I can imagine that would be a very hard thing to pull off. One of the downsides of an expensive paintjob I guess...

It only took 1week to mod make and fit it all up
We had a engineer make the blower pully $ 150
He can run to belts if needed.

air cleaner out the bonnet and all aproved by QLD
I am still trying to get a handle on some of your laws over there. Why wouldn't the air cleaner be allowed. I have a mate with a tunnel rammed 308 in his LC and its completely legal. You can still see the road afterall.

What a silly rule.(In my opinion anyway.) A car looks bloody good for instance if you have a tunnel ram, twin carbs and a bug catcher out the bonnet. Whay cover that up.
Would queensland be one of the tougher states to have mods done?
Basically over here you can do anything to a car and have it leaglly on the road as long as it is certified. For example if you transplanted a 454ci BBC into a LC you would have to take it to a certifier who checks that it was done properly, ie the fabricated engine mounts have been welded correctly.

you might want to be careful running that blower at 13,000rpm ... i have heard that anything over 10,000rpm and the teflon coating on the rotors starts to delaminate and eventually will probably pass through the motor!
