The crossmember is yet to be done, but it will be custom-made.

ok. Thanks for the heads up. Mite be able to bring a vs 5l spak ute home next week. If everything looks ok i mite stick the motor/ t5 into the gse. Not 100% keen on the banana manifold. But the torque power dual hi rise would be nice.
Shouldve snaped up a walky manifold when they were half afordable.

pulled the gear box off the efi 5L motor the other day & looks like Im up for a new clutch. flywheel should machine up ok.

Searching online it seems there are diference with clutchs between VN - Vs,  why im not sure something about flywheel pcd? 

Can anyone recomend a good replacement clutch?

 

Phil - Im on the look out for a Wagon fuel tank, are VN - Vs wagon tanks the same?

if not which 1 will fit the Monza?

[MONZA1]

I know sedan tanks will bolt in, but sure about the wagon.  Logic would say yes, however the filler neck is different & will need to be modified.  If you can find an EFI VK or VL 6-cyl tank it will be a simpler process.

 

ps. Good to hear you're making progress.

ok, i thought because of the spare wheel compartment a wagon tank had to used?.
The fuel tank that came out the vs ute is in really good condition, but i guess they should be as they are protected from the element better then the others. 1st time ive seen one.
I wonder if they are the same as sedan?

[MONZA1]

Oops, I didn't make that very clear.  Yes, you need a wagon tank.  A VN - VS Commodore sedan tank will go in a VB - VL Commodore, so I was guessing a VN - VS wagon tank would go in the Monza, apart from the need to modify the filler.  Just a guess though.  The VK or VL tank is a sure thing, but maybe if you go to a wrecker you can have a look.  Sorry for the confusion.

the guy i bought the wagon tank off said the pump does not work.
But my plan was to maybe use the sender & pump off the vs v8 ute tank.

If never owned an injected car before nor seen a internal pump 1st hand.
It almost looks the v6 & v8 pump are the same..

It was sounding tempting until I saw the price!! 

[YELLAcakeu308]

wonder if someone will ever remanufacture the walky manifold?
Thore whipple kits look & sound awesome, i wonder how long a standard 5l can put up with 10psi?

[YELLAcakeu308]
