You can't beat a V8 on an engine stand.....love it. Now the red top for my cavalier is cleared mine, I need to put one on it just to look at

OMFG you sly devil, I had no idea such awesomeness was afoot!

That's going to be SO FRICKING SWEET!

Not expecting much if any extra power from the ITBs to be honest as I won't spin super high, but I hope they make a nice noise and the pedal feel should be something else. It would be rude not to stick a bigger cam in later if all goes to plan, although I'm not sure what too big is on a 5.7l.

I really like the poly engine and trans mounts, you can definitely feel the tautness in the response and you fight the t56 less. I wouldn't be surprised if most monaros needed new mounts within the next few years, so they're worth considering (though I think some may hate them).

This is awesome to hear, as I have some ready to put on (well, I window welded a new stock trans mount which is meant to be a good compromise, but have poly motor mounts)

Definitely, thanks again for your help - real shame their bits are hard to get into the UK.
