference ]

but as long as the 253 and 308 have been around up to the last,

do they all fit the same.

Thanks for any help.

HG Disc Brakes

Hi all i've got a HG with disc brakes, just resentaly the brakes have been playing up.
When I brake they work fine at first with normal pressure apllied to the pedal but if I have to put any more pressure on the pedal it seems to loose booster power, the brake pedal gose solid.
Has any one had this problem or know what is going on. It was a reco booster and all brake system was reco to. All i can think is maybe the booster is going.

Thanks.

Bondy.

HJ,HX,HZ sports mirror, mirror adjustment??

I have fitted a pair of Holden sports mirrors onto my WB ute and they look great but the only problem I have is that when I close a door the mirror lens moves out of position and they need to be re-positioned every time, does anybody know how to tighten up the the mechanism that hold the mirror itself so that they will stay in position or atleast stop them from moving so much???

Cam Selection for 202 REd with triple Sidedraught Carbies?

Hi all,

I've got an LX torana with a 202 motor that i'm currently overhauling. Looking for a good cam selection for it, running the triple SU carbies. The carbies are 1-3/4" HS6 ones. The block's just been bored out 60 thou and i'm using ACL race flat-top pistons & JP helical timing gears. Block has also been decked, and valve relieved. I am using a new HEI ignition setup, and am running extractors. Gearbox wise i'm using an m20 4-speed with a h/duty clutch kit. Diff is a 3.08 banjo. The cylinder head is an old y/t one. Also has independant adjustable rockers.

Now I don't know much about cam selection, but I do know i'd want something that'd match the head, block and carbies.

Was thinking of a gtr xu-1 cam. That would be a good match for the triple carbies at least?

hydraulic clutch into HG

G'day everyone.

I have bought a second hand hydraluic clutch setup for my HG sedan. To my dissapointment the slave cylinder is worn and pretty much f*#@ed. I've ordered a new cylinder which should hopefully arrive tommorow..

I'm just curious as to whether I have the right setup going so far..
I orignially had a cable clutch setup on my Aussie four speed behind my 202... since then I have changed to a HG and got my hands on a bellhousing to suit the oringal rat trap clutch along with the clutch pedal and clutch fork assembly.

I have fitted the push rod style bellhousing to the four speed and bolted it to the 202..

best sound for a 202

hey guys im running a bored 202(208) with a stage 2 cam on my 1974 HJ tonner. at the moment it has extractors running to a 2 inch tailpipe and a stock muffler box. i was just wondering how to get the best sound out of her?

GTS Oil pressure gauge operating backwards

Ive recently got the freshly rebuilt 202 in my hz one tonner running. It has a HJ type GTS dash installed. The dash has been installed since there was last a running motor in it.
When the motor was first started the oil gauge appeared to be playing up, so to be on the safe side i removed the gauge sender and put a switch type one in with an indicator globe hooked up just to be sure the pump had primed correctly and the new engine had pressure. Once i was confident that was going to be ok i put the gauge type back in.

ATT ms.munro
