HQ

Hello All,

I have been asked a question about what model of Stromberg carburettor was fitted to the HQ Holden 130 cubic inch motors that were made for export to South Africa?

Does anyone know which 23-xxxx number would have appeared on the float chamber? Also what base would have been fitted?

Have a good weekend!

Kind Regards
Lionel

Hello i am after someone who has the under dash vent tubes for a HQ Statesman. I need the center distribution box and the pipe across to the drivers air vent. I just want to borrow them to make a fibreglass mould. As they are so hard to find . I had a set i lost in a business closure. It makes it hard. Any help appreciated.

Hi Guys.
My Hq Premier Wagon is about to be painted.
Need complete rubber kit. Are they all the same or are some better than others? Thanks.

Anyone know of any old holden grave yards, particularly in nsw? Or back yard hoarders? Cars in paddocks?

Hey having a pretty hard time working out what's wrong with my hq ute...
I had it sit for a while when I did some painting and rust work, it ran fine before that.
But now the revs just climb up and down when idling and if I pull the throttle on it dies?
I've put a reconditioned carby on, new head and manifolds gaskets, checked the fuel pump, checked the point gaps, it's got plenty of fuel.
Anyone had a similar issue? I'm all out of ideas on how to fix this one... I jut want to drive my old ute again :(

I'll be watching this one.

The front left indicator isn't receiving enough power to operate if any at all, I hook it up to the right side as works perfectly, so I'm guessing something is going on with the wiring

Hi, I work in a panel shop and am very weary of what i'm handling, I was taking off the bonnet hood lining off a HQ and I asked my boss if it was made out of anything dangerous such as (Asbestos) can someone fill me in on some information, thanks!

P.S the Hood liner was a dark blackish colour, thanks!

Look exactly like that picture below, (not actual picture)

Hey guys

Im looking at a hq sedan.

And im wanting to put my turbo 408 ls motor into it.

From what ive read theres the weight x 3.0 rule to designate maximum engine size.

So if this is true your basicly limited to a turbo thong clapper 253.

So how are guys puting blown big blocks in ther HQs ect. And getting rego.

Can an engineer aprove somthing larger tban what those guidelines state?

Also anyone know of any weld in chassis kits for the hqs to help stiffen them up a bit.

Regards

Simon
