Although to conflict with what could be expected from the dealership floor to a (2006) perspective.
I want to add a COME Racing 400ci alloy block as the power plant, 9 inch diff and a set of Custom made 8inch front and 9inch rear sprint masters as upgraded additions. At this point I am not sure on the gear box. If and where possible I would like to stick with/retain the M21 box (strengthed) for the driveline. Add the 36 gallon tank.
GTR XU-2
Using the above link as a starting point.
Forum members/avid readers will/may ask why a genuine GTR, why not take it back to original. For me, I have to do this with a genuine GTR as to do it with and XU-1 would be unforgiveable and to do it with an 'S' would not be suitable.
Further to my rationale, my passion is to own, preserve and present prime examples of the golden era of the Torana from 1967 -1974. Original examples of the 69 HB Brabham, LC & LJ GTRs & XU-1s. The XU-2 added to the stable as a prime example of direction lost due to GMH's blundering, caused by Federal Government scare tactics of 1972. I am almost there.
I hate to admit but I get around in a TA four-door as the every day driver.
Your thoughts on the above would be most appreciated and a starting point??
