This is our test bed for experience in racing and tuning AussieSpeed Performance Parts We run a 250 6 cyl Ford Crossflow engine with an AussieSpeed AS0216 4brl intake and a double pumper carby, big hyd cam, high comp pushing down through a 4 speed stick to a Hilux diff. work as a guide for just about any 73-87 Chevy pickup with a small block. We had our Shop drag car that runs in Vintage Gas class, of which we have named ANGAS which is short for Anglia Gasser. Installing a cam while the engine is still in the truck can be a little bit of. Australian Nostalgia Racers put on the event in conjustion with the local Swan Hill Drag club members and it was a credit to all who were involved, I can tell you it is well worth the drive up there. What a venue this track is going to be as they complete the supporting facilites. The first big meeting had an enourmous turn out of cars, there was some serious race cars there representing all classes. Nostalgia drags were on last weekend at the newly constructed Swan Hill Dragway. So the lower arms and pan hard bar do the locating and the top arms have some give so they don't bind with the pan hard bar. It retains the original triangulated 4 bars however we run PU bushes in the bottom arms and ordinary rubber in the top arms.

Once the full wieght of the car is on, it will sit fairly level. The picture above is with the unit installed, keep in mind the car was just a shell so no weight was in it and the rear is sitting high. You see in a race car I can place the roll cage in a position to pick up such loads placed on the pan hard bar brackets, but in this situaton we couldn't. However the body, subframe and floor pan at the rear is no where near strong enoungh to concentrate the loads of pan hard bar in any one spot, so it has to be carefully planned and constructed, especially so in a street car like this that we cannot put a full roll cage in.

I mean, for some applications, it isn't just a bolt up, but rather it takes some effort and planning.Back in the day Group C racing one of the tricks to get the Holden Torana to handle nice and be more predictable in corners was to fit a rear pan hard bar to give much better diff locating than the OEM triangulated 4 bars offered. I can't tell you exactly how you measure it and what shims you'd use, but it all depends on how far back the throwout bearing is from the clutch forks.Īll-in-all, you can make it work, but it isn't exactly easy. With the transmissions usually ran with the LSx blocks, you have a hydraulic clutch slave which sits inside the bellhousing on the tranny main shaft. And with that, I'm really not sure how you'd overcome that. The only thing which would be of issue with running it on an LS engine is the spacing of the throwout bearing to the clutch forks. This is not an issue as people do it all the time. 113 degrees is a great amount, especially if you are looking for increased horsepower. The lobe separation it provides is fantastic, and allows the engine to perform in the upper rev range.

The only thing is, the LS engines have a slightly different bolt pattern where one of the bolts is offset, which means you'd only get five bolts located to mount the transmission. The COMP Cams 54-470-11 LSR Rectangular Port 235/251 Hydraulic Roller is the best camshaft for 350 Chevy overall because it performed the best when tested. The flywheel will not fit the Gen III/IV SBC's (LSx based engines), because the crank has a completely different bolt pattern on it.Īs far as the NV3500 transmission, this should have the standard old style bolt pattern on it, which means it will bolt directly to any SBC design up through Gen IV (LSx based). This flywheel will also not work with the two piece oil seal crank, so leaves out the older Gen 1 SBC's. I was wrong in my comment in that it is weighted the same between the V8 and V6 engines of this type, so you're good to go there. I believe these are the engines with the one piece oil seal, so the newer V6/V8 of the SBC Gen 1 design. As far as the flywheel itself goes, you can fit it behind the engines of the following vehicles: CHEVROLET BLAZER 1995-2004
