Very impressive... love the donor cars look too.

Have a friend who has a Monaro (he used to have an Ultima) and he raves about the car and thinks the engine is awsome, so I can only imagine how impressive your machine will be.

Any idea what the weight distribution will be like?

I think its great - I saw a video of a V8 Focus and thought wouldn't it be great to have something like that - I imagine you'll have some fun with the DVLA?
