Well you think 4 grand is dear l think its very cheap . Get a price on efi conversion with all epa req being to 1985 vk commodore emissions spec'sand mods you will find out it will cost you fitted with parts $2500 min at any work shop you drive into. Then you have got $1500 on diff And tail shart conversion and if l keep on adding up things it will keep on going up and up .so you'll find that this is cheap clean torana to buy if l sale if don't sale .l will keep on having fun with my torana's and l will try all challenges in modifitions nothing can"t been done abit of thinking anything can be done .its not about money its about trying things as hobbyand having fun.

I am the new owner, I like getting torana's and fixing them so they are back on the road.
Old holdens never die they just get modified.

I would like to see it go to someone that will enjoy and apperciate all the work which has gone into this conversion.

Then i will find another project to restore..

Hi Grant

Their is a bit to the conversion when i get a chance i will write something up, but any forum member is more then welcome to contact me for information.

It took us 3 days to do the whole conversion but that is a proper job but can be rushed in a day, But will not meet the epa requirments and to tune engine properley..
